Michael Bisping and Luke Rockhold had more than a few words for each other at the post UFC 199 press conference, and in a follow up incident, the new middleweight champ used a homophobic slur.

Bisping knocked Rockhold out in the opening round on Saturday, and during the post-fight press conference, he attempted to make amends with his rival. Rockhold, however, accused Bisping of being disingenuous and the two proceeded to argue.

After the press conference ended, the middleweights got in another heated, argument, and had to be separated. During the exchange, Bisping can be heard calling Rockhold a “f—got” . The British fighter, who lost to Rockhold in 2014, proceeded to say “I shouldn’t have said that.”

The exchange is below.
