“Stop the Count”- Michael Bisping Gives a Hilarious Response to Donald Trump

Former middleweight champion Michael Bisping took to Twitter and hilariously chimed in on the ongoing United States Presidential election fever. ‘The Count’ reacted to a Tweet sent out by sitting President Donald Trump who’s looking to be re-elected. The Tweet has gained plenty of traction online and has been pulling in retweets and responses throughout the world.

Bisping couldn’t help but insert himself into the narrative based on the wording of Donald Trump’s tweet. Chiefly, it comes in as a play of words of Bisping’s fighter nickname that he popularized through years of fighting on the biggest stage.

Several notable names in the UFC are tied to President Trump, and this has in some way elevated the sport. These include UFC boss Dana White and superstar fighters like Jorge Masvidal and Colby Covington.

There’s no doubt that election fever has gripped everyone, including those who live outside the United States. The decision to elect the leader of the free world understandably draws attention, and Michael Bisping got the perfect opportunity to get some attention to himself and the sport.

Michael Bisping: An Overview

The future Hall of Famer is one of the most dynamic names in the sport throughout its history. ‘The Count’ more or less retired in 2017 after losing his belt to Georges St-Pierre at UFC 217. Bisping tried to correct the loss to ‘GSP’ by taking a short notice fight against Kelvin Gastelum in China less than a month after being choked by ‘Rush’. Michael lost the fight and unceremoniously left the sport after two stoppage losses.

Despite the fact that he went 0ut on his back, Bisping’s legacy in the sport is secure. Moreover, he’s a pioneer in MMA, having burst onto the scene in the early days of ‘The Ultimate Fighter’. The final fights of his career included wins over fellow legends like Anderson Silva and Dan Henderson.

‘The Count’ is now a staple on the UFC’s broadcasting bench and hosts the successful ‘Believe You Me’ podcast. Furthermore, he remains a fan-favorite entity in the sport of MMA and continues to represent England through his post-fighting career ventures. Now, his retweet will draw attention to both him and the UFC.
