For those who downplay Bispings talents (Particularly americans)

November 6, 2009

Comparing 'The Count' to one of your more promising prospects

Every time Michael Bisping is mentioned on this site, or any other MMA site for that matter it is always followed by a barrage of insults and derogatory comments about how arrogant he is (Fair enough) how he has no chin (Hendo has set doubts) and how he is talentless and is unworthy of being considered at the top of the UFC's middleweight division (Now hold on a minute).

To say Bisping is a cocky, arrogant d-bag is a fair comment as during filming for TUF 9 and the build up to UFC 100 he set himself up for a big, big fall by insulting Hendo and downplaying 'Hollywood's' abilities. However to say that he isn't a good fighter is stupid. The thing that makes me laugh is that it is most likely 95% of the time Americans who say this about Bisping but will then go on to rave about how much of a great prospect Ryan Bader is since he won TUF 8 (Amid a poor LHW cast featuring undersized fighters and some who weren't really MMA fighters, Vinny).

But look at Bader's last fight against Eric Schafer. 'Darth' Bader bored his way to another decision but still people consider him to be fantastic. However look back a few years to when Bisping won TUF 3. His first fight off the show was against none other than Red Schafer and what happened in that fight? Bisping beat the crap out of Schafer and stopped him in the 1st round!

So next time you think to say Bisping has no skills think about how you feel about Bader. And if you've been impressed with him thus far, remember at that point of his career Bisping was alot better.

    honestly bisping isnt that good he lost to rashad and i will admit rashad lost that fight but the thing that made me hate bisping was when he insulted matt hamill and then said that he won the fight even though we all know hamill won that one. bisping cant really impress me since he lost to rashad he fought reallly low leveled guys like Leben and Day and Mcarthy the one time he fought someone good was against red shaefer and ill admit that was good but other than that i havent seen a breakthrough performance on bisping but he can beat kang and get back on track

    Whoa, whoever said Ryan Bader is good. He is like a mini me version of Mark Coleman. One trick pony's are fun to watch. But after you've seen the same trick over and over again, no one is gonna pay to see it.

    I understand what u are trying to say.. I dont got any time for Bisping. And as u said a cocky, arrogant d-bag lol... With that said he is a good fighter and should be in the ufc.. I just think he was kind of a poster boy for GB. Not that thats a bad thing i just think he was hyped up abit to much.. Again this is just IMO....
