I have always liked Leben. And have always hated Bisping. So I hope Leben hits him so hard that he is knocked up and out of the ring like on the old boxing game “Ring King”. Plus I want to see lots of foot-stomps.

Nothing Anderson Silva (the best striker in MMA) did to Leben can really compare to what Bisping is capable of. Bisping doesn’t hit that hard or have half the tool kit that Silva has. But he’s a very cagey fighter who comes in great shape and fights smart. However, he did get tagged more than once by Hamill, who’s not exactly noted for his striking ability. I think Bisping is wily enough to avoid getting KO’d by Leben, therefore he will win by staying busy and having more gas in the tank.

I am curious to see if he could take Leben’s best shot, though. If Bisping wins this, he should fight Nate Quarry. I’m of the opinion that the Count needs to be brought along slowly. The top 5 in the division (AS, Hendo, Franklin, Marquardt, Okami) would fairly wreck him right now.

Who wouldnt want to stand up with Leben?? Anyone with some striking skill will have a wide open target rushing in. Silva exposed Leben as a plodding, slow puncher. Yeah he has power, but he throws wide, and is a catcher.. Bisping will just take a half step back and drop a few straight shots and Leben will be sucking canvas….. Again……..

Bic:

I think DirtyML was referring to upbringing and life in general, outside the cage, which makes the statement even more ludicrous.

That means Evan Tanner will f-@king destroy everyone in his path.

That means Jon Fitch’s chance of being champion is stuffed.

That means Diego Sanchez should just give up.

That means, unless you’ve got an alcoholic dad that has cheated on your mum, who unfortunately passed away due to an overdose because her husband was cheating, you’ll never be champion.

What a crock and what a ludicrous statement.

Champions are mentally strong end of. Thats their own psychology, they don’t have to go through pain in life to be mentally strong.

JV you’re a gent, I would have kept it for however long. A bet is a bet .

Pointon was more like knocking him off balance, thats how I saw that one and it was Elvis’ knee that rocked him which we all know that knees rock anybody.

As I said above, Bisping is not going to test the integrity of his chin with Leben. Bisping will kick and jab at distance

Bisping doesn’t want to stand in front of Leben if he does it will be a short fight.

Sanchez v Diaz is one of the best examples of good ground fighter that I can think of. The rolled around like a couple of rabid squirrels. It was great.

i would much rather see the winner of this fight take on Franklin or Hendo.
