Conor McGregor and Michael Bisping have a lot in common, both being quick-witted, trash-talking former UFC champions.

And they have also both made the move over from combat sports to acting and they are rubbing shoulders with Hollywood's elite.

Bisping has been in movies such as 'XXX: Return of Xander Cage' alongside Vin Diesel, with whom he is still friends, and Samuel L Jackson.

And next up he is due to appear in 'Den of Thieves 2' with Gerard Butler, having made a small cameo in the first film.

Meanwhile, McGregor will make his acting debut alongside Jake Gyllenhaal in Amazon Prime's new reimagining of the 1980's classic 'Road House'.

With that being said, Bisping will not be getting any acting advice from McGregor, as he told talkSPORT: "I don't need tips from Conor McGregor on anything in life.

"I don't need tips from Conor. I've been acting since 2009, I've done quite a lot, I've got about 20 credits in films.

"Conor, what's he doing, he's just made his acting debut, I don't need tips, I've got acting coaches for that."

Talk then turned to McGregor's next move in he UFC, with the Irishman having not fought since 2021.

He was expected to clash with Michael Chandler next, but he currently remains out of the USADA (United States Anti-Doping Agency) drugs testing pool and he has to be enrolled for six months if he wants to fight.

But, Bisping still believes the fight will happen, as he said: "He should fight Michael Chandler, that was the fight that was announced and was scheduled to take place.

"Obviously, there's a few red tape hurdles and things to get through with the USADA testing pool and things like that.

"I believe it will happen, you can say what you want about Conor McGregor, but you can't say the man isn't up for a fight or a test, he is, and I respect that about him.

"So, I think the fight with Michael Chandler will go ahead, it will be a sensational fight, I think Michael Chandler is exciting, he brings it every time he's in the Octagon and he's one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet by the way, so it will be an incredible fight."
