Bisping doesn't believe Puryear will end his career if he beats Makhachev

Michael Bisping, former UFC middleweight champion, has reacted to the news that Dustin Puryear may end his career after his fight with Islam Makhachev.

"If Dustin wins, he'll stay for the defense of the belt. For example, I already had problems with my eye during the course of my career. And my wife asked me, "You finally made it to a title fight, are you ready to end your career regardless of the outcome?" I said: "Honey, if I lose - I'm out. But if I win, hell no. Are you out of your mind? This is the most money-making time!" So I think Dustin will keep fighting if he wins. If he loses, it will be a good moment and an opportunity to say goodbye. There will be a lot of emotion as Dustin has given MMA a lot. He was the real face of the sport and fought with all his heart," Bisping said on the Believe You Me podcast.
