Former UFC champion Michael Bisping recently confronted a thief in Paris – after the individual stole his wife’s bag, during their visit to the French capital.
Bisping, who was in town for UFC Fight Night 243, took some time to explore the city with his wife, Rebecca, following the event.
And, while enjoying breakfast in the picturesque Montmartre area, the couple’s peaceful morning took a turn when a thief snatched Rebecca’s bag.
In a video shared on X, Bisping shared details about the incident:
I’m here at the world-famous Hall of Mirrors at the Palace of Versailles having a walk around.
But earlier today, I had to stop a crime.Sitting there having breakfast with Rebecca in the streets of Montmartre and some little s**t snatches Rebecca’s bag, runs away.
The former middleweight champion quickly caught up to the culprit:
I get a hold of him, he had the bag already hidden like a towel.
Got the bag off him… Didn’t do anything to him, got the bag back.He was sh***ing his pants, poor guy.
Despite catching the thief, Bisping chose to let him go, but not without a “lesson”:
I let him go, turned around, boom, just gave him a nice kick up the a**.
Some little shit snatched Rebecca’s bag. Not on my watch 😂 pic.twitter.com/P41yBNs2V2
