De två mellanviktarna Michael Bisping och Gegard Mousasi har under de senaste månaderna haft ett och annat att säga om varandra i sociala medier och diverse intervjuer. Under gårdagens avsnitt av ”UFC Tonight” fick båda chansen att säga sina åsikter ansikte mot ansikte när Mousasi gästade programmet.
– “You’ve been trashing the middleweight division a lot, myself included,” sa Bisping till Mousasi och fortsatte, “When I was trying to fight for the title — and I’ve been in the UFC for 11 years — when I lost some key fights, I took that on the chin. I didn’t blame the UFC, I didn’t blame other fighters. And you’ve lost some key match-ups, but yet you feel the need to talk smack about me, to talk smack about the UFC, why not just say ‘I lost that fight, I’ll focus on winning some more fights’?”
– “It’s my character,” svarade Mousasi. “I like to complain, and what can I say? I have a long career, I think I earned my shot already.”
– “But you did get knocked out by Uriah Hall,” sa Bisping snabbt.
“Well that was fluke, you said it yourself” svarade Mouasi snabbt. “It happened, every time the best fighter doesn’t [always] win. It happened with you and Luke Rockhold.”
