hahaha Greg.. I was gonna spell check it on the UFC site but my danged work puter wont let me into the UFC.. Grrrr... dont leave me hanging bud, help a brother out!
I had no idea what you were talking about, Troy... but now that you've called attention to it, it looks like you've mispelled his name in your thread title... I think it's "Bisping", not "Bisbing". I was sincere with my post... I don't like him either. :D
i like that they put a few of the fights on for free every now and then! now i gotta just keep my eyes from closing until the main event....
I can't stand leben. He was a joke on the ultimate fighter and has done well since but needs to be cut back down to size.
Raceway, fair enough, and Bisbing should win, if Leben does win, its a big upset. As far as Leben goes I guess I have a soft spot for the kids that come from the street really no family life or support from what I have read about him, battled a few demons and seems to be putting his best foot forward these days even if he's not perfect.
You guys should see the pics on lebens myspace page of his training camp. He looks to be in better shape than I've ever seen him, you can actually see his abs. I suspect we will see him come out very carefully in the first like he did with terry martin. I bet in the second he will open up though. This is going to be a better fight than a lot of people are giving credit. I honestly don't think bisping has the power to end it by ko or tko, if he wins it will be a decision.
While I would pic neither in a fight with anyone else... Im going to have to go with Bisping. Leben dont have a chance.lol Actually, I'm looking foward to seeing it. Should be a very entertaining fight.
Here are the Sherdog Stats on the two Name Michael Bisping Nick Name The Count Record 16 - 1 - 0 (Win - Loss - Draw) Wins 11 (T)KOs ( 68.75 %) 4 Submissions ( 25 %) 1 Decisions ( 6.25 %) Losses 1 Decisions ( 100 %) Association Wolfslair Academy Height 6\'2 (188cm) Weight 204lbs (93kg) Birth Date 1979-02-28 City Liverpool Country England Name Chris Leben Record 18 - 4 - 0 (Win - Loss - Draw) Wins 10 (T)KOs ( 55.56 %) 4 Submissions ( 22.22 %) 4 Decisions ( 22.22 %) Losses 1 (T)KOs ( 25 %) 1 Submissions ( 25 %) 2 Decisions ( 50 %) Association Team Quest Height 5'11 (181cm) Weight 185lbs (84kg) Birth Date 1980-07-21 City Portland Country USA Bisping is dropping weight from what it appears and he also has a track record of better discipline. Bisping should also have a reach advantage on Leben. Leben is also traveling for the fight which leaves the jet lag effect in play. If I was betting I'd look to the Count on this one for sure. Anything can happen in MMA but Leben will likely end up at a pub drunk the night before and hung over
LMAO Greg, I must have been one tired S.O.B. when I first read your post the other day; I for whatever reason read it and thought it said couldnt "spell" instead of "Stand!" So I type in bis "bing" instead of ping in google and sure enough it comes up that way too..so I change it to BING instead of ping which I had right in the first place.. FUG ME! LMAO Sorry.. Anyway, sorry about all that nonsense of mine.. Oh and yeah, I can't "stand" the guy either
I just get done saying I can't stand the guy and Bisping makes a different impression on me the other night after the fight, I thought he was pretty cool after the fight in his post fight interview so my props and congrats go to him. I was impressed with his assessment of were he his is right now in regards for fighting Anderson...He definately outscored Leban. Leban looked like he was in the best shape I have ever seen him, solid chin but couldnt match Bispings speed.
Bisping is a pretty regular guy fighting for his family. I have always liked him even though he lacks flash and is a Brit
Was a ok fight, Leben was in the best shape I have saw him in. Bisping rubs alot of people the wrong way he is a good fighter but lacks Ko power. The good think is hopefully he will face one or two more guys and gets a shot. I don't know who would even be a good match next maybe pahles that brazilian who has had a few fights or Ed herman. Right now I am excited to see Silva this weekend against Cote.
Ok did Bisping or Lebon win??? I got tired and went to bed before that one been hunting to hard i guess :d
