    I feel bad for Bisping :)

    - lowkick.com
    With today's news from UFC's UK representative Marshall Zelaznik confirming that UFC 120 will take place in London, it seems a headline could be close to being announced.

    MMabay.co.uk are citing "an exclusive source" as being behind stories of a headlining Middleweight match up between Michael Bisping and Vitor Belfort. It was originally believed Bisping would fight the winner of Wanderlei and Akiyama, but with Wanderlei out of the picture due to injury and Akiyama losing to Chris Leben these bouts aren't really viable. MMabay.co.uk also went on to state that one of the fighters had signed the agreement for the bout.

    Bisping's last bout saw him win a decision over Dan Miller at UFC 114, while beofre this the Brit lost a unanimous decision to PRIDE superstar Wanderlei Silva at UFC 110. His record is currently 19-3. A win over a high calibre opponent such as Belfort would catapult him straight inot Middleweight title contention.

    Belfort was last seen in action last September, knocking out Rich Franklin in a catchweight bout. Both a veteran of PRIDE and UFC, the Brazillian was set to be the next challenger for Anderson Silva's Middleweight belt, but an injury put a stop to this. His record currently stands at 19-8. He is a former Cage Rage, a former UFC Lightheavyweight champion, and at just 19, a winner of the UFC 12 tournament.

    On the card, Dan Hardy is expected to face either Martin Kampmann or Carlos Condit, and John Hathaway is likely to meet Don Hyun Kim.

    On another note. Look at how skinny Belforts lower leg looks compared to his upper leg...

    Vitor is going to beat the utter **** out of Bisping. He is on a totally different level than anybody he has faced bar Dan Henderson, (Wandy is past prime), and we all know what happened there.

    I'm not a fan of Bisping so I'm happy with this :D

    Hardy Vs Condit or Kampmann would be a nice fight, i hope its Condit though. Looking forward to seeing if Hataway can build on that last performance.

    The only thing Michael "The Count" Bisping is gonna be counting is the teeth he doesn't have anymore if he gets in the cage with Vitor.

    I'm going to this, STILL wouldn't surprise me to see Akiyama or Leben square off with Bisping.

    The main reason we're going is to see Liverpool's Paul Sass in his first outing for the UFC. Definitely one to watch for the future.
