★ Bisping (and UFC) Say He's a Legend. Seriously?

[Underdog bjj jp]

He's a vet but I wouldn't consider him a legend

 

[Jorge Luis Borges]

I agree with this apart from the last part..... none of those guys ever got close to the belt, so Bisping is a few levels above them imo

I thought I acknowledged that rather clearly.

A legend is a complicated term in MMA. I would put him in the same category of fighters as Mir. He had a lot of fights and fought most top opponents in the divisions. But his record is not great enough to put him in the same category as Silva or GSP.

nobody knows bisping.

In England. The dude is a legend. Full stop.

If he's such a legend in england how come all the recent BT Sports adverts for MMA just show McGregor highlights and dont include him ? He's not even the face of mma in his own country.

I thought I acknowledged that rather clearly.

yeah but you still think that keeps him on that level. I disagree with that

other than that I totally agreed with your post

because Conor is a superstar

Bisping has been the face of MMA in the UK for a decade, but Conor is Conor lol

New article just pointed out Bisping, at the end of his career, for the first time, has a losing streak.

The stuff of legends!

(Streak only because of his snap decision to save a fight card after Silva was busted for steroids.)
