Former UFC middleweight champion, Michael Bisping, once spoke about how the Royal house and the Queen play a huge role in depicting the culture and history of the country. He said, “The monarchy is a little outdated and all the rest of it, but it does show the history of the culture. And that I love. They bring in so much money in tourism attractions and the whole pomp and circumstance are pretty f***ing cool.”
