Wand, Franklin and Bisping got tagged with precision on the wrong (or right) place when KOed. This weak chin concept is highly overrated on any of them.
All of them have been rocked many times... Its not like there KO losses are isolated incidences Hell Silva made a career out of pulling through really bad moments, he was getting rocked by non strikers right in the center of his prime.
They do not have good chins... they are for the most part good enough to pick up wins with that flaw.
It's hard to say whether Bisping has a weak chin or not. He got KO'd by Dan henderson, but does that really mean anything? The H-Bomb would KO a rhino. Tim Kennedy, who in his previous fight KO'd his opponent with one shot, hit Bisping flush a couple times, and I didn't see him in big trouble after any of them.
Le and Bisping are having blood and urine tests before their fight. Apparently Bisping got scared after seeing the pictures and complained to UFC that there needs to be extra testing.
Also, weak chin arguments are some of the weakest arguments in all of MMA. Nobody has a "strong chin" against a good punch in the right place, nobody.
Also, I wish this fight and Woodley vs Kim were on a proper card, not fightpass.

Bisping's chin isn't terrible. Not strong. I just think his defense sucks at times. When he is getting off first and controlling the pace he is fine. When he gets caught looking like an idiot with his chin up he gets tagged.
As for Bisping's chin, it's weak enough but he's avoided being too hurt throughout his career so he obviously isn't overly held back by it. You could see in the Stann fight that every shot was hurting him.
When I realized that this fight was 5 rounds, after the 3rd, I knew it'd get finished. Solid performance from Bisping, good to see I was wrong.
So much for Le knocking Bisping out if it stayed standing.
Le couldn't handle Bisping's superior jab and got beat up before getting finished. Chung Le's stand up had nothing on Michael Bisping's.
Excellent performance from Bisping.
