I've dislike Bisping since the show. He just seemed like a whiner that thought he was better than everyone else. His post fight action in the Hamil fight just increased my dislike.

I'm not starting a whole thing here, but you have to ask yourself how does your status as living in the UK affect your opinion on Michael Bisping?
It's not at all.

Why aren't people hating on all the other fighters that do this all the time? Is Frank Shamrock an asshole? No, because Baroni isn't deaf so it's okay to kick his unconcious body off you. Is BJ an asshole for holding the choke on Jens? No, because Jen's isn't deaf so its okay to hold a choke too long. Is Clementi an asshole for all the shit he talked after Guillard? No, because Guillard isn't deaf so it's okay to talk shit after. Is Bisping an asshole because he was happy and made one or two off the cuff remarks after beating Hammill? Apparently so, because Hammill is deaf.
People need to get over it, I'm sure he has.
Yup.

He was better than everyone else, that's why he won it...

It has nothing to do with Hamill being deaf, if you had payed attention, it has everything to do with the fact that Bisping did NOT win the fight. Guys like BJ, Frank Shamrock, Clementi, won their fights fair and square, they finished the fight so while I don't like what they did, I'm not as annoyed. Although I don't like Shamrock and BJ anyway. What also makes it worse was that Hamill was annoyed, but he didn't throw a tantrum, he showed class in more or less accepting the result of the fight and walking away.

Sorry, but I call bs on that. Look at the people defending Bisping:

Coincidence? I think not.
You can think what you want but you're wrong, ya flamin' galah.
There are plenty of uk fighters I can't stand. Plus I'm not really a Bisping fan, I just think he's pretty funny sometimes and he gets to much criticism for something he said sorry about.
Is Clementi an asshole for all the shit he talked after Guillard?
Yes. (And I don't want to hear about "Guillard started it!" Clementi should have let the fight speak for itself.)

Honestly... Yes. But he's also an asshole for blowing up at the post fight presser, after he had time to think about the fight, when a reporter dared to question the validity of the decision.
The only thing I was ever pissed at Bisping about concerning deaf people was when he talked crap about Hamil when Hamil had his back turned but was in the same room. That, my friends, is a colossal douche bag move.

Reason: typo
lol gtf over it you net nerds, and I bet most, over 85% of the ppl that dislike bisping are NOT uk based so does that say something? nationalists..... basically some ppl need to nitpick on the smallest things because they cant stand that there might a successful fighter and have something personal because they're british, lame.
Bisping has always been respectful, you haven't seen him in cage rage days, otherwise you would know, he has always respected the sport, the reason he had dislike for Hamill was because Tito behaved as if Hamill was the main man and didn't give the same notice to the other fighters, Bisping believed this to be unfair and having been cage rage champion and undefeated felt he deserved some respect. Hamill also was rubbing it in the other fighters how much of a better wrestler he was, by holding them back with his hands behind his back, people with pride would take that as an insult, Bisping wasn't the only one who took it personally. Basically they had a bit of dislike for each other, because they were both good and competitive, I think adrenalin just took over and although Bisping over did it, his comments weren't that bad, he later apologised and if you do a bit of research you can find that and has even said after the Rashad fight something like 'maybe it was just karma, I wont he last one through split decision and lost this one the same way, some people felt I lost that and won this, these things happen in this sport' not quite the quote but close.
There are a lot of other fighers who have done much much worse than say to someone "get back to wrestling" and let their emotions out because it was a tough fight, lmao you fags, get over it and move on with your life, if you dislike a person because of that then you need to change the way you perceive people because if you look at Bisping throughout his interviews etc. you will see he isn't a douche like some other fighters who always make excuses or smack talk.
Remember the Rashad fight, at the weighings, Bisping put his hand out and Rashad refused, now thats being a dick, there was no bad blood or anything and it was a sign of disrespect, in a fight Rashad won by split.
For me both fights were a draw but with each round a must 10-9 its very tough to choose close fights that could go either way, depending on your outlook.
I don't know why people brought this up again, they need to let go of this minor thing as they will have a lot more to deal with in life than hold a grudge cos someone on t.v thought he won a fight and told someone to go back to wrestling lool, for which he later apologised.

Maybe it's just a coincidence that none of us are idiots either. Don't blame Bisping for the judges decision. They are boxing judges and in a boxing match, Bisping won. He landed more shots in the second and third and Hammill couldn't hold him down. Sure, he got destroyed in the first but there's an argument for him winning the fight.
