Mike Bisping's future in the UFC

Hey just got a few questions about bisping and want some responses from fellow sherdoggers.Does everyone think Bisping will do good at 205 in the ufc? I honestly believe that he can get passed sinosic and some of the other guys, but don't think he can hang with guys like chuck, rampage, tito, forrest, jardine,rashad, machida, babalu(despite his lambert loss, i think bisping would do better against lambert), now shogun coming in, poss wandy, maybe overeem, and even guys like gouveia which are damn good i think would beat bisping...obviously bisping has good striking, but is it as good as chucks, pages, , shoguns, wandy, overeem, gouveia etc....no.. i dont doubt bisping has good submissions, but are they as good as babalus, chute box, gouveia, jardines...i dont think so theyre black belts
..does anyone know what belt bisping is in jiu jitsu?and as far as wrestling this is where bisping lacks a lot of talent.. so i think guys like tito, babalu,page, rashad chuck, n pretty much 90% of 205'ers could take him down at will.
another point is i know on sherdog it has him listed at 6'2, but that is far off...tito is 6'2tops and u can tell on tuf that bisping is 5'11 tops imo.. can anyone clerify that? I know he cant even be 6'...His reach is only 70.5 inches and that is not even good for a MW.... Now bisping isn't the most cut guy either, that doesn't matter in fighting, but with dropping weight it does...so another question is can bisping make 185?...I really can't see him even walking around at 210 from watching his fights or on tuf...So does anyone know what he walks around at? I personally think he can make 185, but want to know what everyone else thinks or knows from first hand knowledge...I think bisping will find out 185 is where he needs to be once he faces one of the guys from up above
discuss

discuss

edit- suprised tuf stated 70.5(thought that was a reliable source) also very suprised hes walking around at 218..but mike says he could make 185...point being at 185 bisping contender within a year possible champ...bisping vs swick would be sick...bisping vs franklin would be sick

just to clear up also if u think i was talkin smack

bisping vs haynes..anyone got clip or vid

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

hey just seeing if anyone has a hl, clip, or video of bisping vs haynes for the finale...it was on all day today and i recorded it while i was out, but it stops recording right after grove vs herman....i wanna watch the ass beating again...if anyone has it can you post a link or a vid in this post...i personally think bisping will do pretty good at 205(chuck,page, jardine, tito(on the ground), machida will give him problems and the new pride fighters, but at 185 i see him in the near future and think that he would ko swick, leben, and have a damn good chance with franklin...then title shot baby
thanks

bisping vs haynes..anyone got clip or vid

Don't forget that special strike you've been working on. We're counting on you to light Elvis up with it and send him flying like a firework haha.

While I agree that some of the people you named may be better strikers, some are better wrestlers, and some have better JJ, I think that Bisping is well rounded and can hold his own. I think that other than Chuck and Page, he'd be a good matchup for any of teh other names that you mentioned.

WAR BISPING!!

I think this man right here has the potential to be a top 205 fighter...just gotta take it one fight at a time. Look how quickly Rashad has improved. All it takes is hard work and dedication..

I cant wait to see some of these potential matches at 205...lots of new up and comers and a pretty clear cut top tier...

Liddell could possibly be the most dominant 205er ever...but he's is getting up there in age...once his reign is over there is going to be a hell of a war to see whos at the top.

Heh original poster owned by actual fighter.
My only complaint is that the UFC is sheltering Bisping too much. He believes he has the skills, a lot of fans believe he has the skills, why are we presented with the lackluster matchup of Bisping vs Sinosic then?

I realize this is MMA but Sinosic just isn't in the same league as the majority of fighters at 205 at the moment.

They should have put Bisping against someone a little more interesting at UFC70.
