Former UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping decided to choke out former Jackass star Steve-O in the octagon.

It was for a stunt and very typical of the crazy action star. Bisping locked in a rear naked choke on Steve-O and there was no tap, simply nap time.

Steve-O went unconscious and then woke up in an NSFW video.

“Oh (expletive),” Steve-O said with a laugh when he came to.

Bisping simply called him a “crazy (expletive).”

Steve-O is a big UFC fan and is regularly seen at big PPV cards and other fight nights. Bisping’s been a color commentator for a handful of years since his retirement from mixed-marital arts.

He is the former UFC middleweight champion (185 pounds) and well received on broadcasts.

The stunt between Bisping and Steve-O is quite hilarious. Especially when you factor in Bisping just cut off circulation and simply put Steve-O to sleep.

Once the blood rushes back to the brain, Steve-O is carefully helped up upon regaining consciousness.

Daniel Cormier discusses Conor McGregor, potential fight with Michael Chandler

With no fight against Michael Chandler booked yet, Conor McGregor fans might be restless. But either way, former double champion Daniel Cormier doesn’t see a tarnished legacy with McGregor.

However, Cormier dropped a bomb about McGregor and his fans. Maybe Steve-O should pitch in and help this fight get done.

“What I do believe though, is that if he doesn’t come back after doing The Ultimate Fighter, after always being around the fights, it will just seem like he just doesn’t want to do it anymore,” Cormier said. “And I would suggest that we kind of let him go. That’s where I would feel we would go as fans and people that cover Conor McGregor because then if he doesn’t want to fight, then he doesn’t want to fight. We can’t force him into doing this thing anymore. But I don’t think that legacy ever changes once you’ve accomplished what you accomplished.”

It seems like McGregor-Chandler is the only one that makes sense right now. Maybe that and a Nate Diaz trilogy fight, but the title days appear to be over.

McGregor and Chandler will face off as coaches in The Ultimate Fighter, set for a premiere date of May 30 on ESPN. UFC fans around the world will tune in for this season, especially Steve-O, we can assume.
