ZOO Names Bisping UK's Coolest 2008
« on: December 26, 2008, 07:52:38 PM »
Britain's hard nuts are the coolest men of 2008 - it's official! That's the verdict as we unveil our 100 Coolest British Blokes of the Year.

Top of the list for this year is none other than Michael Bisping - Britain's leading UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) fighter. Thousands of you had a think about who's the coolest lad in the land - and Bisping won hands down.

Bisping, 29, from Clitheroe in Lancashire, is Britain's finest export in the UFC and won two huge bouts this year in Birmingham against tough opposition from across the pond. The mixed martial artist is a former light heavyweight champion and has only been defeated once in his illustrious career.

When we told Mike about his win, he said: "I am totally shocked, but honoured to be voted the coolest man in the UK by ZOO readers."

Runners-Up
Paddy Power bookies' favourite Lewis Hamilton finished just behind Bisping in second place. Last year's winner Noel Gallagher is still a massive favourite of yours as he finished third ahead of big screen action heroes Jason Statham (4th) and Daniel Craig (5th).
