Down for the Count....

[Benoitthegr8]

Still dont understand why anyone ranks this guy in the top 5, he has blown every shot at a big fight... and Stann isn't a huge win.

 

[FlowWithTheGo23]

He's a solid fighter...just not a champ.

 

[Archleone]

It's like he's allergic to title shots.

 

[MMAdict]

Bisping gets so damn close but just never performs his best in the biggest spots. Major props to vitor he looked great.

 

[Edwin]

I like Bisping more as a character than as a fighter.

He's a UFC middleweight gatekeeper.

And nice and clever thread title TS.

 

[linvillegorge]

Not a Bisping fan, but pure class in the post fight interview.

 

[Perrichet]

That's MW for you. If he had stayed at LHW he wouldn't even be top 10

 

[Rekt 'em]

Gatekeeper status for the remainder of his career.

Hope the questions about his chin have been answered tonight. He took some savage shots and didn't go out.

Don't know why I am posting in here. Likely will be deleted like the last 10 to 15 threads.

I think Bisping will become an excellent trainer in 10 years. He has an excellent technical acumen but, man does that guy hesitate. He is just too cerebral sometimes.

 

[Benoitthegr8]

I'm glad he took the loss with some dignity, good stuff....

 

[Muay Thai #1]

Vitor should have spit on him

 

[reigning terroe]

Bisping beats middle of the road fighters to get in contention and then gets beat by better fighters. Wandy, Belfort and Hendo

 

[correaman13]

I feel bad for Bisping.

The UFC wants to give him a title shot but he can't deliver.

At least he's making plenty of cash

 

[GuiSilva]

Hope the questions about his chin have been answered tonight. He took some savage shots and didn't go out.

He didn't take a single clean shot to the jaw, and if it connected I was afraid it was gonna hurt Bisping badly.

No, he does perform his best but Bispings' best isn't good enough to beat the top guys.

 

[Dbreiden83080]

Bisping has 5 losses,


6 if you count Hammill..

Rashad
Hendo
Wandy
Chael
Vitor..


He just can't beat an elite fighter..

 

[Dbreiden83080]

This. Bisping is to be respected. He has gotten as much out of his talent as possible i believe. He works his ass off and has the fighters spirit.. Just lacks the big talent of the greats..

 

[Lebowski]

They keep him in the picture because of all the english fans that watch because of him. Same reason why Dana wanted Cain as champ for the latino demographic.
