Rashad Evans reportedly was in line to to face Michael Bisping at next month’s UFC Fight Night 127 event in London. It seemed like a foregone conclusion. Everyone thought it was happening. “I thought so, too, man,” Evans told MMAjunkie Radio on Monday. “I got the call, and I thought it was going to happen, but things didn’t work out on the negotiating side between the UFC and Bisping.” Indeed, it was Bisping (30-9 MMA, 20-9 UFC) who called off what would’ve been a rematch . He had teased potentially competing at the UFC Fight Pass-streamed March 17 event from The O2 in London. Bisping, 38, has expressed an interest in fighting once more before retirement, preferably in England
