Was Bisping's win a fluke?

[KB Warrior]

I think Rockhold wins 90% of the time these guys fight. Good for Bisping that he got it done but I don't think he's better than Rockhold by any means.

 

[Summoning]

No,

deal with it.

 

[Negative Zero]

Using the word "fluke" around here really riles people up, but I think most people would agree that Rockhold is probably the better fighter overall.

 

[CJohnny]

Maybe.

I still think that Rockhold will never reach his potential. He is weak inside, doesn't do well under pressure. And that is maybe the reason for his chin being bad.

But at the same time, if they rematch, it can look like the first fight.

 

[MatRat75]

he came out tonight, fluke or not hes the champ... and well deserved at that

 

[Soul On Ice]

No, he already beat him up in sparring before, Luke's win was a fluke

 

[MaureenCretis]

Maybe it was. It no longer matters. Michael Bisping is the Middleweight Champion of the World.

 

[XxWolfXx]

fuck no, rockhold got countered. perfectly placed left.

 

[Sampsonsimpson]

No, he punched Rockhold right on the jaw and knocked him out, which is the intended result of punches.

 

[soulsstealer]

No i think their coaches saw this opportunity from before and bisbng capitalized.

 

[Kovalev's "Man Bag"]

Nope. Rockhold needs to learn how to box. His "surf-skate" stance (seriously?) and check hook aren't enough to cut it. He's a great kicker and his ground game is spectacular though. Bisping's boxing has gotten much better under Parillo. He dropped Anderson and just knocked out the MW champ. That's impressive shit.

 

[KONE]

He intended to punch him in the head repeatedly and did it

gonna have to say no here

 

[Pls Respond]

They are 2-1 according to bisping.


So no it's not 90%.


Luke's chin sucks btw.

 

[dildos]

no. rockhold fought really stupidly and let that happen to him. chin up hands down. yep really smart luke.

 

[Fuzzybabyducks]

first Anderson now this... think its time we start thinking of him as a champion and good fighter instead of a gatekeeper.. six months ago almost everyone thought he was just the GOAT gatekeeper, myself included, but think in his last two fights he proved himself. Not really a fan but I cheered and was happy for him.

The better fighter on paper doesn't always win the fight, and Rockhold's boxing disadvantage got exposed.
Plus it's not like Rockhold slipped on blood or sweat so cut it out with the fluke shit

 

[Spookv]

No, he already beat him up in sparring before, Luke's win was a fluke

OOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[MarleyLynx]

He was winning until the KO..... Don't think "fluke" fits that definition.

 

[neomage2021]

No,

deal with it.

well we know he wins 50% of the time

If Luke gets his head out his ass and actually takes his opponents serious then the count would have not won. Michael is a great fighter ,but luke is more of an elite fighter. It's like rousey not touching gloves with holly, being a prick can come back to ruin a fight
