Re: DR's Official MMA Thread Pt. 2
Michael Bisping Tells GSP: 'Sign the Papers Buddy' Oct 21, 2016 Jim Edwards UFC 206 may be looking a little light on paper right now, but a surprising title fight could be in the works that involves the UFC middleweight champion, Michael Bisping. Speaking earlier Friday at the launch of a UFC gym in Dubai, the current UFC middleweight champion confirmed that he'd had dialogue with UFC president Dana White via text message regarding his next fight. "Dana White was texting me while I was in the air, so I had some very interesting news regarding my next fight," Bisping told Sport360. Bisping is just two weeks departed from his first title defense against Dan Henderson back at UFC 204 in Manchester, England. Despite coming out that fight with a significant amount of facial damage having suffered two knockdowns, the Brit says he's fine, well, and ready to go. "I had a CT scan after the fight, and I'm all good," Bisping said. "There's some misinformation going around. I don't know where they're all getting it, but they are incorrect. I'm good...I'm healthy. "My leg is a little bruised, but a bit of ice and a few more days, and I'll be good to go." Earlier this week, former UFC welterweight king Georges St-Pierre announced that he was no longer in the mix for UFC 206, having come into a contract dispute with the UFC over sponsorship. Before that, it had been speculated that one possible opponent could've been Bisping, though the 185-pound champion stated just a few weeks ago that St-Pierre was pricing himself out the fight by asking for a $10 million dollar base pay. When asked what he thought about the St-Pierre situation, Bisping's response was blunt. He wasted little time laying down the gauntlet again to the Canadian. "Honestly, I don't know anything about the situation," Bisping said. "Georges talked about fighting me a while ago and I'd love to fight the guy. It'd be terrific for me business-wise, and I also think I'd beat the guy. "Of course, it's a good fight for me, so it's down to him. I'm here if you want to fight, Georges. Let's go. Sign the papers, buddy. That's all you've got to do." Speaking about the possibility of a fight with St-Pierre, Bisping was adamant he knew what the Canadian's game plan would be and how he would beat him. "If I fight GSP, we all know how it goes down: He's going to shoot from the other side of the Octagon for his dear life," Bisping said. "He's going to try and take me down, and it's going to be the most boring match ever. "No doubt, he will probably get a takedown here or there because that's all he does. I will continue to get back to my feet each and every time and punch him in his face until he falls over or until the fight ends. I will be the winner, I will be victorious, and I will beat Georges St-Pierre."  |

Re: DR's Official MMA Thread Pt. 2
Micheal Bisping Vs. Nick Diaz @206. Stylistically this fight would be fucking epic. The true lineal light heavyweight champion is Bones Jones. I have no interest in paying $300+ to watch Daniel Cormier best Anthony Johnson again for a paper championship. |

He was a big welterweight, expert at cutting weight, he's not a middleweight, he'll get a hiding.

Re: DR's Official MMA Thread Pt. 2
Dont talk about the p4p like that. GSP is an average sized welterweight. Your boy, Dan Hardy was considered to be a big WW and we all know how that ended. He could have broken his arm with that Kimura and you know it. |
