Leben KO's Bisping 2nd rd.

Yeah this year McDonald takes it, but I think if Bisping gets 2-3 fights in he'll beat McDonald. I don't know how much more effective Bisping is going to be though if he stays in The Wolf's Lair or whatever it's called. I think he'll be a 6-10 MW in the UFC unless he switches to an elite camp.

The Chainsaw rumor there was nothing to it. And Bisping's opponents will still be solid fighters but his first few fights at MW won't be on the same calibre as Rashad right away at least.

I posted that MacDonald would be a good measuring stick for Bisping at 180 lbs on the first thread about him dropping weightclasses. JayMac is a gate keeper. He only loses to the best amd beats the middle tier fighters. Hes great with subs if you let him try long enough, keep in mind Leban was even beating his ass till he got caught in a sub.

Bisping would imo murder Mac. If a good strong wrestler in Rashad had trouble taking Bisping down how is Mac going to, he isnt half the wrestler Rashad is.
Bisping tko 2nd round.
it goes much like Franklin Mac, with Mac taking a beating.

Bisping vs Mac is a much closer match up that much people think, I still think that Mac would take a decision. However, since this fight is probably not going to happen soon I think Mac should fight someone else in Canada (Eastman, Tanner, whoever) and for Bisping, I think Nakamura should also drop to 185 and fight Bisping there. What do you guys think?
