    a fight that fans will likely eat up like delicious chicken.

    This is a much better match up and will drawl a bigger audience imo. Good move on White’s part. Should be a fun fight to watch.

    So, what happens to Maia then ?

  • Anonymous

    Guess he’s either going to have a new opponent or get booked for another UFC event altogether here.

    I should’ve went to Twitter, before asking stupid questions. ^^

    bisping for the win

  • Stephen Wadelin

    Chael Sonnen is going to make Bisping look like a joke.
    Chael Sonnen is the best wrestler in the division, and if Bisping can’t defend against Miller’s takedowns there is no way he is going to defeat Chael’s.

    Chael takes this by decision.

  • Mr_GoodCat

    bisping smashed miller , you blind?

  • Stephen Wadelin

     Are you blind? You obviously didn’t read my comment.
    I said Bisping can’t defend against TAKEDOWNS, idiot.

    I’m pretty sure miller did nothing when he took bisping down and he still was able get up anyways and the best wrestler in the division got subbed from the bottom so anything is possible. Michael Bisping by UD or TKO

  • G-Money

    Did you honestly just say Bisping by a possible TKO!?  Do you even watching the UFC, or any type of MMA for that matter?  Bisping is a good fighter, don’t get me wrong.  Sonnen is a great fighter.  There is a big difference between good and great.  Sonnen has it all; striking, wrestling, and he can submit you.  He was simply destroying Anderson Silva.  He knocked Silva’s D**k in the dirt for 5 rounds.  Granted he got caught in a triangle.  Shit happens.  He fixed the problem and submitted Stan in the second round.  It wasn’t even a contest.  If you honestly think Bisping might win by TKO, you are high as a kite buddy.
