Michael Bisping wants to squash the beef that he has with Jorge Masvidal and has the perfect location to do so.
Their history dates all the way back to 2017 once Masvidal and Bisping ran into each other at the fighter hotel in New York City ahead of UFC 217. This is where they got into a second altercation the next day and since then, they have been trading words. There was even another altercation at UFC Shanghai.
Masvidal is slated to fight Darren Till in the headliner of the upcoming UFC London show. The former UFC middleweight champion took to his podcast where he offered to squash the beef while in the city.
“I hope I see him in London,” Bisping said on his Believe You Me podcast (H/T to MMAFighting). “I hope I see him in London so I can just walk over and say, ‘Hey, listen, can we just end this bullsh*t?’ Because as I’ve said, I don’t know the guy! I don’t know him and he doesn’t know me. I’m not against Masvidal anymore,” Bisping said. “I’ve got no issue with him. I never had.”
“Let’s see how he behaves in London. Now that I’m with ESPN and not Fox, when we used to travel to the arenas for Fox, Fox always put us up in a separate hotel – a very, very nice, five-star bougie hotel I might add. Now we’re in UFC hotel, so we’re surrounded by all the fighters and stuff like that. So no doubt I’ll be seeing him around fight week. So let’s see how all that goes. If there’s another interaction, if he’s trying to start a fight with me in the lobby like he did in New York, and in Shanghai, and in London. [But] I think that ship has sailed.”
Despite recent redemption in Bisping’s career featuring a late-career resurgence including wins over Anderson Silva, Luke Rockhold, and Dan Henderson. His last two fights didn’t go the way he wanted. Bisping lost to former UFC two-division champ Georges St-Pierre by submission in the main event of the UFC 217 last November.
