Bisping is the pride of England tbh, can't think of any other athlete/personality that represents us so well

[Coach-MG]

Met him at the open workouts...he really does

[pinhead]

I like the Bisping of today A HELL OF A LOT MORE than the Bisping 3 years ago. I don't really know who to root for for this fight. Part of me is leaning towards Stann but I think a Bisping vs Silva fight would be more interesting than a Stann vs Silva fight. Just my opinion.

[burlhorse]

was shocked to Matt Hamill back at the weigh ins-great guy!!

[FightLiveIivefight]

WATCH OUT GUYS WE'RE DEALING WITH A BADASS OVER HERE

[sduff]

These are great, but why are they so short?

[jeradshaw]

It's not brainwashing. Everyone knows they are lies. Him and Bisping are not that far off from each other. They both hype fights in 2 different ways. They both know different angles to get to the American public, and do so in fine fashion.

[NikevsJordansxD]

Bisping is the Katt Williams of the UFC

[karan]

Burt has a cane?? hope that dude is alright man he is huge for these guys before fights

[robbandj]

i fink forrest griffin, but yeah i love bisping too!

[timmybus]

why is everyone following the bandwagon and liking bisping now?

[nextlvlroy]

Technically, he's typing, not speaking.
Unless he is talking while he types, which would be a bit questionable.

[tighisabored]

the last time i tried to like bisping he hit rivera with an illegal knee and spit on his trainers. dont fail me again mike

[shogunjobu]

burt sugar with a a hard guy for ufc to replace

[fewhavestrength]

why is he using exercise to cut weight, when there are non-energy expiring ways out there?!?

[FightLiveIivefight]

some people just don't have lives.

[UndoneBBroken]

to think everyone use to hate this guy lmao.

[MazzleBazzle]

He and they deserve it. Bisping had respect for Rivera before they fought, and all of a sudden Rivera makes these cheap videos mocking Bisping and his family. Bisping didn't do anything to deserve it. Bisping has a good sense of humour though, just don't put his family in the equation.

[dbreiden]

Mike I respect you, I really really do... But I still want to see Stann put you to sleep...
