"Wow am I jealous of that table!" - Fans react to Michael Bisping's star-studded dinner with MMA legends

Fans reacted to a photo of UFC Hall of Famer Michael Bisping having dinner with several other well-respected MMA legends.

In November 2017, Bisping ended his legendary professional MMA career following a first-round knockout loss against Kelvin Gastelum. Since then, the former UFC middleweight champion has made a smooth transition into being a commentator and analyst, creating a path for a long-term career.

Earlier this week, 'The Count' sat down for a dinner with UFC commentator Jon Anik, former UFC welterweight champion Kamaru Usman, and former UFC interim lightweight champion Justin Gaethje. Bisping posted a photo of them together on X and added the following caption:

"Dinner with a few legends after a long work week @USMAN84kg @Justin_Gaethje @Jon_Anik."

Fans took to the comment section and reacted to Bisping having dinner with fellow MMA legends, including the following people saying:

"Wow I am jealous of that table! What a cool opportunity."

"To be a fly on the wall"

"Table of legendary gentlemen"

"Legendary table. God bless you guys"

Twitter comments

Bisping and Anik are significant contributors to the UFC commentator team. Meanwhile, Usman and Gaethje's stories inside the octagon are still being written, as they look to bounce back from losses.

What's next for Michael Bisping's dinner guests Kamaru Usman and Justin Gaethje?

In August 2022, Kamaru Usman was shockingly dethroned of the UFC welterweight title due to a last-second knockout from Leon Edwards. Usman suffered majority decision losses in his next two fights against Edwards (rematch) and Khamzat Chimaev, creating questions about how much gas is left in the tank.

Usman's last fight was a short-notice middleweight bout against Chimaev, which 'The Nigerian Nightmare' almost won. The 37-year-old is expected to return to the welterweight division later this year, where he will face a top contender to defend his number-one ranking.

As for Justin Gaethje, he's coming off a devastating knockout loss against Max Holloway at UFC 300. 'The Highlight' will likely be sidelined for an extended period, maybe until 2025, to fully recover from the damage endured during the legendary BMF title fight in April of this year.

Once Gaethje returns, he's going to have many options, as he's considered one of the biggest superstars in the UFC. The 35-year-old holds the number three ranking in the lightweight division, making him one or two wins away from a title shot.
