Bisping is not happy with the decision score for Wanderlei Silva
Michael Bisping feels that following his 15-minute stand up battle against Wanderlai Silva at UFC 110, that he deserved the victory. This was Wanderlei's first victory at 185lbs and he looked like he hadn't lost a lot of his power while cutting the weight.
Wanderlei Silva had the "The Count" in real danger several times and nearly finished him at the end of round 3 with heavy and precise striking. Wanderlei Silva controlled the fight more than we are used to see, with wild hooks and clinch knees, although Bisping feels he put forward a strong case to the judges.
"I don't know," Bisping said. "It was a close fight; personally I thought I won the first two rounds."
Bisping feels he took Round 1 on aggression and effective striking and that the guillotine attempt in Round 2 wasn't enough to award Silva the round with. Obviously he lost the 3rd round after the knockdown and some domination by Silva in the stand up game.
"Wanderlei did a great job, congratulations to him, full credit him on winning the fight. Personally apart from the guillotine and when I got dropped in the third, but apart from that as far as round two I didn't really have any offense come my way. I felt I clearly won those first two rounds."
Bisping has shown frustration in his recent record which stands at 1-2. Especially after he was so close to a title shot last year until he was brutally knocked out by Dan Henderson at UFC 100 and dropped out of title contention.
"I trained my *ss off. My team works really hard. We don't put all this effort in to lose to a good fight or a good performance. Yes Wandy is a legend and I was very proud to fight him, but I'm a little disappointed right now."
He also said how he wanted to make a swift return to prove his worth and would definitely consider a rematch. After this loss though he will need to fight more top fighters and win to hope to be back in contention in a stacked 185lb UFC division.

will stay for a loooonnnggg time until he learns what a win is.
I respect Hardy, but Bisping better be careful or he'll get disowned by the British also. I dont see how anyone could see the decision differently.
I could have sworn that fight was stopped before the 3rd round ended as Bisping wobbled back to the corner. Reply 2 years ago
What Bisping is saying is what every last fighter that loses a close decision feels after a fight, the difference is that Bisping just says so out loud and people can't handle honesty, I mean Sonnen has the same problem with you guys that he just speaks his mind.
I guarantie one thing, had Bisping pulled his head of of that guillotine before the end of round 2 he would have won the fight. Anyone care to argue that point? Reply 2 years ago
You must have been drunk or something, I remember also seeing Wand grab TWO leg kicks and sweep his leg and put him on his ass.
Yes. those are considered takedown. Bisping was never close to ending that fight, yet Wandi with 10 more seconds would have choked him out IT WAS TIGHT! Then if 2 more seconds in the last round he would have been KO'D.
I happy to argue that point also, you must be blind Krogan from patriotism....nothing wrong with patriotism, but come on man! Reply 2 years ago
You obviously dont know jack about MMA, spouting a bunch of crap because your precious fighter got owned more than once.

I don't blame Bisping for being indignant, what do you expect after all the disrespect from Wand and the way his "Fans" behave. I've always liked Wand but choose not to verbally masturbate over him in chat rooms.
Also something to remember about Wand is that he only started saying the only reason he fights is for the fans after he started losing. He mentioned it before, but wasn't so tit's gone about it. I've been watching his interviews for years so I watched the change happen. So you noobs who just got into the sport, a note to you. Watching a few highlight videos doesn't make you an expert on the sport.
Oh and one more thing, fighters say they disagree with refs decisions all the time, most don't even bother to give the respect that Mike has after this fight. So stop complaining about his comments like he's the anti christ, I'm sick to death of American fans "that's all it is by the way, with the odd exception" slating Bisping, The Civil War is OVER. Can't you just be happy that the U.K has a few good fighters now?
There's tons of cocky American fighters, maybe all the U.K fans should start complaining about every single thing they do? We'd have a lot more to talk about, that's for sure.
Weak + The amount of extra population the States has over the UK. Reply 2 years ago
Think about it.
If you want respect earn it & act like it.
Also you base American fans from what you see here and thats not the majority.
I have absolutely nothing against the UK Reply 2 years ago

Bisping didn't do much, he was hesitating and looked like he was scared to trade punches with Wanderlei. Reply 2 years ago
I think he won the first, and Silva the 3rd. The 2nd was tough to score and close to even, but the judges have to give someone 10 points, so Silvia takes the round, and the fight on aggression.
When Bisping is aggressive and tries to beat on people, he's pretty good. But it seems as soon as he fights someone with big power, he gets defensive and tries to outpoint people.
If his defense was better, this might work. Reply 2 years ago
Very few get really good without some losses, and the UFC is full of tough guys now days. So if I say Wanderlei won, Im not being bias saying so, everyone can have their opinion, but I happened to see it the way the judges did, and personally think the ref didnt call it over right at the 3rd bell because he knew Wanderlei won also. Reply 2 years ago
So you could say that at least once Bisping was saved by the bell and coming so close to a stoppage wins you the fight in UFC or Pride rules.
Bisping's dissapointed because he snatched defeat from the jaws of victory and shouldn't have let that happen. He can however take a lot of plusses from this fight. He looked better than ever and is clearly improving with every fight, he's becoming much more disciplined, he gave a good fight to Silva despite most fans, even some of his own saying Silva would blow him away easily, and he'll have learnt a lot from the fight. He needs a good, challenging fight next but he's not ready for Markquardt yet, perhaps someone like Yushin Okami would be an interesting fight for him.
Silva should get going against any middleweights he can. I think he can still give most people a real challenge and if he goes all out like he can, he could upset a lot of the top MW prospects.
We'll be back after the break. Reply 2 years ago
Bisping does it 24-7. Real D-bag.. Reply 2 years ago
