Jason Parillo Says Michael Bisping’s Recent Opponents Could Beat GSP
Jason Parillo is the longtime coach of current UFC Middleweight Champion Michael Bisping.
The famed MMA coach says that the last three opponents Bisping has faced would easily defeat the former UFC Welterweight Champion.
"We’re stoked. Not that it’s just a lottery with money. I know that people want to fight GSP because it’s a lottery of money and this is about money. It is. Once you’ve fought long enough you’ve got to get paid no matter which way you look at it and that’s where Michael Bisping kind of is at his career. Michael Bisping’s never ducked anybody in his whole career. He’s fought everybody. The last three fighters would kick GSP’s a** today. In a heartbeat. Do you understand what I’m saying? They would kick the s**t out of GSP. Are we concerned in fact that GSP can beat Michael Bisping? Of course. Anybody can beat anybody on any given day, especially a talented fighter like GSP. But we’ve been preparing for bigger beasts, badder beasts, stronger beasts and we’re gonna prepare for this guy. I promise you, Michael Bisping is gonna be good to go,” Parillo said to the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
For the record, Bisping’s last three opponents were former UFC Middleweight Champion Anderson Silva, former UFC Middleweight Champion Luke Rockhold and the now retired Dan Henderson. Parillo has also coached against GSP previously.
“I’ve had a fighter against Georges St-Pierre in the past and Georges St-Pierre is a very intelligent fighter. And very gifted and talented and strong. He really is well-rounded in all areas and that’s what makes the victory – when we win this fight – even that much sweeter,” said Parillo.
Bisping and GSP’s fight is set to take place sometime in the second half of the year.
