Michael Bisping snaps as Chris Weidman gets personal on Twitter

Is there such a thing as "too far" in the fight game?

Few are more experienced than Michael Bisping in the trash talk department and he feels like Chris Weidman's latest jibe was a low blow. Everybody wants a piece of the UFC middleweight champion nowadays, with Yoel Romero the most vocal rival of the Brit. But Romero is suddenly being given a run for his money by former 185lbs champ Weidman. 'The All American' got back in the win column on Saturday night when he claimed a much-needed victory over rising star, Kelvin Gastelum, in the main event of UFC on Fox 25. An arm triangle gave Weidman his first win in his last four outings and put him back on track for a title run. Following on from the third round submission, Weidman referred to Bisping as "a British bum" as he attempted to coax him into a scrap. 'The Count' hit back on Twitter and that's when things got ugly. https://twitter.com/bisping/status/888950481401159680 https://twitter.com/ChrisWeidmanUFC/status/889078547398217729 Then Weidman took things to a personal level as he brought up Bisping's detached retina, an injury that stemmed from his defeat to Vitor Belfort in 2013. "We all know the dangers of this sport," Bisping explained to the Three Amigos Podcast in 2015. "I mean, we're trying to knock each other out. "I've been left permanently disfigured, if you will, from my fight with Vitor Belfort. Vitor Belfort head kicked me and that's what caused my detached retina. "Since then, I've had five surgeries, and my eye is never going to look the same again. That was one of the reasons why I said I was never fighting anybody else with a steroid history." Weidman's next tweet was a direct reference to Bisping's eye and that insult was a step too far, according to the Brit. https://twitter.com/ChrisWeidmanUFC/status/889204717619994624 https://twitter.com/bisping/status/889215090947268608 https://twitter.com/bisping/status/889218689282736128 https://twitter.com/bisping/status/889221538469302272 https://twitter.com/bisping/status/889222474839322624
