Most MMA fans are aware of the fact that Michael Bisping uses a prosthetic glass piece to cover up his damaged right eye. However, a recent video showcased how an entire podcast crew, including Bisping's former rival, Luke Rockhold, was startled when he pulled out his glass eye.
Bisping had both eyes functioning during his entry into the UFC. But he sustained critical damage to his right eye after absorbing a kick from Vitor Belfort in the second round of their UFC on FX main event fight in January 2013.
The kick floored him and allowed Belfort to finish the fight in a few more seconds with some ground-and-pound. But Bisping also lost vision in his right eye because of the damage sustained by that kick. Despite the debacle, 'The Count' continued fighting and also went on to defeat Rockhold at UFC 199 in 2016 to seize the UFC middleweight gold.

Bisping appeared alongside Rockhold in the latest episode of Quinton Jackson's JAXXON PODCAST, where he took out his prosthetic glass eye amidst a banter with his former rival. His act squirmed Rockhold and Jackson, but it had the co-host of the podcast freaking and leaping out of his seat. After taking his glass eye out, Bisping exclaimed:

"Bro, I knocked you [Rockhold] out with one fu**ing eye, before we can even start [the banter]"

Michael Bisping linked his eye injury to Vitor Belfort's alleged cheating in their fight
Michael Bisping was left with a detached retina in his right eye from Vitor Belfort's head kick in the second round of their UFC on FX main event encounter in 2013. Bisping has talked about the fight multiple times since then. But a few years back, he held Belfort's PED usage responsible for damaging his eye.
In 2022, one of his fans on X questioned him whether he thought his eye injury could've been avoided. Bisping gave an affirmative reply along with accusing Belfort of cheating. He replied:
"Well, yeah. [But only] if Vitor wasn’t a drug-cheating p*ssy. But as I sit here with 2 newly discovered breaks in my lower back, I can confirm I have no regrets."
