Michael Bisping aims to get back into the win column next month when he takes on Cung Le at UFC Fight Night 48, and if he does so successfully, he may already have another opponent waiting in the wings. Bisping and former Strikeforce middleweight champion Luke Rockhold have long traded barbs over social media, and the Brit couldn't help but throw in his two cents when asked about Rockhold on Wednesday's edition of UFC Tonight.

"When Luke Rockhold is done making a douchebag out of himself hanging out at pool parties with teenagers, if he wants to get back to business and step into the Octagon, I'm the man for the job," Bisping said. "After his last fight, he called me out. But then he said he hurt his little pinky toe. If his toe's healed up, and he wants to get back to business, we can go toe to toe, or pinky to pinky."

Not surprisingly, Rockhold took it upon himself to respond on Thursday, and the two middleweights ended up trading shots over Twitter for a majority of the afternoon.
