I got to work with him a few times for his Brian Stann camp. He was still playing the heel role a bit and liked to tease and fuck with people, but he was always laughing and always supportive when it mattered. I was a fan of his ever since and screamed at the top of my lungs when he knocked out cockhold.

Then find out he was fighting with one eye after he retired. Fucking legend!!!! Bisping is on the Mount Rushmore of MMA.

From all random clips i've seen of Michael Bisping, I have to respect and say he has a resilient, positive, and straight-shooter personality. Really stand up guy. To have lost his eye, go through so much adversity, and be as positive as he is, a protector, a provider for his family, and so playful with the other fighters, and retaining humor, despite all of it, he is a good man.

The true Cinderella man. He was once known to be the best fighter to never fight for a belt. His one chance at the end of his career with all the odds stacked against him he won. Also him jumping on the cage looking at Luke in a pile on the ground and yells "Fuck you" before screaming at the crown is the best mma celebration of all time and that moment alone should be in the hall of fame.
