Several months ago, on a March episode of BJ Penn Radio<\/a>, Jorge Masvidal <\/a>shared a story of yet another heated run-in with former UFC middleweight champ Michael Bisping (read that\u00a0here<\/a>). During this incident, which occurred in Shanghai, China, Masvidal alleges that Bisping went off on him, blasting him with a profanity-laced tirade.<\/p>\n

This week, on the latest episode of The MMA Hour, Masvidal once again recounted this story. Not long thereafter, Bisping shared his side of the encounter on his podcast Believe You Me<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Here’s what Bisping had to say about the run-in in Shanghai. Unsurprisingly, his version of the story differs quite a bit.<\/p>\n

\u201cHere\u2019s what happened in Shanghai,” Bisping said (transcribed by Jed Meshew for MMA Fighting<\/a>). “He\u2019s always there, he\u2019s always talking s**t. He\u2019s a little a**hole, whatever. As I\u2019m walking through the lobby, I see him and just give him the middle finger. I walk past and I go \u201cf**k you\u201d just as I\u2019m walking by. I just lost a fight, I wasn\u2019t in the best mood and that\u2019s all it was. I wasn\u2019t trying to get at anybody. I don\u2019t go around trying to attack people in hotel lobbies.”<\/p>\n

\u201cYou know where Jorge Masvidal resonates with me?” Bisping continued, explaining how insignificant the encounter was to him. “The other day I was biting my fingernails – you ever bite your fingernails and when you rip it off, you take a bit of skin with you? It\u2019s annoying and it stings but it\u2019s not really there, it\u2019s only now and again. He\u2019s about that level. That\u2019s how much you resonate on my radar Jorge Masvidal. . . That\u2019s what you\u2019re like: you are an annoyance, you\u2019re always there, but in a couple of days you\u2019ll be gone.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m 39 years old with three kids, you think I\u2019m interested in trying to fight with somebody that honestly I don\u2019t even know. Do I care for him? No, I don\u2019t. Do I respect him? Obviously not. He handles himself like a piece of s**t but I\u2019m not interested in trying to fight Jorge Masvidal, whether it\u2019s in the UFC, in a parking lot, whatever it is. Just move on with your life, focus on your UFC career – you\u2019re dwindling UFC career. He\u2019s lost fights at lightweight for crying out loud. I used to fight at light heavyweight, I\u2019m a middleweight, I certainly don\u2019t go looking for fights against lightweights. So get a grip, Jorge Masvidal.\u201d<\/p>\n

What do you make of the beef between Michael Bisping and Jorge Masvidal?<\/p>\n
