I know the little hulk is out till september (I think)

I think Palhares had a good chance, you know he wil get the takedown, and Bisping isnt known for his strenght or heavy hands

Good match up for Palhares imo.

A name for Palhares, and a comeback fight for the count
 
Something tells me that Palhares would attack with leg locks first; and if that doesn't work he'll get punched in the face until the ref jumps in.
 
Interesting fight. I want to see it. It makes sense.
 
Palhares is a weird one to call. His head doesn't seem to be in the game at times, I think Bisping would finish him in the second or third round though.

In any case I'd like to see Bisping vs Belcher/Tim Kennedy.
 
Pal would grab a leg, and try to rip it off.

Would it work? Idk. Hopefully.

Always thought bisping has been a bit overrated.
 
guessing he'd get tko'd by bisping after the initial portion of the fight

Bisping wins easily.

To beat Bisping ... you have to have very good striking with speed and power.
Wrestling doesn't work on Bisping ... his defensive wrestling is amongst the best in the sport.

And even if you get him down ... his scrambles are top notch too.

If you have really slow striking ...with a good chin ... you might have a chance but it will be hard to land a solid shot on Bisping.

Bisping is a very very very good fighter. Stylistically ... he is a bad fight for most ground base fighters.
 
Maybe skip the trashtalk on that one(if it would ever happen)

I got that same feeling.
 
Bad fight for Toquinho. Honestly the guy needs to fight some lower level guys like Brunson or Smith before he steps up against good competition again. There's some badly needed confidence there.

I like the trash talk, it's funny most of the time. The Rashad, Day, Leben, Kang, Dan Miller, Akiyama and Sonnen fights were a little bland in their build up, due to the lack of banter imo.
 
tougher fight to call then some might think.

Palharas can be a beast if you cannot make him quit with a big punch. Bisping has solid tdd but lacks that big punch that might gain Palharas respect.

Could Bisping keep it standing long enough to tire Palharas out and use volume punching to beat him? Or would Palharas not respect Bispings power and just push until he got his td and then maybe submit him?
 
Bisping vs belcher and palhares vs Tom Lawlor make far more sense.
