Michael Bisping is a longtime veteran in the UFC. The former champion who is rumored to retire after one last bout spared no words when it came to the young bjj prospect who just made his debut in mma. Even though Danis was able to back up his words and emerge triumphant from his Bellator fight Bisping was thoroughly unimpressed.
From Michael Bisping’s official podcast (via Sports Joe):
“Not only is he Conor McGregor’s jiu-jitsu coach, he’s seeming to try to morph and copy McGregor’s antics. Certainly his clothing. Conor does wear some f*cking really nice, cool s*it and Dillon Danis is like the poor, second-hand, overwashed, hand-me-down version because his clothes are f*cking terrible. But, he’s trying to be Conor so hard, it’s laughable. He even said, ‘After this weekend, I will own Bellator.’ That sounds vaguely like a line where Conor said, ‘I will own boxing.’ He probably knows that this kind of behavior, as it did with me, encourages more people to want to see you get knocked out than win. But at the end of the day, it doesn’t matter. The bulls*it that he’s doing, the s*it that he’s spewing is working.”
