Everything changed for Michael Bisping after his encounter with Vitor Belfort in 2013. The knockout loss wasn’t what affected Bisping’s future but the injury he sustained while he was in the Octagon.

Since no one noticed the injury, Bisping’s eye gradually started deteriorating which resulted in him being legally blind in his left eye. This didn’t stop Bisping, who continued fighting winning two out of four of his fights but later was forced to sit on the bench due to his medical condition.

However three years after sustaining his injury Michael Bisping made a terrific comeback and went on to defeat Luke Rockhold winning the title via a knockout in the first round.

Bisping in a recent radio interview didn’t shy away from removing his glass eye and showing it off, but unknown to Bisping the said interview with TalkSPORT was even being broadcasted online as a video. However this isn’t the first time he has done this. While admitting that his glass eye was the reason he wore sunglasses all the time, Michael removed his glass eye in an interview that was conducted in 2019.
