Is there a more gallant fighter than Michael Bisping? ‘The Count’ lost his middleweight belt to welterweight G.O.A.T. Georges St-Pierre at UFC 217 on November 4, 2017. When Anderson Silva failed a PED test and was removed from his fight with Kelvin Gastelum at UFC Fight Night 122 on November 26 in Shanghai, Bisping stepped up.

Bisping was given a 30-day medical suspension from the New York State Athletic Commission, but that duration can be changed with a doctor’s clearance. The NYSAC has reduced the suspension, and Bisping can now fight.

Bisping will set a new record in Shanghai for UFC fights, with 29. And he may have set a new Biggest Brass Balls record.
