An unlucky thief recently found out who Michael Bisping is the hard way.

The UFC legend is currently in Paris sightseeing with his wife, Rebecca, after working as a commentator at Dana White’s show in the French capital on Saturday night.

On Tuesday, the former middleweight champion shared a video to social media that recapped his morning, which included eating breakfast and chasing down a thief.

He added the caption: “Some little s*** snatched Rebecca’s bag. Not on my watch.”

Bisping told a story about someone stealing from his wife before trying to take off.

‘The Count’ ran after the robber and had him begging for mercy.

“I chase after him, get a hold of him, he had the bag already hidden in a towel,” Bisping said.

“Got the bag off him. He didn’t speak a word of English, obviously.

“Didn’t do anything to him, got the bag back. He was shitting his pants, poor guy. He was like, ‘Please, please, please. Oh, mercy, mercy, mercy’.

“I let him go, turned around, boom, just gave him a nice kick up the a***.”

“Anyway, got the bag back and all is good.”

UFC fans flooded Bisping’s comment section to laugh at the thief for targeting one of the best fighters in MMA history.

One person tweeted: “Out of 8 billion people he picked a former UFC champion to steal from lmao.”

Another said: “Imagine being gripped up by a one-eyed, cauliflower eared mob boss looking UFC champion. He must’ve thought it would be his end.”

Someone else wrote: “Picked the wrong couple to try and snatch a bag from. That fool is lucky Bisping is so generous and understanding.”

A fourth person joked: “Of all the bags in Paris to nick they tried that one.”

The incident didn’t seem to bother Bisping, who was walking around the Palace of Versailles whilst telling the world about his crimefighting exploits.

Bisping will enjoy some more downtime with his wife before returning to the broadcast booth next weekend.

Joe Rogan, Daniel Cormier and Jon Anik will call UFC 307 on Saturday night.
