I wish Anderson would come into the cage and knock them both out on general principle. Both dudes are f*cking assholes.

Bisping would be the most over matched guy ever sent into to be slaughtered by Anderson silva ... I'm sick of those British toss offs talking about how he deserves a title shot .. If he's knocked out tonight those talks will stop for ever I hope

I don't know about him being the most overrated guy to ever fight Anderson Silva. Demian Maia and Vitor Belfort after having fought 0 fights at middleweight might have something to say about that.

I'm no fan of Bisping or Belfort. They can both eat a dick for all I care. But I will be watching. I mean, hell, I'm already watching prelims and I've never heard of any of these dudes.

He said over matched not overrated and you are incorrect. Belfort fought twice at 185 before facing Anderson silva. He was ranked in top 10 middleweight at time of fight. He fought terrible Terry Martin and matt linland both at 185 under the affliction banner.

And as far as most over matched in the ring with silva that would definitely go to the three light heavyweights he has demolished in his 3 fights at 205

Bisping has absolutely nothing to offer against silva. All he uses is that technical footwork work moving in and out back peddling throwing jabs, he has no power And no chin ... Bisping is tailor made for a highlight reel destruction at the hands of silva

First off no chin???? He has only been stopped twice in his mma career. Once was at the hard over hand right of Dan Henderson. One of the hardest over hand rights in mma.. No shame in that. And last night was stopped by belfort who is arguably one of the top 10 best finishers in mma an who has won 8 of his last 10 fights. Only losses are to silva and jones on 2 weeks notice.. Not bad credentials. And bisping should have had his shot at silva last year because he nbeat chael sonnen in their fight.

Secondly nobody would offer a match to silva besides possibly Jon jones. Gsp don't want any and is obviously dodging silva. Anybody in the ring is overmatched with him plain and simple. Yes silva would have crushed bisping in first round but he does that w most guys he fights.

GSP is way to small to fight Silva. I still give GSP a 25% chance of grinding out a methodical decision. I want to see weidman fight silva ...

Vitor had zero UFC fights at middleweight when he was given his shot against Anderson. He had fought at 195 against Rich Frankin and that's it. Oh, and mma rankings are complete and total bullshit. There's no arbitrary way to determine them, just opinions of websites. And beating Terry Martin and Matt Lindland is far from impressive enough to garner a supposed "top ten ranking" at middleweight. He was given the shot because he's (supposedly) a big draw. He was given the shot at Jones because there was literally nobody else to give the shot. And the way they said last night Vitor gave Bones his toughest fight was also bullshit. Rashad Evans went the distance with Bones and even checked his chin.

Weidman will be destroyed. Somebody has to be made to seem like they can beat silva at 185. Weidman is just the person who has had his name inserted in that place. He has 9 pro fights. Not nearly enough experience to step in ring w silva. Yes beat Maia And Munoz but neither of them could touch silva..

Now mind you I hate Anderson silva like you hate bisping. But you can't argue that he is probably the best to ever fight in the UFC. Only time he has come close to losing was to sonnen and sonnen tested positive for PEDS after that fight so he had a little help I the strength department

[Aron41D]

Your first post you said vitors first fight at middleweight was silva. You said nothing about first UFC fight so you are wrong. He had two middleweight fights before silva. Secondly belfort almost dislocated jones elbow in the fight. That is by far closest jones has come to losing so therefore it was his biggest test to date.. Like I said belfort had 2 weeks notice... Give him a full camp and he could have a better shot. Rashad did not test jones chin at all. He hit him flush maybe once or twice and had one semi solid head kick. Jones payed with him the whole fight. Jones submitted belfort and got out of there because he had an injured arm from the armbar attempt. Chances are good no one will beat jones just like no one will beat silva. And belfort was givin the fight with jones because he was the only one that would accept the fight on short notice. Machida and rua both turned the fight down. Do you pay attention to mma news and stories and follow it or do you just watch the fights??? Because you hadn't heard of any of the prelim fighters...if you follow mma you should have known all but 1 of those guys...

I follow very closely , I read every story on every web site every day , there were a lot of no name fighters on the prelims as there always are on cards outside of the US. If the UFC wants to be as mainstream as they want to be , there is going to have to be something other than throwing darts at a board blindfolded to determine title shots. It needs to be who deserves in and not who Dana thinks the fans want to see. Uriah Faber loses badly every title shot but sill gets another one with a 1 fight winning streak. Frankie Edgar is coming off back to back losses and gets an immediate title shot .. Sonnen gets ko'd by silva and is allowed to move to 205 and get an immediate title shot ? Hendo earned the shot and hurt his knee so as a punishment for hurting his knee he has to fight machida and possibly still not be next in line ?? The entire process is a joke

I was asking bacon bits bro not you lol

There are no no name fighters in the UFC. Just guys you haven't heard of. If you are fighting in the UFC you have a name. And when they fight out of country they are not tying to be mainstream they are trying to cater to the city and are hosting the fight... Most of the guys you had never heard of are very accomplished fighters and well known in brazil. They do the same when they go to candada featuring Canadian fighters; they do the same in Japan and England. And Frankie Edgars losses to Ben fagboy Henderson can be attributed to the judges. He won both those fights in a very large portion of people's eyes. And faber is by far the most overrated fighter in the UFC today. I agree the process is a joke. Machida was supposed to be top contender after beating bader by a convincing ko. That's night of fights the most impressive was to get the next shot... So out of nowhere sonnen gets plopped in w jones. And machida and hendo are now fighting for top contender status. Injuries and cards changing and contender status changing were not the same before the fighters were givin health insurance. Now they don't have to fight injured to get free medical coverage or workers compensation. That's why guys drop out so quick when injured now and why so many fights change. It can't be easy trying to figure out who will fight who when every single card has 2-3 fights that get changes from the get go. Not to mention when an injury happens guys area already booked to fight so finding replacements can be difficult

I feel both fights were clear but close victorys for Benson , but then again I can't stand Frankie Edgar so maybe my opinion Is slanted. I am we'll aware of how the cater to the local crowds for the shows out of the United States , I actually said that in my post lol . I think they should worry about having the best fighters fight as opposed to the best fighter who happen to live local. The UFC is supposed to be like the NFL people to watch NFL games to see the best players play regardless of where they are from .

Glad I don't read your articles then lol. How could you be a writer an not know who the prelims fighters were??? That just makes you look like you don't know about the sport you "write" about". So where are your famed mma articles at?

Not to mention that mma writers are all biasly flawed. Chuck mindenhall is the biggest douche of them all and he is espns mma guru. Half the time he doesn't even know what he's talking about.. Like some people on this board!!!

My point was you make it sound so easy to schedule the fights.. It's not lol. And the only title matches they throw darts at are 145 185 and 205 because they don't have any options because nobody who has been top contender has been able to win. Gotta keep putting people up against the champs even if it is a chump. Can't not have them fight because the next guy isn't the best match for them... Maybe the guy that is best match is injured or already fighting or coming off a fight. I would say condit vs gsp was a good title fight and Cain vs jds was good matchup. Every fight at 155 is a good matchup regardless of who is fighting who cuz that class is full of animals
