Mamed Khalidov or Bisping?
I'm a fan of Mamed, he's a beast and everything, but one thing bothers me a little bit. He is called number 1 middleweight in Europe. It doesn't mean much, and I'm from Poland, so maybe the media are biased, but I've been hearing it everytime he fights.
He's on a nice streak and has been steamrolling his opponents for quite a time, but most of them aren't in their prime. Fighting in KSW doesn't give him the opportunity to match with the best in the world.
Bisping, on the other hand, has been fighting the best guys on the planet. Losing only few decisions to former champions or legends in the sport (excluding Chael, who imo lost the Bisping fight). There was ofc the H-Bomb KO, but hey, it happens ;].
So, is Mamed Khalidov the best middleweight in Europe, or it is Bisping? My money is on The Count, although i like Mamed's style more.

I'm a fan of both.
I'd say Bisping at this point.

They probably meant fighting in Europe and didn't consider Mike when they said that. Mamed is a great mw, but he is fighting Kendel Grove on short notice (he was going to fight a worse opponent) while Bisping is getting ready to fight Vitor. They are fighting at different levels. Not saying Mamed could not beat him or anything, but Bisping is fighting the better guys and looking good.

I'll go with Mamed. Bisping is by far the more accomplished fighter but I believe that Mamed has the skill to put Bisping away.

Obviously Bisping man, he is the N°1 in Europe of course, he has been proved, as much as I'm a fan of Khalidov he hasn't been proved too much yet... but he is amazing tho.
It doesn't matter who would win, it's about facts, and Bisping has bigger facts.
