Michael Bisping Wants To Leave Tim Kennedy In Pile Of Blood, Begging The Referee
Michael Bisping and Tim Kennedy will square off tonight at The Ultimate Fighter Nations Finals, and will look to settle the score in their long-standing beef. The war of words is always interesting when ‘The Count’ is involved, but all credit to Ranger Tim for keeping up his end of the trash talk.
With Bisping though, there is only going to be one winner in the pre-fight shenanigans, and he has once again proved that he is the best at talking smack while being interview by Fox Sports. Check out what he had to say about his opponent in Quebec City, Canada:
“I’m excited to get in there and just f–k this idiot up, honestly, he thinks that he’s played mind games and he things that he really got the upper hand. I’m a pretty intense individual and all he’s done is made me more and more intense. I’m more in the zone if you will. He’s going to pay the price on Wednesday night.”
Bisping’s rivalries with Jorge Riveira, Dan Henderson, Wanderlei Silva and Vitor Belfort were pretty epic, but he kicks it up a notch while slating Kennedy. The brash Brit threw a barrage of verbal tirades at his American foe at the weigh-in last night, but says he felt justified in doing so:
“And I don’t give a s–t about people writing about me or people watching and going ‘he acted wrong there’. No, when I finally get face to face with this a–hole, I’m letting him know that f–king 24 hours from now, I’m kicking the living s–t out of you and he’s going to be scared. Deep down inside himself he f–king knows ‘oh my god f–k I messed up here, cause I’m going to get my ass kicked.”
“This will be a stoppage for sure, you ain’t going to see a decision. I haven’t come up here to Quebec for a mixed martial arts contest. I’ve come up here to beat Tim Kennedy up in the most violent way as I can possibly do. I want to hurt him, I want to leave him on the floor in a pile of piss and blood and he begs the referee to rip me off him and then I never want to hear Tim Kennedy’s name mentioned in the same sentence as me ever again.”
Genuine animosity or ticket selling hype? Either way, I think Bisping has enough motivation to put on a great fight. He shouldn’t be overlooking Kennedy though, and also would be foolish to assume that his trash talk will change the way the former US forces sniper approaches this fight.
For Bisping, I think the best Kennedy that could show up is an angry one. ‘The Count’ needs to be able to implement his game plan and keep the pace very high, if Kennedy is calm and collected enough to land a bomb on Bisping, it could be a short night for the Brit.
