Michael Bisping Fires Back At ‘Fake’ Anderson Silva

Although it has been nearly 10 months since reigning UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping and former longtime titleholder Anderson Silva fought, “The Spider” still feels as if he should’ve won the fight. Bisping, however, was given the decision win.

Seemingly not over the decision, Silva took to his official Instagram account today to post a few pictures of his best shots landed against “The Count”:

1 – De onde veio esse soco? 2 – Chute na boca! De onde veio esse chute? 3 – Vou correr desse cara! Será que não vão dar a luta pra mim? 4 – Bateu um sono aqui, vou dar um cochilo e já volto, afinal, estou em casa! Good Save the Queen! Sempre bom lutar em casa… O dia que nocauteei e perdi por pontos. Na terra da rainha, não é diferente do Brasil, time da casa tem peso dobrado! Good Save the Queen… ———— 1 – Where did this punch come from? 2 – Kick in the mouth! Where did it come from? 3 – I will run from this guy! I hope they help me in this fight! 4 – I think I’m going to sleep and come back later, because I’m at home! It is always good to fight at home. God Save the Queen! The day I knocked someone out and ended up losing by points. In the Queen’s land is no different than Brazil, the home team has its privileges! God save the Queen!

What Silva is referring to with his caption is a moment that came near the tail end of the third round when the Brazilian landed a brutal flying knee that dropped “The Count” as the buzzer sounded. “The Spider” celebrated as if he had won, although it was merely the end of the round.

After getting wind of Silva’s post, Bisping fired back, explaining why he felt as if he had won, while also taking the time to blast the ‘fake’ Silva:

This is only in response to @spiderandersonsilva Your still whining on Instagram about the decision. Saying I ran the whole time and you knocked me out lol. First off, I backed you up the entire fight and dropped you twice, also I clearly out struck you the entire fight. You landed a cheap shot in the third which dropped me at the end of the round, not KO’d me lol. Man, your so used to everyone bowing down to you, your head is messed up. You lost! Deal with it. A true martial artist should have honour and respect in defeat as well as victory. Also they don’t take steroids, you sir are a fake!!!!!

Bisping most recently defended his title against Dan Henderson at UFC 204, while Silva is coming off of a loss to light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier at UFC 200.
