Michael Bisping recently took to his YouTube channel to discuss a possible Jose Aldo vs. Petr Yan rematch. The video came following Jose Aldo's third consecutive bantamweight victory at UFC Vegas 44 this past weekend.

The former UFC middleweight champion also addressed Aldo's ability to continue putting in top performances despite his veteran status.

"He's trying to become the bantamweight champion. It is a passion that burns brightly within him to be the bantamweight champion and what a story that would be. Now we know, he fought Petr Yan for the belt last year on Fight Island, didn't go his way, got stopped in the fourth round in a relatively one-sided performance but still, bad night at the office. Every fight is different. Remember, I fought Luke Rockhold the first time and I lost. The second time I fought I beat him, knocked him out in the first round. So there's no reason that Jose Aldo couldn't beat him in a rematch and that's what he wants. Before he retires, he wants to lay claim to being the bantamweight champion of the world. Two-division champion, defended the belt many times... he would go down literally as one the greatest of all time and rightly so."
