UFC middleweight champion, Michael Bisping

Britain's first UFC champion will defend his middleweight title against the Canadian later this year.

A date for the contest, which had caused chaos in the middleweight division, has yet to be announced, much to the annoyance of many in the mixed martial arts world.

UFC president Dana White are keen for the fight to take place on the final card of International Fight Week, which culminates on July 8.

St-Pierre, however, is looking for his comeback fight to take place in September.

'GSP's' desire to fight in September coincides with UFC 216, which takes place in the two-time welterweight champion's home country of Canada on September 9.

Bisping, who was last in action at UFC 204 back in November, doesn't plan on hanging around that long and has told St-Pierre to quit stalling on signing the paperwork.

“So long story short it looks as if GSP is trying to push for a later date (July 8). I have heard rumors of that a while ago from Ariel Helwani," Bisping said during the latest episode of his Believe You Me podcast.

I heard that he wanted like September or October and that is what the UFC told me as well. But I am just throwing it out there right now.

"If he (GSP) wants to wait until September or October, then he can go find himself another opponent. Because I call the shots. Without sounding like an asshole, it is my belt. I am the champion, and I am not willing to sit around until September or October.

"This fight was discussed in January. You know a fight camp only takes 8 weeks. Or six weeks. So fighting in September or October is ridiculous. July 8 is the date. I may be a little bit flexible and be willing to go a little past that date if needed.

"But I want to fight international fight week July 8. So Georges St-Pierre, get it together. Stop doing your f*cking gymnastics. Stop doing your backflips and whatever it is. Let’s do this buddy.

"Sign the paperwork. You want it. You sat there at the press conference. You talked big. So sign the god damn paperwork. It is as simple as that!"

If St-Pierre decides July is too early to fight him, Bisping is more than happy to defend the 185lb title against Yoel Romero.

"If he’s not ready then I guess Yoel Romero gets his title shot! Listen I am not afraid of Yoel Romero," 'The Count' added.

"If GSP wants to fight then of course, there is a great storyline there. The fight would do great business. But I am not willing to sit around and he’s not calling the shots. I am the champ.”

“I am not willing to wait a year for Georges St-Pierre to fight me. I might as well do two fights in that one year and still make the same money.”
