Bahaha oh bisping discredits all the top contenders and his first 2 title defenses are henderson and gsp. After this fight hell retire and say how he could've beat any of them and just constantly talk smack knowing he'll never have to back it up
Makes total sense. All signs point to GSP really coming back. Bisping wants his big money fight. GSP probably believes he has an advantage over Mike everywhere (and if going for gold, would probably prefer to face him than T-Wood).
Go ahead and take my money UFC. I'd be really excited for this one if it happens.
Miguel cro cop -EckY - Bisping said himself, he is going to fight Romero next unless GSP comes back then he will take that fight first for the payday. Cant blame him.This! Fans scream for the fighters to be paid better yet complain when a champion just wants to make what he deserves.
You also have to think about the contenders - they'll never get a chance to get paid if they keep getting pushed aside.
I would rather see this fight happen as a non title bout at a catchweight of 180.
Stu Cazzo -I agree the contenders should be usually getting paid but if anyone has a chance at a big pay day they should take that instead, if Romero was champ and had the choice out of Bisping or GSP we know he'd take that pay day.Miguel cro cop -EckY - Bisping said himself, he is going to fight Romero next unless GSP comes back then he will take that fight first for the payday.

ausgepicht -42091120969 -ausgepicht - At what point does Bisping plan on fighting a top ten fighter in his weight class and in their prime?
He's on "Defend my title against retirees, those past their prime, or not in the top ten" tour.
What a quality champion!Bisping has fought everyone to get there already, Romero is a roid cheat, and Rockhold is awol. Jacare is a deserving contender and should get it next 100%, but imo he's the only one bisping needs to fight.
Did you just defend a champion who refuses to defend his title against top ten opponents?

When did Bisping "refuse" to fight a top contender? Seems like he was offered good fights, and he took them. I haven't heard of him turning down anybody. Care to educate me? Who did Bisping "refuse" to fight?
He'd be an idiot not to take the GSP and Hendo fights when they were offered, if you want to be mad at somebody for giving undeserving title shots be mad at the UFC, they're the ones who write the contracts.

yep. in a way, it's exactly the kind of title run that is appropriate for someone like bisping
I'm going to throw up.
The MW division has Yoel, Jacare, Mousasi, Rockhold who are all capable of becoming world champion. UFC is making a huge mistake.

This.
Stacked division, you cant be playing around in the MW division IMO.
Yoel - scary af
Jacare - scary af
Rockhold - scary af
Wiedman - scary af
We should be having top middleweight matches on every big card this year. Crazy division. Yoel will dethrone him and GSP will be cool on all that.
Lol they will probably do Bisping vs GSP for the title, and make Yoel and Jacare rematch and eliminate one of them. Then Mousasi/Weidman fights Yoel/Jacare winner, eliminates another contender, and Anderson gets the next title shot.

Lol way to botch your own worn out joke. And yes, I did. 185 is almost as thin as 205, let Bisping chase the $$$ and tell the roiders he's had to fight his whole career to fuck off.

Apparently their irony detector is broken.
Stu Cazzo -Michael Bisping says he’s “probably” going to face Yoel Romero next, but the UFC middleweight champion made it clear that earlier reports of the bout aren’t true. He says nothing has been offered or signed, and even states that a bout with Georges St-Pierreisn’t out of the question at this point.
According to Bisping, the former welterweight champion has mended fences with the UFC, and GSP could have that long talked about return soon.
“I haven’t signed to fight anybody,” Bisping said on the MMA Hour. “Odds are it’s going to be Yoel Romero, my next fight. That’s what I’m assuming.
“I’ve had no further dialogue with the UFC, but I know that Georges, his trainer (Jorge Blanco) told me recently that they’re pretty much at an agreement with the UFC. So the deal is almost done and he wants to fight me. I am the fight that they’re targeting, so it’s not beyond the realm of possibility. As of right now, I would assume that Yoel is my next opponent, but there’s always that wild card.”
With the good number of contenders at middleweight, most notably Romero and Jacare, Bisping knows that even talking about a possible super-fight with St-Pierre will get him criticism.
“I have no problem facing (Romero), but if the UFC would come to me with the GSP (offer), of course I would take that one first, simply for the gigantic payday, then do Yoel next.
“GSP is saying that he wants to fight me. GSP is by far the biggest fight of them all,” he said. “Regardless of whoever I fight, there’s going to be somebody unhappy. I can’t face them all on the same night. It’s got to be one at a time, and there’s going to be people who are going to talk sh-t.”
As much as I sometimes don't like Bisping at least he is being dead honest with this quote. No bullshit and to be honest I would probably grab a big money fight against GSP too. His return done in Canada would do massive numbers. But at least he is being truthful about Yoel should be next.
Gay jesus will not be happy
