"Whatever I do, I get shit off everybody. Conor McGregor can do no wrong, he is Jesus reincarnated. He can walk on water, he can do whatever the fuck he wants. He can leave the sport of UFC and go chase a boxing match and that's still the best thing ever, holding up two divisions whilst he's at it."https://twitter.com/SportsJOEdotie/status/858680106751053824 Technically, McGregor is only holding up one division in the UFC right now - lightweight. However, he did pursue that welterweight do-over against Nate Diaz instead of defending his featherweight strap, thus holding that division hostage for that period. 'The Notorious' has never defended a belt and he's shown no signs of breaking that cycle in the future. Bisping, on the other hand, has defended his belt, but that was against a retiring Dan Henderson who wasn't even in the top 10 at the time. Bisping has a point, but at the same time, calling out his critics may not be the wisest of moves.

Whichever one of them, because they're all tough guys, let's be honest, whichever one I pick, the other six are all going to bitch and whine and complain." "So you can't win. I'm fighting Georges St-Pierre, fucking deal with it."Whether you agree or disagree, you've got to appreciate the honesty.
