Michael Bisping admits that his risky short-notice bout against Kelvin Gastelum didn’t pay off.

Bisping suffered two losses last month and was finished in both bouts. First, he lost his UFC middleweight title to Georges St-Pierre via submission at UFC 217. Then, he was knocked out by Kelvin Gastelum in the first round at a UFC Fight Night event in Shanghai, China.

During a recent addition of his “Believe You Me” podcast, Bisping talked about the aftermath of losing twice in one month:

“It was a big gamble, it didn’t pay off. Had it paid off it would have been great but that’s what you do. You roll the dice, you give it a shot, and you hope for the best, and the best man, I guess that was Kelvin so well done to him.”
