He would be the only person to have beaten both Silva and GSP, he has the belt, multi season TUF coach… I think there’s a legit case to be made.
I dont think so, even tho he has a win over anderson, silva messed him up…bisping just had good dec whenever he fights at home.
Also GSP is probly not the same dominant fighter he once was and also has never fought at MW.
Last, i dont think being a tuf coach means anything tbh lol
Ummmm… no.
Top 10 . Almost only beaten by roiders . Like him.or not he’s consistently been top5 185 since he dropped.
Plus fighting with one eye for years is pretty impressive.
I'd say top 10 also
Yes, comfortably.
Those 7 losses on his record say no

One of the main reasons I don’t consider fedor emelianenko the GOAT is because he’s never coached TUF

Plus, he went on to get a totally undeserved gift split decision against the deaf kid on that show when they fought - IN ENGLAND, of course.
Just like he got a gift decision over Hendo - IN ENGLAND, despite Dan almost killing him again and basically 90% of fighters saying they thought Hendo won again.
Kimbo K -Silva lost 8 times and has been finished the same amount of times by lesser competition.Those 7 losses on his record say no
He has a strong argument. The 185 and 170 GOATs are Silva and GSP, and a victory over both makes it arguable.
As far as dodgy decisions, I Bisping winning vs Silva and Hendo, but losing to Hamill.
It’s hard to shake my image of him being a pillowfisted jog’n’jabber point fighter.
if he beat the goats in their primes it would be noteworthy
Top 1 GOAT

Go watch his last fight, should be enough

And by last fight... I meant the Rockhold one :)
BuyTheTicketTakeTheRide -If we're going to cherry pick, we can come up with several score of GOATs more notable than Bisping.frederic - It's hard to shake my image of him being a pillowfisted jog'n'jabber point fighter.Go watch his last fight, should be enough
Doesn’t he have the most wins in ufc history? If so, that helps his argument for being top 3.
Bay Area -Tied for 3rd with 3 others. Has been a solid gatekeeper for years before he finally won the belt.Doesn’t he have the most wins in ufc history? If so, that helps his argument for being top 3.
i don't think he really won that silva fight. really a odd fight with the finish /not finish. even still i think the judges gave it with bisping when they shouldn't have. even at this age i think anderson beats him 9 out of 10 times
