Michael Bisping found an unusual way to prepare for the duel he will have with Georges St Pierre at UFC 217, November 4th, in New York (USA). With his usual provocative stance, the current middleweight champion revealed that he has spies infiltrating the Canadian's training, highlighting that this will make him better informed about his next rival's plans.

Bisping recalls training with St. Pierre: 'He's a fraud'

“St-Pierre is in Los Angeles. He is training at Wild Card Boxing, with Freddie Roach. I have some spies there and, by the way, they gave me some information. Georges, if you're listening friend, this is public domain. I know people there and I know what you're working on. I know what you're training and it won't work on me, boy Georges!”, declared the fighter on his podcast “Believe You Me”.

When it came to how the fight would unfold, Bisping was even more emphatic. Confident, he assured that he will knock out GSP in the first round, after avoiding his opponent's takedown attempts.

“Usually, when I fight wrestlers, I tend to move a lot. I use a lot of lateral movements, back and forth, side to side, because if you're moving, it's difficult for a wrestler to try to go for the double leg, because you're a moving target. But I won't do that this time. I'm going to stand in front of him, I'm going to plant my feet on the ground, I'm going to put him on the defensive and I'm going to knock him out in the first round. Mark my words,” he concluded.
