The Count is philosophical but fired up for a rematch.
“I’ve got no excuses; it was a poor performance on the night. I can’t explain why, I can’t pretend I had a bad camp, that I struggled at the weight or any of those types of excuses because the honest truth is I had my best camp ever. I just couldn’t get into any rhythm on the night at all. I was doing loads wrong, couldn’t stick to the gameplan. I was cycling into his right hand, which we worked hard on not doing, but for some reason I was doing it.”
“Fair play to him, he caught me and knocked me out. Everyone saw it. It is a setback, I am pissed off, I was close to a title shot but I will be back. I want to fight in my hometown of Manchester in November and I want a top opponent, I don’t want to go back down a level. I know I can compete with the best and want to prove that right away.”

Says he is still confident he could beat Hendo etc.
did he see the fight?
ASBELTOMATO - did he see the fight?
LOL!!!
-"DJ CRUSH"
GREAT article and just the sort of reponse I wanted and expected from Bisping.
it seems the punch did more damage then we thought.He really did get knocked silly
fuck yeah bisping you animal, get back in there and get stuck in
At least he's not making excuses.
lol sigh.
he wants a top opponent. i hope to god he gets a top 185er.......oh, lets say, nate marquadt
Feed him Ross Pointon for the third time.
Or Chainsaw McCarthy
Better yet, rematch with Hamill.
i will always love the "couldn't get into a rhythm" talk... could it possibly be because who you were fighting did not let you.. and they are better than you?
hrm i wonder who he will fight...
the pity is, with comments like that and other moments, you get the sense he might actually be a decent guy. but then he turns on the schtick to sell tickets.
oh well, i guess the ones close to him know, and thats all he probably gives a shit about anyhow.
I have a few excuses for you little buddy. Feel free to use one of these.
"the light was in my eye"
"I slipped"
"hendo was greasing"
"I ate too much chowder"
"holly Madison flashed her meat curtains at me"
or we could list some reasons you lost.
You're not really that good.
Hendo would ko you 10 out of 10 times.
Dana should have never let you go in there.
You're not really that good.
Holly Madison flashed her meat curtains at you.
lol @ bisping poor guy
At least Bisping hasnt asked his mum to come and make excuses.
He actually did ask her. She said "hell no, you got KTFO!"
"i would like to fight at home/outside the U.S.A where the judges can be bought off and I can 'earn' a win against a great fighter"
"If anything, this will make me more aggressive in my next fight"
Hell no you won't....You'll be backin up alot
more and we already got enough of that in the UFC
he'll be back. Sometimes it takes a vicious KO loss to make you listen to your trainers next time
