Probably the greatest championship win in UFC history. For Bisping to accomplish it with the use of one eye for so long is nothing short of amazing. What an absolute warrior.

it was tarnished by the deleted footage from this video where he was the most unsportsmanlike prick I've ever seen, talking shit to a KO'd Rockhold. Brought that old Bisping back, the one everyone hated for being a dickhead his entire career. I didn't enjoy this moment particularly or think it was that great of an accomplishment. A journeyman got a semi-lucky KO on a new champion who was cocky and had bad defense. The follow up to it ruined the moment then his "title reign" after this was amongst the worst of any "champion". So no, this was pretty lame and contained one of the most unsportsmanlike events in MMA history, probably the most unsportsmanlike moment in a title fight ever. No serious MMA fan really wanted the journeyman, low-mid tier fighter in Bisping to be champ and clog up the division with shitty fights.

@@ukqwerty999 so cringe dude, just admit that Bisping lucked into a title shot and caught a cocky Rockhold who wasn't defending himself then tarnished his win with the most unsportsmanlike conduct in title fight history.

It might even make you happier and to stop projecting things like jealousy on others simply because they recognize the reality of a situation from an entirely neutral fan standpoint.

At 04:32 you can see Bisping going for a hug with his son and completely missing his body. That's how messed up his spacial and depth perception was. A man with such a condition winning the belt at UFC is BEYOND amazing, it's almost supernatural.

It was an absolute insane card ...and amazing to be there. My sister lived in LA at the time and i talked her into coming with me. Every fight on the TV prelim was a KO. a little known guy named Sean Strickland fought on the EARLY Prelims!! we had no idea who we was then. Muhammad Ali had just died so it was tributes .....and they announced Brock was coming back for UFC 200 obviously we didnt know Dana was in the belly of the arena kicking Helwani out bc he tweeted abt Brock coming back but obvi we didnt know that at time but when it popped on the video board the place went NUTZ. and just the card itself... Prelims: Andrade abs startched Penne then Dariush KO'd Vick then Ortega KO'd Guida then PPV starts Porier flattened Bobby Green (Loudest crowd pop of night when Hendo landed the spinning backfist to put Lomard to sleep) then the all time moment when Max pointed at ground and he and Lamas swing crazy til the final bell went off😅😂 then Dom/Urijah to end their trilogy Feud then this fight to end the night Just wow

HIs family in the octagon afterwards is my favorite moment in mma ever. The whole family has been in the spotlight during Michaels Career. Absolutley legendary performance, and man And his family knows it. welldone

I remember having a tear of happiness for Bisbing when he won the belt. Non mma fans just can't understand a whole lifes hard work for this moment. Well done Sir. Hall of fame for this fight

Michael Bisping in my opinion had perhaps the greatest comeback of all time in all of MMA. He’s like our version of Cinderella man. Guy fought juice heads his whole career and even lost a fucking eye for it. He even lost to Dan Henderson in what’s considered one of the most brutal knock outs of all time. Dude lies to the commission to keep fighting with on eye, and then out of nowhere gets a last minute title shot against a guy who knocked him out and choked him out in the same fight when they first fought. He gains a first round upset KO and becomes champion. Then to top it all off he defends his belt against the same guy who brutally and iconically knocked him out cold and wins a decision, preventing Dan Henderson from winning a UFC belt before he retires. Dude also has a dime piece of a wife and a beautiful family, and gets paid to commentate. You can’t make this shit up.

"That's how you achieve things, that's how you put yourself out there"

No matter how many times they upload this or I see it, I never fail to get pumped up for the Count. The pure joy on his face, the way one of the first things he does is try to get his friends and family into the octagon with him, how he tries to celebrate with them cause he genuinely thinks it's as much their victory as his. What a champ.

Michael said in his early days as a fighter Rebecca believed in him when no one else did. Winning the title is such a great moment for the Bispings and mma history.

Bisping has been involved on both ends of such satisfying knockouts.

I remember hating Michael Bisping when he was on the ultimate fighter. Over the years however I gained tremendous respect for him. Now he stands as one of my all-time favorites. Congrats on an epic career man.

Bisping stepped up and captured gold. Can't count how many times they offered Jacare the title shot on short notice (around this era) and he always turned it down because he wanted a full camp. Things don't always happen exactly the way you want them too. Sometimes you just have to show up!

... with one eye! 👁️ That's TOUGH! Well done, Bisping!

Bisping deserved this, the man is a legit legend. was fantastic to experience this live.

Any time, anywhere and only with one eye! Legend.

Been watching UFC since 1995 when i rented my first UFC event on VHS, I have UFC fight pass and order 4-5 PPV a year. This is my favorite fight in UFC history because of the result.

Damn the old belts looked so much better, I miss them.

Golden moment, Won't ever forget it.

Don’t ever get bored of seeing this!

Michael is killer on mike he could easily be a huge aspect in WWE😂

Watching this years after it happened, after everything we now know the Count to be, and it’s actually much sweeter. To quote the great Dominick Cruz, “One Eye”.

Im still enjoying this moment in 2022 from hongkong and i watched live when it happened, great win for bisping .

NEVER GIVE UP

Truly cinematic story. Nobody believed he can do it, even his family. But he did. Sometimes I rewatch this victory with music from Rocky))

DC over there in Luke's corner lookin like, "Man I told you he was gonna f*ck you up". 😂😂

That's one of the best moments in ufc history in my opinion...

One of the few MMA moments that make me want to cry

He did this with one eye!

Truly Epic! Also, the chain of events leading up to this moment is unreal...Weidman Ko'ing the Invincible Anderson, Rockhold Smashing the life out of Weidman, then This!

Love the count alot of respect he is bad ass worked his way up from the show to champ with 1 eye shout out to the champ !!!

How happy Jason Parillo was for his long time fighter makes this moment that much more better

This never gets old

I was going to say Robbie Lawler’s title win, but the fact Bisping did it with one eye, undisputed! I always wanted to see Chris Lytle win the title too, loved that guy

This one really brings a tear too my eye

This was such a great card, glad I watched it live!

No doubt! This is my favourite ever championship win for any fighter in the UFC even made uncle Dana smile and giggle.

"I'll touch you in a sec" It will never get old!

this ended rockholds carreer

My heart warms whenever I watch Bisping k/o RockDouche

Love this dude. Glad that he won the Chip!

He might not be the GOAT.. but he is the COUNT!!! Cheers to the UK!!!!

One of my favorite moments.

Bisping is the only guy to win a title with 1 working eye. Oliviera and Texeira getting their titles last year were also amazing moments👊🏼

Bisping is the man. One of the best moments in the UFC, if not, the best!

Bisping did it with one eye. That is quite unbelievable

my hero. cheets from Poland
