I tell you who I would have favoured Bisping over though, probably the best fighter I ever would favour him to beat, Gegard. Moose is very inconsistent and whilst he has some great victories over some great grapplers in Weidman and Jacare, he has been out struck on a few occasions both by volume and by accurate crisp shots. Bisping was very consistent and actually you would argue the shot he landed against Rockhold is more of a blip than anything else.
I've tried to explain it to these guys in here but they aren't listening to reason. It was an obvious cheery pick of a title of an incredibly weak current champ in Bisping if I've ever seen one. All that BS before the fight GSP saying "It is in my contract that I must defend the title" all BS. It was all a cynical cheery pick.
If you class the most obvious cherry pick ever as one that involves a 4 year lay off, we must have different definitions of the word.
