‘I was almost in tears’ - Bisping ‘very emotional’ seeing Jedrzejczyk retire at UFC 275

On Saturday night at UFC 275, Joanna Jedrzejczyk suffered a brutal faceplant KO loss to Zhang Weili in their rematch. After the bout, the former long-time strawweight champion took her gloves off, left them on the canvas, and announced her retirement from professional competition.

The 35-year-old Polish fighter received nothing but well-wishes for what she had accomplished. But for someone who saw it up close like Hall-of-Famer Michael Bisping, it was quite an emotional turn of events.

Bisping, who was on commentary duties that night, gave his post-UFC 274 reactions in a recent YouTube video he uploaded.
