Morning Report: Michael Bisping on UFC 209: ‘If they’re the best welterweights in the world, then I should f**k up GSP’

On Saturday, UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley narrowly defended his title, edging out a majority decision over Stephen Thompson in a fight that has widely been lambasted as exceedingly bad. And while both participants in the fight have defended their cautious approaches, others have not been so genial.

UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping spoke with TMZ Sports after the fight where he gave his opinion on the bout. Bisping is set to defend his belt against former long-time UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre later this year and he said that if the title fight at UFC 209 was between the best the 170 pound division has to offer, he likes his chances to retain his own belt.
