I went to 199, why was everybody doubting Bisping so much? I had a feeling he was going to win.

i went to the fight, and yes it was awesome to be there. I was the only one in my area that was giving Bisping a chance. And once I saw how relaxed Rockhold was when he came out, it totally reminded me of Mir just before he gets KO'd. Whenever Mir loses he walks out with a super confident look like he's a bored, jaded DMV employee, and Rockhold had that look tonight. I had such a feeling there there was going to be an upset, that the guy sitting next to me tried and bet me $100. I was tempted, but money's tight, so I didn't want to gamble. But why doubt Bisping so much? He has been a tough competitor his entire career, and last minute replacement fighters often upset opponents (Diaz anyone?). Yet, almost everybody was counting Bisping out, almost like this fight was a joke. I honestly feel that in the big boy divisions, anybody can beat anybody as long as they get a clean shot.

y would u bet the guy? u could have bet the bookie and made 500%+ profit
 
Tbh we all doubted bisping because of the 1st fight and well, because its bisping.

Hes alway choked in any title eliminator fight. Hence the reason he never got a shot at the belt before now.

Also because luke is a sick ass fighter.

I cant even say hindshight blaa blaa simply because i dont think it would happen again.

You paid hundreds to watch even though you don't have $100 spending money?

BTW you could have bet 50 bucks on Bisping by KO and won $450.

Nobody thought Bisping was going to KO Rockhold. That's why he was +900 and +1500 when the line opened.
 
This was a MW fight.
I would consider MW big boy a division because they're often 6' plus and walk around at around 200 lbs. But I guess that would be a judgement call. But most MW guys, that size definetly have heavy hands.
 
In mma everyone has a chance.
I just thought bispings chance was low cause I didn't think he had the power

My ticket was 90 bucks, great seat for 90 btw. And paying 90 for 10 fights that you're for sure going to watch at a live event is a lot different than 100 you maybe could win, but could also easily lose. So not all money is equal.
