Petition to get a knighthood for Michael Bisping
Why is this important?
Michael Bisping (born 28 February 1979) is an English sports analyst, actor, commentator and retired mixed martial artist, who competed in the Middleweight division of the UFC. A professional competitor since 2004, he is a former UFC Middleweight Champion, a former Cage Rage Light Heavyweight Champion and The Ultimate Fighter 3 Light Heavyweight tournament winner. At UFC 78, he became the first British fighter to compete in a UFC main event. At UFC 199, he became the first British fighter to win a UFC Championship and he remains the sole British winner of a UFC title. He was inducted into the UFC Hall of Fame on July 5, 2019.
Bisping transcended the sport of MMA and took up acting. He has starred in such movies as 'xXx: The Return of Xander Cage', starring alongside Vin Diesel, and as the infamous Roy "Pretty Boy" Shaw in 'My Name Is Lenny'. He even had a small role in David Lynch's 'Twin Peaks'.
Michael Bisping has established himself as one of the most successful and longest tenured fighters in UFC history while also becoming a pioneer for MMA in the United Kingdom. He is an inspiration for young fighters around the country and this should be recognised with a knighthood.
All hail The Count!
