Michael Bisping: "Anderson Silva is the greatest. I want to challenge myself against the best."

Trollsmasher

I want to take Bisping seriously as a contender to Silva or any of the top ranked middleweights, but every time I try to make a case for him, I keep seeing in my mind how easily Wanderlei Silva dominated him, and dropped him in their fight.

Anybody giving Bisping a chance against Silva if he fights him?

you better care about belfort.

KOOKORK

In OP you mentioned once Anderson Silva and once Wanderlei Silva. Anyway in my mind no chance for Bisping against any silva.!!!

Well, if Bisping gets the title shot.... Its gonna be entertaining to see more of Silva's absurd standup skills again.

Maybe Bisping can surprise us and land some good shots. But he's likely getting KO'd in the 2nd

ultimatefightingchamp

Silva wins 99 times out of 100, Bisping has the same chance to beat Anderson as Shogun does against Jones

Bisping has a chance against Belfort and to be honest I want to see him win so he fights Silva because then he and others will shut up about him getting a title shot. But against Silva, he will NEVER Win.

you must of watched a different fight to me because i didn't see Wand dominating that fight at all, he put on two 20 second bursts which won him the rounds, most agree its a fight that could of gone either way.

You contradicted yourself. You said Bisping has a 1% chance of beating Anderson and then you said he has the same chance as Shogun does to beat Bones but that's a 0% chance at best.

Anyone has a chance to beat anyone within reason (weight diff) did anyone think Belfort would come that close to beating Jones? it only takes getting caught once and that's the fight over.

Honestly, if Anderson and Bisping fought 100 times I don't think Bisping wins a single one. He doesn't have the power to just catch Anderson and put him to sleep

It's a terrible matchup. Silva's striking is just almost invincible and Bisping is not a good enough wrestler to shut him down for 5 rounds

Bisping would get Bonnar'd or Griffin'd but it'd be entertaining to see how many new moves Anderson would do.

Cole1186

I hope Bisping wins, he's been fighting in the UFC for far too long without a title shot. And I want to seewhat crazy **** Anderson does to The Count.

good thing is silva is trying new stuff, so i don't know how this will end. but i would bet on bisping being franklined

openwindow

I would give bisping a one or two percent chance against Silva. He has gotten better at level changes, and I could see him maybe getting Silva down maybe once. But realistically, he can't keep Silva down. And on the feet he has no chance.
