Bisping on Wanderlei - "more explosive Leben"

Will the Count beat Wand with a similar strategy to his Leben fight?

Quote:
Stylistically, the fight may be similar to the one I had with Chris Leben in October 2008. Leben was a tough, aggressive guy with some highlight reel knockouts on his record and he really brought the fight to me. He also throws similarly wild and looping punches to Wanderlei. I had to use my speed and straighter punches to beat Leben and the same thing may come into play with Wanderlei. I’d say Wanderlei is a bit quicker and more explosive than Leben overall.

Obviously the game plans won’t be the same, but in terms of style there are definite similarities between the two of them. I’m not going to fight Wanderlei the way I did Leben, but I may draw on my fight with Leben to help me beat Wanderlei.

Bisbing is such a tool... I hope Wand stomps his skull old school Wand style, flips off the NSAC and Dana White and takes off for japan

So does this mean that Bisping will run even more from Wand than he did from Leben?

Why is everyone angry about this? It's a realistic assessment.

I don't believe him. I think he is going to start off with a few jabs and then start going for relentless takedowns. Bisping is not dumb, he isn't knocking out Wanderlei (Possible but highly unlikely), he is working his ass off on his takedowns and GnP skills.

All Wanderlei needs to do is connect once and Bisping is going to get rocked or KO'ed and Bisping must surely know this. I got Michael Bisping by UD.

Bisping ain't never been locked up in a clinch of Wanderlei's quality, that's for sure.
