Prediction: correct Bisping   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 3  

After the sonnen vs bisping fight chael said he was out on his feet and got lucky bisping didnt realise how hurt he was.
This idea some fans have that bispings punches dont hurt has no basis.

Prediction: correct Bisping   correct Decision  

"@ MMAOPcom " Bisping doesn't have enough power to KO Stann, no submissions either ... but he wins decisions."


Out of 12 UFC wins for Bisping, 4 have been decisions. You don't need to have one punch KO power or flashy subs to get a stoppage."


Though i agree with you about the one punch KO power and flashy subs are not needed to get finishes your account of bispen wins are little misleading.


Elvis Sinosic and Eric Schafer both of which bispen beat va TKO are both known for bad chins and are not even mid tier guys.


Then you have Jason Day and Danis Kang both of which are not very good, chins arnt very good and all they have is power.


Then you have Jorge Rivera which would be by far the best finish of Bispen career, but it not legit. The TKO came about due to a VERY illegal knee. And should have been overturned as a no contest.


Jason Milelr I will give you is pretty impressive. He was a solid top 20 guy with a pretty solid chin. Out side him every legit top 20 guy he has foughten he has been unable to finish that includes Akiyama, Dan Miller, Chirs leben and Matt Hammill.


SO odds are he not likely a threat to finish Stann. However I am picking him to win.

Prediction: correct Bisping   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 3  

Rivera had his recovery time, and the rest of the round, and a minute between rounds, and then went down dam near 2 minutes into the next round. 
Yes the illegal knee was a bit of a ****ter, I cant defend it. But lets not act like thats what caused the stoppage.

It is what led to the stoppage.  Rivera clearly never recover from that shot. He came out extremely sluggish and clearly had a negative impact to his performance which led to bispen getting the tko. Hekk Rogan even states that time would be useless if he actually hurt that badly.  Rivera took for ever to even get to his feet and clearly looked out of it.

@wilflet Have you ever been kneed by a professional fighter in the head? None of us are in the position to judge whether Rivera had enough time to recover or not.

Plus it was pretty ******* obvious that Rivera was completely different after that knee.

Bisping's quote about knowing a thing or two about illegal knees is awesome.

Bisping landed an illegal knee ... boohoo get over it. Of course he did it on purpose, and I'm sure it did make a lasting effect on Rivera but it's good for Jorge because without the knee he could have quite possibly just got destroyed for 15 minutes straight, so hey. Bisping did him a favor.

Prediction: correct Bisping   wrong Submission   wrong Round 2  

Bisping doesn't need to worr about Stann rushing him the way he did Sakara because his wrestling is better than Stann's.  I hate Bisping but after watching him hold his own against Sonnen's wrestling attack I have no doubt he will take Stann down and battle on the ground with him where he is much better.

Bisping lost to Wanderlei Silva.

That's why I can't pick him to beat Stann.

Different weight class, different story and you know it. Also, didn't Stann beat him in a rematch?

The Amazing Michael Bisping lost to Wanderlei freakin' Silva in 2010 AT 185. Why the **** should he challenge for the title? WANDERLEI SILVA.

WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE GUY WITH ONE OF THE WORST UFC RECORDS EVVVVVVVVER! Dude's got 3 wins in the UFC banner, Cung Le, Keith Jardine AND MICHAEL BISPING. HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLO?!

If Bisping wins, he must have improved REMARKABLY in the past 2 years, losing to Wanderlei Silva doesn't exactly mean you're still elite lol.

Stann got utterly owned by Chael...and Bisping arguably beat Chael. Anik you're vastly under-estimating Bisping.
