Michael Bisping slams ‘internet bitches’ who claim he’s ducking UFC fights, gives Georges St-Pierre (another) deadline

Michael Bisping has heard it all.

From claims of being afraid to step into the cage against Middleweight bulldozer Yoel Romero, to playing on his knee injury to hold on to his Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) strap, there isn’t anything “The Count” hasn’t seen or heard in the media.

That said, the British brawler has had enough, as he took to The MMA Hour to relay a message to all of his critics and haters once and for all.

“It’s annoying because the general consensus, well not the general consensus, the little bitches on the internet are all talking shit like I’m trying to avoid fighters. May I remind everybody that I have had more fights in the UFC than any other human being on planet earth. I have more wins incidentally, as well,” said a fired up Bisping.

“So the fact that all of a sudden I am avoiding fighting is ridiculous. Another theory is that I am trying to hold on to my belt for as long as possible. If that were the case, then last time after I beat Rockhold, on that Monday, I was still hungover from the celebrating, I accepted a fight against Dan Henderson less than 48 hours after I won the fucking thing. So, I have more fights than anyone, I agreed to fight someone less than 48 hours after I won that belt, so it doesn’t stack up,” he reiterated.

Bisping was set to defend his 185-pound title against former welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre later this year, but nagging injuries to both men halted the bout. According to Bisping, it’s St-Pierre who no longer wants the fight.

At least that’s what UFC president Dana White has been feeding to “The Count.”

“I wanted to fight to ‘GSP’ — why wouldn’t I want to fight him, that’s the big business. He was the welterweight champion forever, that would be good for my legacy. Now Dana is saying he doesn’t want that fight, but Georges does want that fight, I know I want it. If they make the Georges thing happen, I am all in,” he said.

“Georges, if you are watching this, I have done everything I can. I have called Dana White, I have expressed my desire. Every time I talk on the phone with him I ask him, but he says ‘GSP’ doesn't want the fight, and that he wants to fight at Welterweight. So Georges, I’ve done everything I can, if you want it to happen, get on the phone and do fucking something.”

At the end of the day, Bisping is tired of all of the back-and-forth and say he could care less who he fights next and vows to put a beating on someone, anyone by year’s end.

“I’m sick of everybody saying I don’t want to fight. Honestly, who I fight next, I couldn’t give a shit. Whether it’s St-Pierre, Yoel Romero, Whittaker, I’m sick of the bullshit. I’ve got to fight, I’m training again. My knee is still very much giving me issues, but who cares, I’ve got to fight and I’m shaking off the cobwebs and getting ready. By the end of the year, one of those three is going to get it.”

And since Romero and Whittaker are set to face off for the interim division title this weekend (Sat., July 8, 2017) at UFC 213, Bisping has given St-Pierre until then to make something happen or kiss their fight goodbye.

Too late?
