    Im down with it, not a bad main event for a free card. Wandy to me looked competitive vs Rich he showed he can still fight but what worried me was how bad his cardio looked. Wanderlei got tired and never really seemed to recover like he used to and im sure the weight cut bothered him. It was the 1st cut of his career I believe so maybe he will be better off next time but then agian its an extra 10 pounds. If Wandy is healthy im certain he knocks Bisping unconcious Wanderlei is more like Henderson then he is like Leben as where he knows how to cut off the ring better. Wanderlei loves that overhand right like Dan does and it will land Bisping never appears to be confident in there with a heavy handed guy. If Wanderlei has weight cutting issues then I do expect Bisping to just outpoint a very tired Silva.

    The UFC must be preparing for a Bisping dismissal. I'll probably be willing to do an avatar bet when this comes around. I believe the current version of Wanderlei will be enough to annihilate Bisping.

    Henderson hits hard, and is currently better than W. Silva in my opinion, but Henderson is not a top notch striker. Silva will not patiently stalk Bisping, looking to land one punch.

    Poor Bisping must've pissed Dana off or something...

    If Bisping spends the whole fight circling left again... he deserves to be let go on the basis of pure stupidity.

    BTW I hope they give Hardy a top guy for the co main event someone like Jon Fitch that would be awesome.

    I heard on some ESPN MMA podcast that it might be Matt Serra, which does not excite me.

    Hell, I'd settle for a Hardy-Davis rematch over that.

    I'm skeptical that Silva will be able to make 185 without cutting off a foot.

    As for the rest, it depends on who they match up the rest of the brits with. It'll be a free card, so either way, I'll watch it.

    :roll:
    Why ? Serra is a former Champ and extremly competitive hes probablly better on the ground then Hardy and is a threat to KO anyone. Sure his Championship win was rather fluky but hes really good he nearly KOed Karo,fought BJ very close and got robbed vs Hughes.

    Bisping will immediately shoot and take his chances on the ground. I can't see him wanting to stand toe-to-toe with even a washed up, physically drained Silva. Bisping could surprise us and pull out a UD with a smart game plan, but I'd much rather watch his head get punched into the first row again. War Silva.

    Everyone seems to be counting bisping out the feet here.

    I think he has a good chance to deal with wanderlei's looping punches.

    Basicaly the same way rich did

    Wand will win with a KO due to bisping making a fatal mistake such as circling toward the power hand :(

    Bisping will be gunshy as **** against Wandy. He'll be scared that another 'Hendo' moment is on it's way.:yep
