Bisping: It was ‘very satisfying’ to see ‘cheat’ Vitor Belfort KO’d by Lyoto Machida

It’s safe to say that Michael Bisping and Vitor Belfort will never see eye to eye, and both men are unlikely to settle whatever beef they may have inside the Octagon.

Bisping, the former UFC middleweight champion, was knocked out by Belfort when ‘The Phenom’ was openly using testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) in 2013. Belfort caught Bisping with a head kick in the second round which caused permanent damage to his eye, and the Brit is still notably scarred from the incident to this day.

That’s why when Lyoto Machida knocked out Belfort with a picture-perfect front kick last weekend at UFC 224, ‘The Count’ found great satisfaction in watching the Brazilian suffer yet another KO loss.
