Bisping recently took to his YouTube channel to give insights regarding his next fight. During the video, he said: ” Jim Miller’s face was all kind of busted up. It was red-marked up, and he’ll be sore tomorrow as well. But regardless of him being sore, he’s still down to fight on UFC 300, and he might just go up against my commentator partner Paul Felder, okay. Felder might be coming out of retirement. Jim Miller spoke about it on the microphone, okay. And I, for one, would love to see that okay. It’s not too long of a turnaround, about three months or four months. If anyone can do it, Jim Miller can do it.
