Former UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping has been going at it over social media as of late. Now the fighter’s most recent early morning rant has come to light.
Bisping covered a variety of topics, kicking things off a little after 5:00 AM. “The Count” started by claiming that fellow former middleweight title holder Luke Rockhold was being targeted for an interim light heavyweight title fight.
Quickly, Bisping changed gears and defended himself for making a scene inside the octagon after Yoel Romero suffered a tough loss to Robert Whittaker in their interim title fight. Of course, Bisping quickly switched back to dropping hints that Rockhold was being targeted to specifically fight Alexander Gustafsson for the interim light heavyweight belt.
Lastly, Bisping decided to call out fellow MMA veteran Nick Diaz. Check it all out below:
Well affliction paid me a lot to wear that jacket. It’s called sponsorship, you may wanna try and get some. Also, if you’re gonna spend hours trawling the web looking for a bad pic, there’s way worse ones than that. #fail https://t.co/ADDBMrYpXN

Honestly………… I don’t know. But, I hear the last person I knocked out may be fighting for an interim belt. If he wins I’m in. I’m 225 right now and pretty ripped. Never making 185 again. https://t.co/OWz2gxfSUZ

For the record. I accepted a fight against the winner of Yoel and Whitacker. That’s why I went in the cage and acted like a prick. @robwhittakermma didn’t want it. #truestory https://t.co/dxo6ABTTE5
