UFC president Dana White says Michael Bisping (23-4) will get his shot at UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva if he gets past Vitor Belfort (21-10) next month. UFC 155 saw two other contenders fall by the wayside, namely Tim Boetsch and Alan Belcher. Bisping has gone 9-3 in the UFC's MW division, with losses to Dan Henderson, Wanderlei Silva and Chael Sonnen. White told ESPN "The Count" would finally get his chance with a win at UFC on FX 7 in Brazil.

 

"In that division, there were so many guys coming up. A couple of those guys lost tonight. If Bisping can beat Belfort - that's a tough fight for Mike - he deserves the shot at Anderson."

Brilliant! Lets just see what Saturday brings. I think everyone is looking forward to bisping v vitor in some way shape or form.

 

 

lol Dana be trolling. He will play the 'well he didn't win convincingly' card IF he somehow grinds out a boring decision. Smart money is on Vitor via murder
