Bisping talks as much trash as McGregor does. He has a huge ego, just like McGregor, he likes a good weigh in confrontation as much as McGregor, etc.
Yet, no body gives a shit about Michael Bisping and he is not a star.
This is a proof that being a colorful character alone will not get you anywhere. You gotta have what Dana calls "the It factor", whatever that factor is.
 
Defeating your opponent in impressive fashion helps a lot.

He doesn`t talk like Conor talks, he doesn`t think like Conor thinks and he doesn`t move like Conor moves.
 
Bisping wouldn't be anywhere near as popular as he is without his mic skills.

It's all about character, bisping is not as likable as Mcgoat and his wins except vs silva are not as notable either :)
 
Because Bisping was talking trash during the era where MMA fans were MMA fans

Conor appeared when MMA fans were clueless casuals
 
Bisping is one of the highest paid UFC fighters of all time, is an announcer on FS1, and is recognizable to virtually all MMA fans, so I'd say he is a star.
 
He's pretty popular TS.
 
Bisping has made stupid amounts of money by MMA standards.
He doesn`t talk like Conor talks, he doesn`t think like Conor thinks and he doesn`t move like Conor moves.
nor does he predict these things or change bum lives, although it would seem he stays ready so he doesn't have to get ready.
 
You are a living prove that the American education system is terribly flawed.

I believe he is well paid because of the UFC's desire to conquer the UK market, not because he is an international star.
