It is #disrespectful and unprofessional to illegally knee someone in the face while they have their knees on the ground @bisping

here is the video of him spitting on the corner.

little boys and girls to understand that cheating like @bisping doesn’t pay. Contrary to actual outcome of his last fight.

1. Because Jorge I my friend 2. Because I hate cheaters 3. Because I want to fight bisping

@bisping I often re-watch fights in my division to try and learn something new. Takeaway from your fight was @Jorge_Conquista is awesome.

I will give my fight purse to charity if @ufc @strikeforce lets me fight @bisbing,

I’d never say that to another person, I’d never say that to another colleague, I’d never say that to another fighter. So yet again, it’s just a demonstration of his character.
