Wanderlei training with Babalu, Mo, Werdum at Affliction gym

Gassed or Not if Bisping TKO's Wanderlei it will be his biggest career win. Ill Cry for days then admit Wandy is shot!

If Bisping wins Id imagine a lot of MMA websites will rate his as top 10... Ill rate him just outside the top 10 for sure.

The guys a bum though, his bullshit talk of 1 punch KO's isnt happening, Wandy only needs 1 round to put him to sleep. Wandys trainer said he is still lifting the same weights that he did when he was 205lbs. I think all this talk of him loosing power is Bollox.

it's alright still having the power, but if Bisping gives him the run around for two rounds Wandi will be gassed... thats what i'm worried about, I would assume Bispings KO against Hendo and near KO against Kang will be a lesson learned and going into the ring with a knock out artist, will be enough to think... tire his ass out and go for the kill in the third? Thats def what I would be saying to him if I were his trainer... He just need to get Wandi working in the first two rounds and avoid a sucker punch!!

I can see, Bisping running like a scared girl but wearing him out in rd 1 and 2. Wandi tiring and Bisping taking him down in the third and just throwing punches left right and centre, and a stupid ref stopping it!!

Their argument was that at 195 lbs, his punches werent able to drop Rich, i think for sure he wont hit as hard as when he was 210+ pounds. But I'm fearing what might happen if he doesnt get the job done in the first round tomorrow.

Did you notice Florian picking all the pride guys to lose? Maybe he is biased or maybe he really does think their opponents will be too much for them. (He thought Rothwell was still facing Crocop btw)

Nog and Cro Cop will def win, but i'm not sold on Wandi yet, I really think he's going to gas out!

If Bisping wins Id imagine a lot of MMA websites will rate his as top 10... Ill rate him just outside the top 10 for sure

Yeah i agree with this. I read Bisping today said that with all the injuries at MW, if he can beat Wandi and then another solid opponent then he could get a title shot. I reckon he is probably right with that.


I think the winner of this fight should fight Nate, but Sexyama name has already been mentioned. I dont think beating Akiyama warrants a title shot though, if its Nate then probably yes.

I think Nate needs to prove his worth again after getting completely dominated... am I mistaken, but doesn't Nate train with GSP, if so how the fuck did he get so dominated by Sonnen???

Nate and Sonnen might rematch as they are the top contenders? Bisping would certainly be in the Mix but Sexyama and him would need to fight, Sexyama has only 1 loss to his name you have to remember and while he hasnt dont a lot in UFC he diserves a shot over Wandy or Bisping currently.

Belfort
Sonnen
Marquardt
Akiyama

Thats the fighers over Bisping/Wandy in terms of a shot, A win over Akiyama would give him a good case for a shot but Cote beating Belcher might add him to the mix... Palhares could get a good win, Reljic could get another win.

Id say the winner of Bisping/Wandy needs the Akiyama win followed by another win

I must say im fearing the worst for Wandi tomorrow

Bisping putting the final nail in Wandi MMA career...... well you couldnt have written it any better

Just to let you know, im gonna blame all you guys if Bisping does win tomorrow, for all the Bisping bashing, you know hes gonna give his best ever performance and try to stick it to all of us.

Im reading a lot of negative stuff about Wandy on other sites so a little doubt is creeping into my mind. With that being said, I still 100 percent think Wandy will win this, but the longer the fight goes the more it favours Bisping. It won't last long though so no need to worry.

i'll be pissed if wandi struggles to make weight and he gasses quickly.
The guy has had ages to make the drop to MW and even a 195lb fight inbetween to make the transition easier,and he's had all that time that his manager said he needed to "heal his body and mind"(sort his face out) that they were talking about also,when silva and bisping were surposed to fight at UFC 105.
I've been expecting to see this new rejuvinated MW Wandi, if his performance is effected by the weight cut,then I think that would be terrible and there is not really any excuse for it,if he can't make the weight in the amount of time he has been planning to be a MW now,(I think he 1st mentioned it not long after the rampage fight,which was what,two years ago)then he has to stay as a LHW.

Hopefully he puts on a hell of a show and sparks bisping in the 2nd rd,then we can start looking forward to another serious contender in the MW division,which is just what the division needs at the moment.

when are the weigh ins???

3 am irish/uk time.

I probably would just see the results tomorrow, or watch the replay. I usually watch the weigh-in live at midnight.
