Michael Bisping’s last chance for relevance is up next

Jonathan Snowden @mmaencyclopedia

Cung Le looks huge! A guy in his 40’s, bigger and more cut than he was in his professional prime! HARD WORK! DEDICATION!

Ariel Helwani @arielhelwani

•Le is bleeding. Also he can’t open his right eye. Seems like he was accusing Bisping of poking him. Need to see replay. Bisping gaining mo’.

•Le busted open now. Goldie confirms via the truck that it was a punch, not a poke, that nailed Le in the eye.

Ben Fowlkes @benfowlkesMMA

Le is a mess. At this point, can’t even blame him for low blows. He can only guess at where Bisping’s groin is.

Roxanne Modafferi @Roxyfighter

MMA is merciless.

Yves Edwards @thugjitsumaster

Man I thought @CungLe185 would be backing away in this 3rd but he’s being aggressive. He’s tough as fuck. #BothEyesSwollen

Chuck Mindenhall @ChuckMindenhall

Bisping’s corner is squeegeeing Le’s blood off of his thorax.

Ariel Helwani @arielhelwani

Michael Bisping wins via fourth-round TKO. He then yells out to the crowd, “I am going f*cking nowhere. F*cking nowhere.”

Jeremy Botter @jeremybotter

Well that was an awesome Michael Bisping, you guys

Jordan Breen @jordanbreen

Five-rounders rule. Bisping just needed those few extra seconds to go from “won a fun slugfest on points” to “wasted Le with a Tekken combo”

Brian Stann @BrianStann

It didn’t pay to cheat for once, good start to the day.

Aljamain Sterling @FunkMasterAljO

The sport where guys don’t flop! #UFCMacao Cung Le you are the man brotha! Love your striking style. Rest up and enjoy the family time.

Michael Carroll @MJCflipdascript

Michael Bisping earns his 9th KO/TKO UFC victory, tying Rich Franklin and Matt Brown for 4th most in UFC history.
