    I'd be pretty pissed off if there wasn't, I really didn't give a **** about Bisping. 105 is scheduled for Manchester and I doubt they will change it they will just find a new fight.

    They need to find the Brits a better representative. Bisping is good but not special. They need to find the best kickboxer etc we have to offer. It is going to be hard because we are a boxing country.

    I love how much I've heard Bisping slate boxing but in his fights he looks like a scared boxer having who is new to MMA.

    Considering Bisping was supposed to be a Kickboxer his hands looked absolutely terrible. He was psyched out way before this fight began and knew in his heart he bit off way more than he could chew. As an MMA artist he is distinctly average. Iv always said that. Hendersons annihilation of him confirmed it.

    Why wouldn't they still have the event? He'll be fine to fight by then and they'll give him someone more on his level if they feel good about Hardy and Pearson and Wilkes being able to carry the card or someone like Franklin if they need more star power. They're going to speed things up in the UK now after the last TUF season, not slow them down.

    Is there anyone else the British Isles have to offer right now in MMA?

    I suppose on the bright side, the previous Ultimate Fighter series had two British winners, so there's some young talent that can be put on the card for development for the future.
