As much as Bisping or Rashad like to think Micheal has a chance I highly doubt it. His take downs could help with this but I don't think he could rough him up down there. I also think Anderson is far too elusive and wouldn't be worried about this. Since Bispings shots aren't as effective as Sonnens. 
Also Bisping leaves his chin high and that's how Hendo caught him. Bispings footwork is far too predictable for a counter striker like Anderson. He would be going to la la land if he tried to traide with Silva and it may take a round or so to get in the groove to figure out MB's timing, but he'd figure it out and we'd have another knockout high reel for "The Spider".
I hope he's not ballsy and tries to use his sloppy Muay Thia against one of the best in the world. Anderson would shrug it off and probably show him how to really properly use the Muay Thia clinch. 
I for one am not a Bisping hater but come on. This won't look too well for "The Count".

Shad's chances are low too.. he only has his wrestling and.. well.. you all know how that goes w/ Anderson.  He always finds a way.  It is going to take an up-and-comer.. a young freak like a MW Jon Jones who has surpassed the status quo of MMA at the present.  Anyone see a fighter like that in the MW division?
