                    <blockquote>

To say that Jorge Rivera has slightly gotten under the skin of Michael Bisping prior to their fight at UFC 127 might be like saying Charlie Sheen has had just a couple of issues recently. Rivera got Bisping so riled up he finally lashed out at the UFC 127 pre-fight press conference, and then got in Rivera’s face during their photo op staredown, cursing and throwing threats his way as well.

“I’m not coming into the cage to hug you to death. I’m coming in there to fight you. So I’m going to lay it on the line, you want to take the fight, take the fight. If not, don’t, and he did,” Rivera told MMAWeekly Radio.

“The truth is there’s nothing he’s going to do to me that’s going to shake me or rattle me. Nothing. He’s not going to say anything that’s going to shake me, and I know what I’m going to do, I’m going to fight him. Come the 27th, that’s how I’m going to do it, I’m going to fight him. If he wants to knock me out because I’m talking or whatever, so be it, that’s the business that I’m in.”

“This is how I view the sport. The sport is a game where you show your heart and you lay it on the line and the fans are going to love you for doing that. That’s why the fans love Anderson Silva, that’s why they love GSP, that’s why they love B.J. Penn, and Matt Hughes, and all these other great champions. All these guys, they lay it on the line. And you’ve got this guy running around saying he wants to fight higher competition and he wants to fight a champion. Nobody wants to see a guy running around for five rounds, and not actively engaging in a fight and trying to finish a fight.

“The object of the game is to finish the fight. I think that’s a point that he misses. When you run your mouth for so long that you don’t have anything to back it up… it comes across as arrogance and pompous and you don’t do anything.”

“... he doesn’t commit to the punches. He’s just looking to touch them and run away, touch them and run away. I’m not looking to do that. I’m looking to punch him and keep punching him till he goes down.”

"Everything he’s doing is a contradiction. We know it’s worked, the campaign on him has worked, now I need to go out there and execute the game plan and put him away.”

FWIW, the head games do appear to have elicited the desired effects.

This bloke is getting fucking destroyed.

This is an irrefutable fact.

 Be Nice to see Bisping finish this one.

Rivera is correct.


Nothing worse then a fighter who shows no interest in finishing fights.

When Bisping was fighting the level of competition Rivera is he was getting plenty of finishes.





No doubt Pillow Fists can ride his bike for 15 minutes for the "British Bingo," but if he doesn't Rivera's gonna put him to sleep. If that happens the UK Troll Team may just off themselves, is my guess.

Pernicious - FWIW, the head games do appear to have elicited the desired effects.
This.

 

oy mate, ye better take down this gif or ye gonna git sussed by the anglican top team - are ye takin' the piss? - is he 'avin' a laugh? is he 'avin' a laugh?

 Every time a UK fighter loses the troll squad just goes on about how their oppoennt cheated or the ref helped ... they spin every loss into a win.  Look at the bisping/silva fight and what they have to say about that.  Unfortunately they can never just admit their fighter got beat by a better guy.

Newbie alert*

I can't stand the UKtitteam, but shit Pisping looked furious. If he was real smart, he'd be faking all the "I'm gonna knock your lights out" shit and just shoot in for the win. I don't think the Jorge'd be expecting a floor match after the staredown fiasco. But to be honest, I couldn't rightly give Count Chocula that much credit for actually strategizing.

Bisping 29-28 all judges

Bisping by KO but i mite b wrong Phone Post

FORDYBEAR - This bloke is getting fucking destroyed.

No, that is not an irrefutable fact. It's amazing how someone from the home of the english language doesn't understand english.

An irrefutable fact is something that has already happened, and can be proven to have happened.

Your statement is wishful thinking/UKTrollTeam wet dream.

If it somehow actually happens, then it will be a fact. Fuck you clowns are annoying!

What's your problem? ^ you were talking shit in another Bisping thread (can't remember which) think you need a cuddle or a slap you grouchy little fuck Phone Post

Quoted for truth.

 

^^ I don't imagine any UKTT are going going to respond to this.
