"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." --John Morgan, lead
staff reporter for MMA Junkie, host of The MMA Road Show
