Michael Bisping’s 5 most popular quotes
- Some people are born for a certain thing. And for me, unfortunately, I wish it was something a bit more artistic or whatever, but I was a born fighter. That’s what kept me coming back. It makes me feel alive. And, I just know, there is nothing I do better in this world than fight.
- I’m a fighter through and through, and I’ve got more heart and more determination than anybody.
- If a football player has a bad game, he’s allowed to do that because he plays once or twice a week. With fighting, it’s once every few months.
- I swear to God, I don’t even know who Demi Lovato is. My son has a crush on her. Apparently, he was sat next to her when I knocked Luke Rockhold out, so Demi Lovato knows who I am, that’s for sure.
- I was a big fan of martial arts movies—Bruce Lee in particular, as cringeworthy as it is. Jean-Claude van Damme was a big inspiration as well; it’s a little embarrassing.
