I'm not a full time MMA watcher, watch most of the big fights but not all. I've always liked Bisping as a personality and admired his desire, but always felt he wasn't quite up to the grade of being elite or top level. For all the talk of his striking background his kicks never seemed fully fluid or technically all there, used to bug me when I'd watch him cos I'd always be rooting for him.
Seemed to be more for racking up points than anything else. His high kick in particular is useless and literally has nothing on it. Not that I can recall it ever landing.... But even if it did it wouldn't faze anyone in the division.
