Michael Bisping has ‘a very different opinion’ than Leon Edwards on fighting in the middle of the night

Michael Bisping disagrees with Leon Edwards on what it’s like to fight in the middle of the night.

Edwards (22-4 MMA, 14-3 UFC) lost his welterweight title to Belal Muhammad at UFC 304 in July, which took place in Manchester, England in U.S. prime time. Edwards cited fighting in the middle of the night as the reason why he performed lethargically, but Bisping can’t relate.

Bisping experienced fighting late himself when he retained his middleweight title in a thriller against Dan Henderson at UFC 204. Unlike Edwards, Bisping admits fighting at an odd timing did not impact his performance.
