Anderson Silva Trolls Michael Bisping For Kicking His Coach
Former UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva wasted no time in busting Michael Bisping’s chops over his recent training blooper…
UFC middleweights Anderson Silva and Michael Bisping will headline the promotion’s trip to London, England next weekend (Saturday February 27, 2016) and there’s been a pretty fun rivalry between the two. As with all of Bisping’s previous fights for the UFC, he’s been very vocal ahead of his bout with the former champion, but he’s been gifted way more ammo than ever before. ”The Spider’ failed a drug test for anabolic steroids after his UFC 183 scrap with Nick Diaz, and later claimed it was ‘tainted viagra’ from Thailand that caused the positive result.
For ‘The Count,’ this was just perfect grounds to start a rivalry, and he’s blasted Silva as a cheater who’s been doing it his whole career. A few trades of banter and a media scrum face-off have proved tame but also fun to watch, and now Silva has fired the next shot to Bisping’s camp.
After last week’s open workout blooper where ‘The Count’ blasted his own coach with a spinning kick to the face, his Brazilian foe sent out the following Instagram post:
Touché, Mr Silva, touché. So Michael Bisping will probably have a comeback to this taunt in no time, but it does raise a more serious question; does Michael Bisping have any chance in this bout? It’s questionable as to whether he has the wrestling chops to stifle Silva’s standing attacks, but surely he doesn’t plan to strike with him?
The British banger could end up in deep waters if he tries to trade with one of the greatest MMA knockout artists to ever live, but what other chance does he have? He can’t risk battling in the clinch with ‘The Spider,’ and it’s not like Bisping to lay and pray.
What do you think?
