The trash talk between Michael Bisping and Yoel Romero is heating up.
Romero beat Chris Weidman with a flying knee at UFC 205 in New York on Saturday, and then he engaged in some trash talk with Bisping afterwards. Bisping, who was in attendance, ended up flipping Romero the bird in response.
On Monday, Bisping sent a tweet to Weidman, in which he labeled Romero a “cheat.”
@ChrisWeidmanUFC I know we had our differences but I was rooting for you against that cheat.All class in defeat, look 4ward 2 ur next bout

Romero tested positive for a banned substance earlier this year as a result of a tainted supplement. He received a six-month suspension after arbitration, so his fight with Weidman was his first one back.
Now 13-1 and having won all eight of his fights in the UFC, Romero appears on target to challenge Bisping next. Bisping appears to be game.
