No. 2-ranked former UFC middleweight champion Chris Weidman recently called Michael Bisping’s UFC 204 title defense against Dan Henderson ‘embarrassing’.
Weidman and Bisping have gone back and forth in the media throughout the last few months, and the ex-champion, who hasn’t competed since surrendering his title to Luke Rockhold last December, has accused “The Count” of ducking him. Appearing on a recent edition of the UFC Unfiltered podcast, Bisping fired back at Weidman, calling the New York native a ‘douchebag’:
“I mean of that f*cking whiner, that cry baby Chris Weidman wants to do it, then I’m more than happy to do it,” Bisping said. “If he gets past Yoel Romero next month, let’s do it soon. I’m happy to. He thinks I’m ducking him, he’s f*cking crazy. I’ve never ducked anybody in my life, I’m certainly not going to start with that f*cking douchebag.”
Not only is the Brit open to a fight with Weidman, but he feels as if he’d finish the former collegiate wrestler if the two ever meet:
“So, if he wants to do it, he can come out here and he can try to wrestle and do that, but he’ll find himself getting punched in the face repeatedly, then…I’m going to finish Chris Weidman that’s for sure.”
This potential clash could end up taking place sooner rather than later, as Weidman is set to face off with No. 4-ranked Yoel Romero at November 12’s UFC 205 from Madison Square Garden in New York with the winner possibly receiving the next shot at the title.
If Bisping and Weidman do end up fighting, who would you pick to come out on top?
