Media Michael Bisping confirms the reason behind his lackluster loss at UFC 217

[B-Level]

there you have it, Bisping was suffering from torn ribs on top of only having vision in one eye.

Mod Edit to include what Bisping said in full via @Shaddows

Bisping noted he was injured and that it impaired him a little (his movement) on first round, but also said that he was ok until the third round when he got caught and choked and made no excuse about it.
Said it was a great job by GSP.

Call out a smaller fighter retired for 4 years and then make excuses publically after he put you to sleep?

 

[Schaub]

"I stomped you before and I will stomp you again...You can complain about your rib. I'm sure your rib did hurt. Your rib is inside of a coward."

- Chael P. Sonnen (the P stands for undefeated) on Anderson's rib.

Obligatory

he lost because he fought gsp, who is better than he is in just about every way. the only thing that would change if bisping had 2 eyes is that now he’d be able to see himself lose in 3d.

”Confirms”

Overeem CONFIRMS Stipe DID tap at UFC 203.

Pathetic.

GSP only takes the fight if he knows he’s going to win.

 

[HHJ]

Its one of my favorite GSP wins because he really had to aggressivley take it or get stopped himself.

 

[Frank McEdgar]

GSP only takes the fight if he knows he’s going to win.

He defended the belt so many times in the UFC.

He fought who the UFC told him to.

Wait, wasn’t GSP Dealing with Colitis during that same fight?

so both issues between the fighters even things out right?

well there it is gsp beat a ribless one eyes bisping

 

[WingzOfRedemption]

I loved to see beeesbeeng get the strap but he was very underwhelming as champ, him losing the belt to a returning gsp was the most exciting moment of his championship reign

 

[Busgosu]

Lol, it only took him 4 years to come up with that excuse. Now that's what I call quick wit!
