UFC legend Michael Bisping claimed Conor McGregor’s ‘best days are long past’ - but could still knockout champion Charles Oliveira.
McGregor has not won in two years, and currently has three losses from his last four fights.
Michael Bisping, UFC legend, claimed Conor McGregor's "best days are long past"
The UFC hasn't held UFC gold since 2018, but the Irishman never defended the lightweight or featherweight belts.
He has teased a title shot despite his losing form.
Former middleweight champion Bisping, 43 believes that Oliveira 32 is a worthy opponent for McGregor.
Joe Rogan said that Conor's best days were probably over. It's impossible to stay at the top for ever.
"I will tell you this: If there was a person you would put Charles Oliveira against in the top five, it would be him.
"Charles is hittable, and Conor can still f***ing hits. He's quick and Charles is good.

"That's -- I don’t think I’m capable of dealing with the world if it happens. Oh my god.
It might happen. He still has that left hand, he still has power and speed."
McGregor, who had broken his tibia against Dustin Poirier in July, was forced to have surgery last year.
He said that he has made steady progress while rehabbing and that the setback would be a minor bump on his long-storied road.
McGregor posted this on Instagram: "Day 3 backboxing without any issue!"
"Soon, this injury will be a distant memory in my Martial Arts journey.
"No one can have a smooth road. But winning is about having a positive attitude, determination, and hard work.
"I am back, and it only gets better."
