QUEBEC — English middleweight Michael Bisping got in opponent Tim Kennedy’s face Monday as the two squared off for a pre-fight photo opportunity.
Bisping moved in nose to nose and started to read the former Green Beret the riot act, dropping F-bombs and finger-pointing until a UFC official separated the two.
The veteran British fighter, no stranger to smack talk himself, has been at odds with the Kennedy camp for some time.
A 2011 Bisping fight with Jorge Rivera, who has sponsorship ties to Kennedy, also turned ugly. Both times, Bisping’s opponents targeted him on social media.
Bisping and Kennedy meet Wednesday night in the main event of The Ultimate Fighter Nations finale card.
