      Amir Khan he wants a big payday before retiring the guy is a warrior and Dana has said bisping agreed to do the ultimate fighter with whoever won out of romero vs whittaker, romero has been caught using peds and it wouldn't do anything for him beating romero it will shut people up but tell me would you rather fight a guy just as dangerous as gsp or get the biggest payday of your career I don't even need your reply you would try make the most money for your family, you aren't even a fighter but you try judge fighters without thinking about their reasons you just say the same shit without even thinking.

      Amir Khan whittaker is the number 1 contender and he agreed to let bisping fight gsp whilst he heals romero got outclassed by whittaker and bisping accepted a fight with either one according to dana he was going to coach tuf against romero or whittaker romero got his ass beat now bisping gets his biggest payday all bisping has to do to beat romero is use his footwork to not move into a flying knee his cardio, boxing kickboxing and toughness would take romero into deep waters romero is a cheat why would bisping fight the guy when he has bad history with peds.

      It's a credit to how high level the UFC really is for a guy like Bisping who pretty much steam-rolled European contenders left and right, won every belt in every other organisation and then enters the UFC and it took 10 long years to finally make it to the top. Phew. What a tough sport!

The Scottish, English and Welsh lords banded together and came over to Ireland and fucked shit up. Weren't just the English. And you realise that "mcgregor" isn't an Irish name. It's a Scottish name, so mcgregors bloodline comes from Britain. 😂 he was only born in Ireland. His roots and blood are in Britain. 😂

      You never really see Dana show emotion when he wraps the belt around a fighter, but he was smiling like a kid with a new toy the entire time. Dana genuinely loves Michael Bisping. I remember a story that Bisping told about being flat broke leading up to his first UFC fight against Schaefer and Christmas was coming up and Dana calls him and says " Hey Michael, I know your waiting for your fight , how are you on money?" And Michael is clearly a proud man so he says he's doing good, but Dana was like I'm sending you a check anyways. And a week later a check for 10k arrived just in time and allowed him to give his kids a nice Christmas.

Bisping does have a big mouth, but that's just the way he has always been since he was a kid growing up. You can't change who you are just to please other people. What I love most about Bisping is that when everyone would tell him that he couldn't do something, he went out there in the world and made it happen for himself. He never complained about money, or having to fight on short notice. He took the opportunities he had, and he made the most out of them, and he became a legend.

      Among other things he's put the power back into Bispings punches.
      Mike used to have a lot of knockouts in his early career but when he came to the UFC he focused more on being light on his feet and using movement.
      Too focused. He was never really set for long enough to get good power into his punches.
      Parillo has clearly worked on that to great effect and hopefully we'll see more of the same.
      Not necessarily against Hendo though. That's a dangerous game to play with Hendo no matter who you are.
      He can beat Hendo. He just has to fight smart. Real smart. lol.

    In all of the years I'm watching MMA, this was one of, if not the greatest moments I have ever seen. After seeing Bisping fall short and keep coming back, was brilliant. Still think Bisping has more heart than any other fighter I've ever watched and also think his style is one that could have beaten Izzy. Great moment. 👊👊👌

    People trash talk Bisping about his loses and that's all they can say. All of the greats have loses. Bisping is as tough as they get he fought in the UFC 11 times with a detached retina and he won a world title in the process on 2 weeks notice in dramatic fashion technically with one eye. He headlined UFC 217 against GSP yeah he lost but he fought again 21 days later! He backed down from no one. No one can ever question his heart and toughness. He's a prime example of a true Fighter! As a Brit he's done me proud.

      I have tons of hate for Bisping because of his loud mouth but now I realized that he only done it to pleased Dana White...I also realized that he has one of the most amazing career in UFC history...Never have boring fights, never duck anyone, fights even with injury, never makes excuses in defeat, always clean, never gives up until he won the belt and he has avenge all of his major loses....Now he is one of my favorite commentator because he is funny and quick thinker....

    • @dank1j

      I trash talk Bisping because he is a mouthy pain in a**. Henderson heard so much griping about that first flying Hendo finish that he hesitated in the 2nd fight instead of doing the same finish as the first fight. Bisping has 2 claims to fame: psyching out his competition in TUF and knocking out Rockhold. The rest is just running his yap. But he does a good job in the UFC studio shows, so good for him. "Bisping: I'll be champion one day" and he was champ for a day or so.
