Maybe Michael Bisping should have spent a little more time convalescing.
Kelvin Gastelum knocked out the former Ultimate Fighting Championship middleweight titleholder in the first round of their UFC Fight Night 22 headliner on Saturday at the Mercedes-Benz Arena in Shanghai. Three weeks to the day after being deposed as 185-pound champion, Bisping (30-9, 20-9 UFC) bit the dust 2:30 into Round 1. His decision to replace a suspended Anderson Silva on short notice did not go according to plan.
Gastelum (14-3, 9-3 UFC) waited for his opportunity and did not miss.
