Good set of fights anyone watch them? I was impressed with Bisping he seem's to be ever improving. I was just wondering were he should be placed in the division? I think he should be side by side with Munoz. He is coming of four good wins and definitely at the top of the division with Munoz. If Anderson wasn't hurt it should be Silva vs Sonnen then Munoz vs Bisping for no.1 contender in my opinion. Right now i think he should be one fight away from that shot but who does he fight?
I'm not sold on Bisping as a title contender but I was impressed with how he adjusted after the 1st round and dismantled Mayhem
Both were gassed out Bisping not quite a much,they couldn't of taken their own training seriously when all their students are so much fitter.Quote:

A great card all around I thought. That little Brazillian kid is great to watch, and his lightening fast transition into an arm bar after getting dropped was superb.
Nobody can seriously maintain any longer than mixed martial arts doesn't have the same skill level as boxing imo, these guys are just phenomenal. I would love to have that kind of arsenal. Great show.
I agree and its a different skill level. They have more to think about, more ranges to be attacked on too and thats just the hitting part. Front kick,knee,elbow fist are all different ranges so the reaction is honed to just prior to each range. Boxing only has the fist at its own ranges.Quote:

Id love to see someone be able to block a fist,move in, fold the elbow down and lock their arm while still standing, and then use that to take them down. Wont be long.
In my opinion, that idea never had substance in first instance, they need to know and to master way too many things, it's just insane. i even wonder how most of them are making a living as they must pay many coaches and as their wage are WAYYYY smaller than in boxing.Quote:

It was a good card overall. Monkey Boy Dodson and his fucking monkey cackle ran wild on TJ Dillashaw's arrogant big nosed self. Don't really like either of them much, but Dodson is like the missing link between man and ape and very agile, fast, and powerful.
Diego destroyed, though I wanted the other fella to win and it looked like he might for a while.
Mayhem Miller was just outweighed and outclassed. Bisping has some good boxing skills I think, and looked spectacular against Miller.
I think Silva and Sonnen would smoke him, maybe Belfort as well. We'll see how Belfort does against Munoz.
Hey gaylord, are you going to refriend me on facebook or what? Hurting my feelings man. :confused::-\:mad:Quote:

If you think ground and pound is boring you need to find a new sport.Quote:

Bisping is fighting Damien Mia on the UFC on Fox 2 card. Step back for Bisping in my opinion.
Ha :biteit:Quote:

Just find Sonnens style somewhat predictable and boring. Others do it with more flair.
