Go Bisping, go Bisping

Great win for the count on saturday night.

Didnt see all the fight, but was certainly a war.

Anderson really messed up his face alright.

Always liked Bisping from way back when he was on season 3 of TUF.
Thought he was funny as a coch on the season TJ was on.

Title shot now v Rockhold?

Liked hos post fight interview, seemed very humble.

Would love to see him get the belt.

It was a good win but after the first 2 rounds, which were clear ones for Bisping the next 3 could have been scored either way. Heavier shots from Silva vs work rate from Bisping. Agreed with the scores but had Silva got it I wouldn't have grumbled.

Hasn't Rockhold already beaten Bisping? Apparently Belfort could get the next shot if Rockhold beats Weidman. I'd pick both to beat Bisping, Weidman will just ragdoll him.

It was a really enjoyable scrap. Bisping took a sickening knee at the end of the 3rd, Anderson was playing the fool, pretending he thought the fight was over. Herb Dean too experienced to feel pressured into calling it.
Bisping did amazingly well to come back and (for me) clearly win the 4th, even with the extra recovery time.

Weidmsn fights rock hold again. Either smash bisping imo.

Hopefully the count can beat Rockhold next week.

Going to be tough, but hopefully he can do it.

I hate to say it but he hasn't got a hope in hell.

Rockhold is, I think, the best all-round MMA fighter in the UFC right now.

I'd be surprised if Bisping sees the end of the 3rd to be honest, Rockhold is a better fighter than when he met Bisping last time out and Bisping is coming to the end of his career. Rockhold simply is bigger, stronger & better. Prefer Rockhold to win to be honest as he is always going to be in better fights than Bisping and is more entertaining to watch.

Very amusing press conference indeed.

Bisping cracks me up, bit of character about him.

Rockhold is very dry, strikes me as a boring individual.

Great win for Bisping. Good left to Rockhold, rocking him, actually said yes quite loudly.

Then it was over, just a case of Bisping following up and finishing him.

Don't normally like mouthy fighters like Bisping, but have followed his career since TUF 3.

Really pleased for him. Not a fan of Rockhold and in fairness he did say he came in over confident. Big mistake to make in this game.
Anyone can beat anyone.

Well done Bisping.
Rematch or Weidmann next, think he will want the latter.

Only saw the last round of Cruz Faber.
Was always a big fan of Faber, but gone off a little with the whole TJ moving teams thing. Faber has come off a bit childish.

Then his interview saying Cruz hits hard not as hard as Cody no love whatever he's called.

Think it's done now Cruz Faber.

Time for Uriah to move on.

Great win for bisping. Only a few posts up I said that if he ever got to face rockhold he'd get smashed. Glad to be proved wrong.
I actually really liked rockhold, but in the run up to this fight he seemed to have total disrespect for bisping. I'd imagine he thought he could walk through bisping. He'd done it all before.
Bisping striking has certainly picked up though, it was hard to evaluate the Anderson win, as what's Anderson got left? But that sounds like I'm making excuses. Well done, great performance against the guy who looked pretty much invincible.

Rockhold came across as a complete a55 hole at the post fight conference. No respect for Bisping.

Bisping was rubbing it in a bit, but at least he admits he can be a bit of a d1ck at times.
Least he showed a bit of respect at times.

I don't like Rockhold. Great win Count!!

Henderson part 2 on October 8th. Manchester.
Apparently main event will be around 5am.

Crazy.

Fancy the count to keep the belt.

Can't believe Henderson is getting another title shot tbh.

It's an "easy" fight and a big name to sell the match. Bisping deserves credit for sticking with it. Thought he was deserving of a shot more than Chael Sonnen way back when but them's the breaks and chances are that, at that time, Anderson Silva would have slaughtered him.

really? fancied going this, havent been to a ufc show yet but reckon its one of the better ones so far in britain and its not far from me. but 5am is abit much for me, im sure all the coke heads there will be wired off their brains will stay up no problem but be too much of a struggle for me

Given the huge global interest in such an exciting main event and card stacked full of international athletes, the event is scheduled to start at 11:00 p.m. locally with the main card due to start at approximately 3:00 a.m. to cater for as many fans as possible to watch live.

just took that off the m.e.n website, 3am i can probably handle, but imagine it being fairly rough. anybody else been to a ufc show?

Went to UFC138 in Birmingham in 2011.

Main event was Mark Munez v Chris Leben.
Brad Pickett v Renen Barou.
Don't remember who else was on the card.

Was a good night.
Was'nt late as we went out after.

We were about 15 rows back.
Was enjoyable.

Would like to go to one in London.

It is surprising that he is still in the UFC let alone getting a title shot! Disappointed that Bisping has taken this fight, I think he should have fought Weidman, after all he did replace an injured Weidman who would have got next shot had Rockhold won. Also there is the Brazillian, forgot his name, who looks an exciting fighter that is on a winning streak. Bisping should win this but Henderson still has ko power.

went for tickets, didnt manage to get them. which is surprising given the main event start time, will probably hear of a load of touts selling them
