At the evening’s post-event press conference, Bisping said he believes he made a strong case for a victory in the judges’ eyes.
“IIt was a close fight. Personally, I think I won rounds one and two.”
“I mean, Wanderlei did a great job. Congratulations to him. Full credit to him on winning the fight.”
“Personally, apart from the guillotine – and I got dropped in the third round – but apart from the guillotine attempt off the takedown in the second round, as far as round two, I really didn’t have any offense come my way. I felt I clearly won those two rounds.”
“I’m a little annoyed, you know? I don’t come here to put on a good performance. I come here to win. Winning is what’s important.”
“I trained my ass off. My team works really hard. We don’t put all this effort in to lose to a good fight or a good performance. Yes, Wanderlei is a legend, and I was very proud to be in there with him, but I’m a little disappointed right now.”
“I’m healthy. I’m good to go. I feel like I could do another three rounds right now. … I’d love to get a rematch with Wanderlei someday, but I want to keep fighting top guys.”
“I lost tonight. I’m pissed off about that. I don’t train this hard to get losses. But I want to get in there ASAP and fight another good name and get back to winning ways.”
“I take this very seriously, This is my life. I don’t think anyone realizes how hard I train.”
“I’ll be coming back strong, believe me.”
