Bisping told a hilarious story of how his vision once led him to accidentally swing at an old woman on the street. He said,” I am always hitting people in the face. And it’s always an old lady. Because I am very animated. I talk with my hands. For example, I’m at a crosswalk in New York City. And I’m in the middle of telling a story *swings hand*… I’ve gone like that into someone’s face.”
He joked,” It’s always a little old lady. For some reason, always an old lady. And then they look at me like I’m the biggest dickhead on the planet. I am so sorry.”

In his conversation with Joe Rogan, Bisping spoke about how his vision has made him different.
He said, “I miss all the time. I’m always misreading how far something is. Because you have the depth perception and everything is too deep. Sometimes it can fuck with me a little bit. It can get a little blurry. I get a little dizzy.”
