RIVERA FAILS TO BACK CHATTER

Last Sunday 'down under,' viewers saw the co-main event between end midway through the second round.

Prior to this fight, Rivera released a barrage of videos that attacked the Brit on personal and business levels. Rivera went so far as to imitate the infamous South Park Kyle's Mom is the Biggest Bitch into his own rendition of Bisping is a Dirty Dick and accused the kcikboxer of not finishing fights and having light hands, not capable of warranting a KO from anyone.

Bising took the insults very close to heart as he has a young son who is at the age of perusing the internet and sharing viral videos with his friends. Bisping claimed this was the tipping point when his child came home from school being allegedly made fun of because of his father and Rivera's comment of how Koala's are in decline because of a mass STD outbreak. Irony in there is that 'The Count's' wife is from that lovely island.

Bisping had his revenge as he won via TKO in the second round. The first round saw some action in which Michael successfully took Rivera down several times establishing dominance in his ability to take the fight down if need be. In the midst of takedowns Rivera continually loaded up his right hand, throwing the big bomber, landing several good shots. Unfortunately Jorge failed to remember the jab and would be his downfall, constant attention to his right hand made his game easily read from across the world.

This most notable moment of the fight came when Bisping landed a knee to the FULLY DOWNED Rivera. While 'The Conquistador' was down on both knees, Bising landed a clear illegal knee that put Jorge in a daze. With a look of confusion and doctors on the verge of stopping the bout, Rivera manned-up and pressed on. Bisping was deducted one point for the knee, but after a clear dominant round for the Wolfslair kickboxer he walked away with a clear 9-9 round.

The second round was all Bisping as he landed heavy shot after heavy shot in the stand-up deartment. Continuous 'angry hands' from Bisping backpedaled Jorge in the cage turning to his side exposing the left side of his body. From there Bisping took full advantage of the left temple that remained unguarded as continuous right elbows and right hands dropped 'The Conquistador" before a flurry on the ground had the referee step in a pull Bisping off before any more damage could be done.

Bisping then in celebration went over to the corner of Rivera, square up his stance and spit right through the cage in the direction of Michael Phinney (Jorge's cornerman). Phinney jumped to his feet but only before being quickly restrained.

'The Count' continued his verbal assault as he walked back across the cage he just came from and got into the face of a seemingly dazed and wobbled Rivera and said, "Apologize," pitting a finger on the tattoo of Rivera's girlfriend who passed away last year and followed with, "You make fun of my family, fucker. Apologize." With Rivera unable to properly communicate due to his possible multiple concussions, his body language said enough.


Michael Bisping has been avidly promoting his exuberance to be in the UFC, and the professionalism that comes along with the job. Before the fight he bit his tongue well and kept quiet in press conferences, but afterwords it was a whole different story. It is understandable to get caught up in the moment and to be so hyped up after a fight that courtesy goes out the window, but spitting and then getting the face of Rivera for over a minute! Michael Bisping is one of the biggest hypocrites the UFC has ever seen. He talks how is above the spitting and trash talking, yet he does it. The worst part is, in post-fight interviews all he claims over and over is how he 'did not mean to do it' and 'you just get so worked up, so I apologize, I really do.' That is not professional, that is immature. Plain and simple.
