- Born in Nicosia (Cyprus), where his dad Konrad was a sniper for the British Army, Michael Bisping lived pretty much the first half of his life doing dead end jobs between Clitheroe and Manchester. He's always been fascinated by MMA in general from the beginning, where mixed martial art wasn't even considered a sport. Married young, and father of 3, he was always considered an outsider and an underdog, even when he got to the UFC, where he was the first Englishman to win a world title. His commentating, sport analysis, enterprising, and acting credentials are the keys to his after fighting life.- IMDb mini biography by: Wikipedia and Believe You Me podcast
