    I think Bisping is as overrated as anybody right now. Hes just a product the UFC tried to push to represent the UK.

    However, he did not get killed in that Henderson fight. He got rattled in the 1st round but settled in nicely and was actually outpointing Henderson until the KO.

    Obviously neither of these guys are good strikers, Henderson is terrible but has good power as shown against Bisping but for the duration of the fight he was just throwing that right hand hoping it connected, technically he looked terrible and was embarassing to watch.

    Bisping just should not be in there with high calibre opponents.

    Even before Bisping got KO's by Hendo I thought he had a bad chin. Maybe not glass but pretty close in my opinion.

    He just seems to get rattled too much by non-punchers.

    Also because he won the Ultimate Fighter. Dana White is hell bent on pushing TUF winners and giving them every opportunity to succeed.

    lol i was one of those 2 guys

    but i only suggested that maybe it had been a bad night

    it was a brutal KO - on par with Mannys



    but i wont write Bisping off so quickly

    Sivas contract is nearing its end, Henderson is already 38


    Bisping will learn from this

    and come back as a major player

    lol i usually never agree with you but that is spot on what you said. British fighters have the worst chins. British fighters may be good in their country, but when they go to america THEY GET THEIR ASSES BEAT BADLY!

    It seemed to me that Bisping when ever he got tagged, it was more shock than pain (Hendo aside hehe). Im not sayin that there hasnt been occasions when he's be hurt, but its like when he does take a decent shot, he always has that look of 'How the hell did he hit me, Im Mike Bisping'. I hope that Hendo finally ko'd his over inflated ego, or as someone else put it his bully bravado.

    I guess you havent watched the Jones/Hopkins v Calzaghe fight. Or the Tyson v Lewis fight, or the Lewis v Holyfield fight, or the Benn v McClellan fight, need I go on?
    And I know you probably got examples of Brits losing to Yanks, but we punch above our weight when you consider the size difference

    man had heard so much about Bisping before the fight and had never seen him fight before , being a brit was looking forward to seeing him in action , man what a letdown theman looked scared to trade and was back footing it the whole fight and ouch what a vicious elbow on top of bisping's face when he was clearly allready sparked out.

    Right now The **** Bisping is looking at this same MMA Math Equation with a dumb ****ing look on his face, countin on his had, trying to figure out what happened :lol:

    Bisping is such a ****! I am still smiling Hendo shut him the **** up, I hope we never have to hear about him again.
