UFC Middleweight Champion Michael Bisping had a strong response to top middleweight contender Yoel Romero.
On Wednesday, Romero created a GoFundMe page to help pay for Bisping’s medical bills after the two fight for the title.

Bisping did not take long to respond to Romero. The middleweight champion went on to call Romero his “little b**ch.”
@YoelRomeroMMA yap yap yap little doggie. We will fight when I decide, you have no say in this ?. Until then you are my little bitch.

UFC President Dana White recently revealed Romero would be next to fight for Bisping’s title. No date for the fight has been set due to Bisping recently receiving knee surgery. The champion is expected to return sometime in the spring.
Romero earned his shot at the UFC title after being unbeaten as a middleweight and unbeaten in the UFC. Romero is on an eight-fight win streak. Six of his eight wins have come by TKO or knockout.
Romero is coming off a vicious knockout win over former UFC Middleweight Champion Chris Weidman. His win streak also includes wins over Derek Brunson, Brad Tavares, Tim Kennedy, Lyoto Machida, and Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza.
Bisping is on a five-fight win streak. He defeated CB Dollaway, Thales Leites, and former UFC Middleweight Champion Anderson Silva to earn a shot at the UFC title. In June, at UFC 199, Bisping knocked out then-champion Luke Rockhold to win the title. In his last fight, he defended the title by winning a decision against Dan Henderson in October at UFC 204.
