Bisping deserves a lot of credit, but let's be realistic, he's still by far the easiest out in the MW top 5 right now, and he's holding the title.

I dont count anyone completely out, but will any of you be willing to bet on Bisping making even one successful defense? I really cant see it, but then again I was pretty confident he would lose tonight too.

Still, I imagine the 3 top MW contenders are all praying they get the next shot.

Jacare has already clearing off his mantle, making room for his future belt.

Just like Rockhold and Weidman thought this was an easy gift?

Definitely not.

Now as unlikely as that was, think of how low the odds are that he somehow pulls off another huge upset (because whoever his opponent is Bisping will surely be a sizeable underdog)

You got 3 alligators looking at a fking duck and saying...I want it first...lol
 
Romero doesn't have much for Bisping. If he can't get the finish Bisping will pick him apart.. This is probably the easiest match up of all the top MWs for Bisping.

Yeah, i'd tend to agree actually. Bisping's cardio is second to none, and he can really lay it on you for 5 rounds straight. If Romero dosen't put him away in 2, i don't see him winning the decision tbh.

I've been saying it too.. We can't count him out anymore, his last two fights have been impressive. KO'n the champ on a couple weeks notice? Man..

I dont think so. Romero has only struggled against strong grinders like Kennedy, Jacare, and Brunson (and still beat them all).
Against strikers that give him time and space he looks unstoppable. Watch the Machida or Brad Tavares fights. Bisping gets clipped trying to outpoint Romero, possibly slammed to the mat if he gets too close. I'd have Romero as a heavy favorite in that one.

Not saying Bisping is a lock, just saying its probably his best chance of defending the belt.

Ya you're probably right, Weidman and Jacare could be even worse for him.

Then again, Bisping does tend to get KTFO or dropped by slower heavy hitters like Wand / Dan. It's tricky lol

Hope Weidman doesn't sneeze or cough while licking anything, he may break his back or separate his shoulder... Brittle China doll fuck....
 
Bisping is skilled and experienced enough to hang with anyone, you shouldn't Count him out.
 
I had to unfollow Romero for the time being, My twitter was just like 9 pages of Retweets from romero
