I like the way Usman carries himself, being able to see it was a beautifull kick isnt something most man could do. But the same goes for Leon. May the best man win!

[@noelnoni7310]

Bisping likes Usman more than he likes Leon. Leon unintentionally diminished Bisping’s claim of being a British champ by saying that he didn’t win it from UK but he won it in America because Bisping left England to train in America. Leon did aswell but returned and won it UK based

[@bradderzzcayford6929]

Bisping is such a valuable asset to BT sport. Always nails the interviews in ways a non fighter simply cannot, or even a fighter for that matter.

Fair Play Mike Excellent interview

[@coldestbeer]

He's British, Usman is fighting the only other British champ in UFC history other than Mike, so hes probably just saying fair play for being neutral and inbiased

4:40 is the exact reason I’ll always admire Usman. I’m rooting for Edwards again as a fellow Brit, but the fact that Usman can humbly say that “as a fan it was a beautiful kick” says a lot about the man.

[@leeeverett7835]

Oh yeah it's going to be shocking for the former pound for pound number 1 to win 😅

[@jeffreynapisa122]

If there was ever a testament of heart and will, that would have to be Michael Bisping for a guy to get knocked out a few times, then loses eye, then come back and become world champion that is an amazing story and those things Legends are made of.

[@xbrandnewx]

Bisping brings out the best in fighters in interviews cause he can relate through personal experience, must be so much easier to open up to someone when they have had the career Bisping has. Especially when talking about the knockout, made it more of a funny story than a negative experience that should hang over him going forward.

Man, great interview by Bisping. He's able to connect on a deeper level than most because he has experienced one of the most vicious Ko's in history and still came back to eventually win the title.

[@romie426]

Love listening to the champs. Good stuff boys, Godspeed and good luck Saturday!

[@panditmami3544]

The funny thing is in contrast to what he’s saying, Kamaru was very attached to the P4P hype train. He talked about fighting Canello, going up two weigh classes to fight Jan, all in the name of P4P. In some ways, that P4P status was a bad distraction to a seemingly dominant champ.

[@abc...7407]

A guy can't challenge himself? He wanted to box Canello for the money dumbass. And he wanted to fight Jan rather than fight Izzy as MW; after all he's a wrestler and LHW hardly has fighters like that. It had nothing to do with a P4P status. Stop making up bs assumptions.

[@leroythompson8942]

Yes yes 👏🏾

[@IBanishUndead]

Leon took all those opportunities away because now no one is interested in Canelo vs Usman when before it could have been how the hype was surrounding May vs McGregor.

[@panditmami3544]

@@IBanishUndead so true. It’s so fascinating to see how quickly things can turnaround.

[@elcrucius]

To be fair, that could also have just been a way to generate hype / make ppl tune in for fights. Hes not the typical lay and pray wrestler but even he has a little trouble selling his fights and maxing his PPV points compared to other pure strikers. And that canelo thing was just all smoke and mirrors instigated by ali lol i think usman knew there was no chance in hell hes ever getting the canelo fight.
