Michael Bisping: 'Jorge Rivera's cornermen were still screaming abuse at me after the

Quote:

"It just built up for so long. While they were making all these videos and bad-mouthing me, I was just focused on training and beating this guy. You know, I take my job very very seriously and I try to be a good ambassador for the sport and a good role model for my children. So I'm a little bit disappointed in myself for the antics post-fight a little bit. But, you know, the guy, his cornermen was still screaming abuse at me, calling me a motherf*cker, an a**hole, a piece of sh*t, after the fight and at my cornermen, he was still screaming obscenities there and then. And Jorge's saying it's just promotion, I'm like 'no, it wasn't promotion. Don't mock me on the Internet, you know. My son seen these, his friends at school, things like that, mocking me like that, you know.' That's not business to me, that's personal. ... No (I didn't deliberately spit at Jorge Rivera's corner), I was spitting on the floor to him to let him know what I thought of him. I apologize for that, I'd never want to act like that, and I apologize for losing my cool."

I honestly have no problems with what Bisping did. ..
Jorge should have kept his mouth shut.
Without his 'boy friends', Jorge's not so tough. lol

Word. I saw this on Ariel Helwani's channel on youtube earlier tonight.
Rivera got what was coming to him. If you talk shit, then prepare to get shit on.
I'm glad he apologized for what he did bc it wasn't sportsmanlike, but in the heat of the moment after some guy just talked shit about you for weeks on end I probably would've done something similar or more than likely worse.

Saying shit like u want to be a good ambassador for the sport then he goes and "Spits" on his corner men?
Not even Douche Bag Brock did that... And Mir talked some personal shit for sure.
Watch how the guy acts around people and u can tell he is a douche

If Bisping had made those videos, mocking Riviera, out of the blue?... and the Rivera kneed Bisping illegally before spitting on the matt in front of the cornerman?
I'm sure there would be plenty saying Bisping had it coming... and it would be true.
Man, the MMA community go mental every time a Bisping fight comes around. If he disappeared tomorrow, we would all miss him and his ridiculous bullshit.
The UFC theatre is fooking great. Long may it continue.
peace

If Rivera SPIT on his Corner men, u REALLY think i would of said he had it coming....
I would of said him Yelling at his corner men, and the shit talk directly after was totally a "You had it coming" moment.
Spitting is like against the law to do to someone here... Although a minor offense.
No one deserves to be spat on from shit talking to promote a fight period

If he spat on his corner man, I would agree. When I first saw it, I was disgusted. But, after looking at the clips, it does, to me anyway, look like Bisping was trying to spit on the mat in front of the corner man.
Hes sill an idiot. But, so is Rivera. The videos were sly and insulting... and made me laugh.

Are you suggesting its the same thing? I've had the ground in front of me spat on several times in my life. I've never been spat on. The latter would have me stomp on your head. Thats all I'm saying. There is a difference.
Other than that... yes, Bisping is all the stuff you say he is.

Ur right the videos were sly and insulting. I also enjoyed them, but Rivera had to know there was going to be backlash.
You don't disrespect a man in public and expect him to be cool with it do you?
In our society does this warrant someone spitting on you? We think it's unjust, immoral and unsportsmanlike, but we should consider that many men have been killed or dismembered for much less insulting displays of public disrespect.
