Bisping: Most of the UFC are ‘posers’
Michael Bisping: “A lot of the UFC roster are. They’re all posers. I’m a real fighter. They’re ‘athletes.’ I ain’t an athlete. I’m a fighter, and you’re going to see that tomorrow night.”
Michael Bisping is the most active middleweight in the UFC in the last decade and has more wins than any middleweight in UFC history.
This weekend he fights Luke Rockhold at UFC 199 for the middleweight title and recently spoke to the media about taking a last minute, and his thoughts on the mindset of most fighters in the UFC:
“I’ve never turned down a fight in my life,” Bisping said. “There’s not a single thing in this world that I do better than fighting, and since I was eight years old, I’ve always been a fighter. I really have. This is who I am as a person. I don’t need eight weeks. I think I can beat anybody in the world right now, whether it’s at the end of a training camp or not, and that’s what you have to be. Luke Rockhold isn’t the same person. He’s not cut from the same cloth as me. He’s a pretender. He’s a poser. A lot of the UFC roster are. They’re all posers. I’m a real fighter. They’re ‘athletes.’ I ain’t an athlete. I’m a fighter, and you’re going to see that tomorrow night.”
