During the UFC’s recent return to Paris, France this past weekend, commentator Michael Bisping looked to take in his surroundings during the work trip.
However, as he revealed on social media, his leisure time was disrupted by a thief who attempted to run away with his wife’s bag.
Little did the thief know that he was now going to have to outrun one of the UFC’s all-time great cardio machines.
After tracking him down, the former UFC champion showed restraint, much to the benefit of the man that he had pursued.
He told the story in a video posted on X, claiming that he left him with a swift kick “up the a**” before returning back with the bag.
“Earlier today I had to stop a crime. Sitting there having breakfast with Rebecca in the streets of Montmartre, Paris and some little s*** snatches Rebecca’s bag, runs away. So I chase after him, get a hold of him, he had the bag already hidden in like a towel. Got the bag off him, he didn’t speak a word of English obviously. Didn’t do anything to him, got the bag back, he was s******* his pants, poor guy.”
MMA Fans React To Michael Bisping Running After And Catching The Thief
This situation could have ended very differently if Bisping wasn’t the type of person who was able to be calm in this moment.
The thief likely has no idea what could have happened to him after he stole something from the wrong family, and could have been faced with “left hook Larry” as a result.
MMA fans reacted on social media to Bisping’s retelling of events:
“Bet the little thieving c*** was like this when Bisping stepped to him”
“Out of 8 billion people he picked the a former ufc champion to steal from lmao. He wins the Darwin Award.”
“Imagine being gripped up by a one-eyed, cauliflower eared mob boss looking UFC champion. He must’ve thought it would be his end.”
“Glad you’re both ok and that you got her bag back. Those trail runs and good cardio came in handy.”
“‘I didn’t…. *smirk* I didn’t do anything'”
