Michael Bisping wants UFC 274 to have three title fights

Former UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping has provided his own blockbuster line-up for the May 7 card.

Apart from the two title fights that have already been confirmed, 'The Count' wants a fourth scrap between flyweight champion Deiveson Figueiredo and Brandon Moreno to take place at UFC 274.

In a video uploaded to his YouTube channel, Bisping said:

"Two title fights. Well, what’s better than two? We throw on the third. We throw on the third with the quadrilogy fight, okay? The [Figueiredo vs. Moreno] quadrilogy fight. So, you put that on, you’ve got three Brazilians, all defending titles, all on the same card, lots of storylines. It’ll be unbelievable.”

Watch Michael Bisping put forth his lineup for UFC 274 in the video below:

Figueiredo won the flyweight title back from Moreno at UFC 270 last weekend via unnaimous decision. With one win each and a draw, the trilogy between the two 125-pounders now stands at 1-1-1.
