Is it just me, or is Bisping totally out-classed here? I think of Tito/Rashad, and try to imagine Bisping/Tito... I just can't see how Bisping can pull this off. Of course there are upsets, but I see this as a gimmie fight for Rashad. I think Bisping will come in too cocky, especially after his last fight, thinking he'll validate his decision over Hamill with this fight against Rashad.

SAME HERE BUDDO

oh pleeease rashad by ko/ tko. rashad couldn't finish a chocolate pudding. you bisping haters will turn into lovers when he ko's rashad. thickle fans
I actually think if he knocks Rashad out he might become even less popular. I really think there are a lot of people that just want to see him lose.

Is there anyone here from England that isn't going for Bisping? It's like when I go to Buffalo Wildwings and all the black people are only going for the black fighters. People don't seem to care about a fighters abilities anymore, just where they are from, what color their skin is or how they act outside of the cage/ring. Just doesn't make sense to me.
I dont really think that liking a fighter because of his background or out of the ring behavior is all that bad, it allows the fan to associate themselves with the fighter and therefore creates a closer connection (at least in the fans eyes). Although what i do think is stupid is when people feel they HAVE to support a fighter because of where they are from and so on.

just my opinion

Personally speaking, I will have some respect for Bisping if he beats Evans. I think Evans is more talented and obviously more experienced than Hamill, and if Bisping happens to beat him, I'll respect his ability. At this point, however, I have very little respect for Bisping.


Oh, and yeah, I would like to see him lose.

Bisping has no chance. His ground games bad and his striking is overrated! Rashad is a solid fighter so I pick him for the win!

Woot Bisping

2500 on Bisping...

and I'd like to add I think Mike learned his lesson taking someone lightly the way he did Hammil.

Sh*t ANYONE can win we've all seen that.

So, in closing... I say Mike TRAIN THIS TIME A$$HOLE!!!

Take Evans behind the woodshed and beat his a$$ like a redheaded stepchild:bye02:

Easy fight for Rashad. As soon as he catches up with Bisping (who will probably be running the whole time) he will easily gnp him out. Bisping definitely is crapping his pants.
Hey its simple k, Bisping didnt train for that last fight or at least didnt take him as a threat.

The guy is 14 and 0 for a reason, if you actually SAW some of these fights you'd agree. I think he just got too cushy as #1 upincomer...

That wont be the case this time, unless hes retarded and thinks hell WALK RIGHT OVER Rashad.

Rashad has a great Defensive game. He has to get passed that without getting himself into shit.

IF and I say IF Bisping trains hard and takes Evans as a serious threat unlike Hamill, then I say Bisping takes it TKO STRIKES round 2 the LATEST

Is it just me or do people seem to forget Bispings background?

Cage Warriors World Heavyweight Champion
Cage Rage Light Heavyweight Champion
Three-time British super heavyweight kickboxing champion
Silver medal at world jiu jitsu championships.


AND if you remember back to TUF, Tito Ortiz said that Bisping was the only one who nearly managed to submit him during grappling. So I dont know why everyone says that his ground game is rubbish.

His last fight was a bad fight cos he took it lightly. He knows that with Rashad Evans he is going to be attacked from all angles, so he will train his arse off.

Isnt Rashad 15-0 or something? Anyways since its only a 3rnd fight, mostlikely it wll go 2 decision. Evans.
