Did you guys not see his fight with Dan Henderson? Apart from the one slam he got, he wasnt at all impressive and couldnt do any thing to dan on the ground. His stand up is average at best too.
I dont use random training videos to judge a guys skill level either. It was pretty cool though.

Who is calling him the best thing since sliced bread?
What he is is a powerful JJ specialist. No one said he had hands.
Don't hate because your favorite fighter is "the count"...Dracula perfects that nickname, Bisping is a fraud. |

What fights proved this? Riveria, Dan Miller, and Kang are TD artists? Sexyama doesn't even try for them.Maybe Chris Leban? Or we could go back 4 years to Evans and Hamill at the start of their careers. Then each time he is given a decent fighter...lets say any former pride vet ob the downside of his career....he is beaten.
Bisping has solid wrestling for a guy from England. Truth is, he hasn't been tested that much from guys who look to get the fight on the ground.
Not saying Palhares has great TDs, but the thought that Bisping is a good wrestler is pretty much just a guess. |

Although what you say is true, in context I find myself cutting him some slack. It was 2.5 years ago now. Second UFC fight. First on the main card. And against Hendo of all people.
Besides, I wish my first name was Rousimar. Thats some bad ass sword welding, dragon slaying, exotic womanising hero shit right there. He had me soon as I read it. |

Best fan-given nickname ever imo. I remember when Chileandude had his CD love/hate station and used "Paul Harris" instead and people were probably checking wiki for a new UFC fighter, haha.

Ah yes. Definitely the best fan given nickname.
The first time I saw it was when the great Damone made a thread declaring him Paul Harris.

Bisping has good TDD defence Hamil and Evans didnt have it all way , Paul Harris can take him down , but Bisping makes it hard by being on his toes and staying on the outside.

??????????
Everyone in this thread maybe?
Bisping isnt my favourite fighter, he isnt't even my favourite British fighter, what has he even got to do with this thread?! Stop trying to provoke and start arguments for no apparent reason. |

Yeah right! And pigs fly...
Forget your love for Bisping.
He has a small advantage on the feet, but on the ground he is zero compared to Palhares. The best grappler Bisping has faced is Dan Miller. He doesn't stand a chance on the ground against Palhares. And i am not saying this with "i think".
I know this!
I already expressed my desire to see this fight happen!
I am conviced Palhares submits Bisping!
Easily!
