Michael Bisping didn't just capture gold at UFC 199 on Saturday night, he also evened the score against Luke Rockhold.
The new champion's first-round knockout of Rockhold avenged the submission loss that he suffered in their first meeting in November 2014, and now that they're tied at one win apiece, the rivalry between the two is only growing.
That animosity was evident at the evening's post-fight presser, where Bisping and Rockhold shared some choice words.
"That guy is such a dick," said Rockhold. "That guy is a piece of s--- and I want to f---ing come kill him next time. He's a maggot."
That didn't sit well with Bisping, who was already upset with how Rockhold handled the loss in the cage.
"I shook your hand and you told me to fuck off," said Bisping. "You got knocked out, buddy. Sit down, shut up. What an a--hole."
When Rockhold refused to give proper credit to Bisping for the win, Bisping was happy to correct him.
"Have you seen the replay, buddy?" Bisping asked. "Your head was bouncing around like a pingpong ball."
Rockhold didn't settle down after leaving the press conference, throwing a jab at Bisping's previous comments about his "destiny" of being heavyweight champ on Twitter.
Destiny is a bitch.

A rematch may be in order somewhere down the line for these two and if the end of this press conference was any indication, it will definitely be personal.
