    Bisping was losing to drug cheats. If not for performance enhancing drugs Bisping would of been champ long ago.

    Wanderie Silva busted
    Chael Sonnen busted
    Vitor Belfort busted
    etc,etc almost all of his losses were to ped users.

    With an equal playing field and finally proper drug testing Michael emerges as the champion.

    Rockhold with the "imma step in hard with a jab then turn my back and look into the crowd" boxing skills. What a way to go. :patsch

    Silva dominated an extremely weak division.

    You flatter me - dictator would be more up my alley.

    I favour Bisping based on non-camp stats now even though he is a douche. Rockhold proved he has no grit and no chin - Bisping is not exactly cast iron but at least he has grit.

    Yeah bro. The division was so weak that a giy who couldn't even get a title shot despite being in countless #1 contender matches while Anderson was champion now holds the belt.

    Bisping only fought in 2 n.1 contender matches, and he beat Silva in their only encounter. The MW division is Silva's time was weak, no getting around it. He wouldn't have reigned long if at all in today's division.

    That's why the sporting markets already have Bisping a big underdog in a rematch
