Top 5 beefs in the UFC that turned into respect

#3 Michael Bisping vs. Dan Henderson

Bisping came back from a humiliating defeat

Here is another rivalry that began in the confines of the Ultimate Fighter reality show. These two were scheduled to square off at UFC 100 after major tension mounted during the show.

When they finally did square off during the UFC’s marquee event, Henderson humbled Bisping with a second-round KO. It was one of those finishes that must have made Henderson even more satisfied than usual, considering who it was he KOed – the original trash talker.

The crescendo to this long awaited rematch ended with Bisping gaining his revenge after what he called an “embarrassing” loss in a five-round war, retaining his middleweight title at UFC 204.

But yet again, controversy followed the Englishman, with Henderson questioning the judge’s final decision. Although disappointed with the outcome, Henderson thanked the champion for standing across from him for his final dance while Bisping praised the veteran for his durability and legendary status.
