bisping is a very good fighter but
i hope he gets rocked by henderson! henderson is more experienced and if he can beat franklin, i am confident he will handle bisping…cant wait for this fight and the rest of the 100 card! not fighter bashing, would just love to see bisping get beaten by the experience of dan henderson
That looks like a pretty good landing spot for Dan’s right hand.

Lets see if Bisping can do what Rashad did against Chuck.

I think Bisping can stay fast and win a decision, but Hendo is impossible to KO.
Keep firing Assholes!
Out out, you demons of stupidity!
So was Randy prior to Chuck flipping his switch
So was Chuck prior to Rampage flipping his switch
So was Mark Hunt prior to Melvin Manhoef flipping his switch
FIghters age, and chins are not like fine wine, they do not get better with age. Someone is eventually going to brutally KO Hendo. Will it be now? Will it be Bisping? I hope not. But never say never. It will happen eventually.

Chuck, Rampage, and Melvin all have big time power. Bisping doesn’t.

and actually
when I looked at the UFC site, I noticed that 5 of Bispings 8 UFC fights ended with him winning via TKO.
But no KTFOBBQs. I’m talking about 1 punch = forget Gr 4 power. Nog wasn’t out clean either, and he was hurting from something before he even stepped into the octagon for his fight.
Keep firing Assholes!
Out out, you demons of stupidity!
Does Bisping really have the skills?
I’m really curious to hear what you guys think. I’m indecisive on which way to go on this.
Yes. He is very well rounded. Solid wrestling, TD defense, BJJ defense, and very solid striking. If he can stay off his back enough he could surely win this one
Bisping’s last fight was with Chris Leben, and I wasn’t impressed. Hendo is 10x the fighter that Leben could ever imagine to be. Comparatively, that’s why I think Hendo is going to take this one.
thoughts?
No reason to write “thoughts” in a blog, as sharing your thoughts is what a blog is all about. Pet peeve.
Leban is inconsistent so its hard to judge with him. Sometimes he comes in flat, sometimes he is a world beater, but in general he is a tough fight for anyone except A. Silva. Bisping did fare well in the deep LHW division though and destroys mid level MWs. I think Hendo will will, but I would bet on Bisping if I could get better than +200
Best training camp ever.
They need to stop saying that.

Bisping is probably going to have an advantage on the feet. My observation would be that his standup is crisper and more technical than Henderson’s. Although he has to be wary of the fact that Henderson has a powerful right hand.
I think who wins the fight comes down to whether Bisping can keep this mostly a kickboxing match or whether Henderson can take it to the ground. On the feet Henderson of late has looked a lot like Chuck..looking for that one end all punch. It hasn’t really worked out for either of them.
If Henderson wins it will be via ground and pound leading to a decision or stoppage.
Bisping’s strength and quickness has looked pretty solid so far at middleweight. I’ll be interested to see if that allows him to be “elusive” and fend off the shot.
psssh. unless Hendo pulls a Nog and gets old in the space of one fight, he will crush Bisping. Bisping hasn’t faced a single top level fighter, nevermind a guy who’s fought the record that Hendo has…

bisping hasn’t been aggreissive against any mildly dangerous opponent, look at his run jobs against Hammill and Leben for evidence of that…and i’m willing to bet that Hendo has a meaner right hand than both of them, leben’s close, but Hendo slayed Vanderlei and others when Vanderlei was at his peak and had only lost to CroCop and a few others.
