Callum Bisping, the son of Britain's first UFC champion Michael Bisping, has suffered the first defeat of his amateur MMA career.

John McCain stopped the heavyweight by TKO at 1:06 of the second round of their amateur bout at SUNDOWN 2 at Mission Road Studio in Los Angeles on Saturday 10 October.

Callum won his amateur debut by unanimous decision in December 2025, then moved to 2-0 with a TKO win in April.

His father became the first British fighter to win a UFC title when he knocked out Luke Rockhold to take the middleweight belt at UFC 199 in June 2016.
