Samenvatting:

“The fighter’s life is not an easy one. No one knows that more than Michael Bisping. But few have done it better.”
—Thomas Gerbasi, UFC.com

Britain’s own Rocky Balboa, Michael Bisping tells the incredible story of how he went from rough and humble beginnings and then on to a legendary career capped by winning the Middleweight Championship.

“If I quit the first time I tasted defeat, I wouldn’t be here now,” Bisping once said. The ultimate UFC underdog, Bisping fought his way to Number One contender status three times, only to be knocked back. But he refused to give in, clawing his way to his first World Title shot at the age of 37—when he finally became champion in one of the greatest upsets in UFC history.

Loaded with the humor and brutal honesty that first won him a following and made him one of the sport’s biggest stars, Bisping recounts his record setting 13-year fight career battling the likes of Anderson Silva, Georges St-Pierre, and Dan Henderson.

“The Count” tells his story in a way that only he knows how.

“[An] unprecedented look at one of the most incredible—and most entertaining—careers the UFC has ever seen.”
