UFC just posted an article giving Jason Day the go ahead to face bisping. this fight probably loses some hype with losing leben and quarry as the replacement. i guess the UFC is rewarding Bisping for totally dominating charles mccarthy. put another notch in the win collum for bisping well, so much for Quarry getting the nod to face bisping.

Leben dropped the ball on this one. Had he made his Oregon court appearance, and assuming it was his first offense, he'd probably not done any jail time. The courts get a little pissed when people blow them off, and that's probably why he'll spend some time in the can.

This would be a real step up for both fighters. I couldn't say who would win it, but I think it would be an excellent matchup. After the complete ugliness and lack of engagement that both Bisping and Quarry faced at UFC 83, they should be ready to fight again . . no doubt. I hope they match Bisping with Quarry.
