Michael Bisping says he was almost robbed and could have been killed in Cape Town

Former UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping had a harrowing experience during his stay in Cape Town, South Africa. In the most recent episode of his Believe You Me podcast, the recent Hall of Fame inductee recounted the entire story which happened late last week.

“We go out for a Chinese meal, [I] don’t like Chinese but whatever…” Bisping said (transcript by BJPenn.com). “We end up having a few drinks. I get back, it’s like three o clock in the morning and the Uber driver drops me off at a four-way cross street not by my hotel, and he says ‘your hotel is over there’, so I get out the car and the Uber driver drives off and I don’t know which way to go.
