I’m convinced that nobody nods and talks more at a weigh-in than Michael Bisping. It’s like his entire goal post weight-cut is to have an intense conversation with his opponents while nodding furiously. Just what is he saying, and why is he nodding? Is he agreeing with whatever Cung Le is saying? Considering these two were buddy-buddy for months leading up to this moment, you’d think the dialogue may go something like this:
Bisping: “Right, I’m gonna stand here and nod my head up and down. Are you gonna nod your head?”
Cung: “A little, yes.”
Bisping: “Thanks, mate. I have to admit I’m a little bummed out I’ll be missing week 2 of the BPL, but sometimes you have to make a living.”
Cung: “You have to do what you have to do, one time I was fighting in Strikeforece and…”
Bisping: “Nevermind that. Bloody hell let’s just nod up and down for a little while. Did you know I was a DJ?”
Cung: “Really? That makes me smile.”
Bisping: “Don’t patronize me, just affirm.”
Cung: “Okay. Cya tomorrow TTYL”
