    What do you think?

    A few years ago I would have picked Dan for sure, but he's slipped, so I think Mike probably takes it.

    I hate to say it, but TUF really didn't do anything to make me want to see this fight anymore than I did before it started. I mean, it's a good matchup between two very good fighters, but Henderson is just so 'blahhhh', that he was an awful pick to be a coach from an entertainment standpoint.

    He has zero charisma, looked bored most of the time, and when he did talk about how he wanted to beat up Bisping or shut him up, it looked forced.

    Like I said, it's still a good fight on an absolutely stacked card, but if we don't get a good fighter or 2 from this season's crop of fighters, than this whole season will have been a waste.

    That being said, I'm picking Henderson by decision.

    I hope Henderson chokes out Bisping but I can see him winning a split decision.

    I think that Ritchie kid who lost to Ross Pearson will end up being good.

    Henderson will need to kill Bisping to win. UFC obviously wants Bisping to become the UFC's Ricky Hatton.

    I think it really just depends on what Hendo has left. He Should beat Bisping.

    To me, this is a no-brainer. Dan. Bisping does nothing great. He is a poor version of Forrest Griffin with half the stamina. One thing to watch for. Bisping loves to get guys in the clinch. This is Dan's playground, the guy is a former Greco-Roman beast and is just naturally stronger than Bisping. Bisping is going to get handled, trust me. Bisping BARELY got past Hamil, he won't even come close in this one. Dan wins all 3 rounds in a UD.

    Bisping used to really get on my nerves but the guys has grown on me watching TUF.

    In saying that if Hendo has anything left he should beat Bisping.

    I had it for Hamil as well. TKO is right, besides Dan being completely shot, he should win.

    The Hamil fight was at 205. At 185 I think Bisping has looked like an animal. He and Henderson both have solid chins so I hope this one stays standing so we can see a war.

    That probably won't happen and Henderson will likely maul him in clinches and on the ground en route to a wide UD.

    Well, Bisping isn't gonna knock Henderson out. And he certainly isn't gonna out wrestle him. Plus, Bisping hasn't beaten anyone by submission since he's been in the UFC. I just don't see any way that Bisping wins.

    Henderson wins by decision in the most boring fight of the night.

    I think Hendo is gonna KO him with one shot......and after Bisping lands on the floor unconcious......Dan is gonna land one MONSTER yet totally unnecessary shot simply because Bisping has ran his jibs so much.


    That is my prediction.

    Seriously. I thought Bisping WAS dead. That was some brutal shit. Hendo is the fucking man!

    I have searched for anything and can't find shit about any interview comments or anything. Bisping is that crybaby bitch at the playground that talks so much shit, and then goes crying home when he gets owned.

    Henderson deserves a title shot rematch against Silva. He's nearing the end of his career, give him one more shot, if he fails let him be the 185 gatekeeper.

    I'd rather see Anderson just move up to 205 for good and see if Hendo can become the man at 185. I don't like his chances against Silva.

    good call Z, it would definitely make 185 interesting again.

    The best thing about Bisping gettng KTFO was watching him stumble out of the cage door trying his best to get the hell out of there.

    Henderson-Silva II needs to happen. Palhares, Franklin and the KO of Bisping has to earn Hendo a shot at something.
