Had Silva kOd him, Bisping would never make it to the belt. But the way he came back from the flying knee, it was all heart that helped him through adversity that night. He went through hell and back to win that match.

Bruce Buffer's "Its Time" was never more fitting than in the case of Bisping. It was his time, might I say he was destined to be the champion. And the stars perfectly aligned for that title shot. Bisping was shooting a movie, Jacare pulls out injured.. The wheels of destiny started turning in his favour. He gets a call and he immediately goes out for a run and what you know his conditioning is on point. Rockhold is on cloud nine, proclaims himself to be the crème de la crème, disses everybody else. Puts it out there that "no one is on my level". The Wheels of destiny turning further in Bisping's favour. Jason Parillo and Bisping drill the left hook day and night, its their most potent weapon, probably their only ace in the game.

Come Fight night, Rockhold is as cocky as ever, drops his hands and Bisping drills that left hook, Rockhold gets up and Bisping drills it again and "Its all over just like that". Bisping's pretty wife Rebecca puts it very succinctly - "I don't know what destiny is but that felt like destiny".
