Leben is gonna KO Bisping, or it goes the distance and either fighter could win. No Way Bisping will ‘dismantle’ Leben, that must be a joke or you’re on crack. But enough talk, watch Leben put the stamp on Bisping, Oct. 18 on Spike TV (its free baby!)

Bisping is too well rounded for Leben. I can’t believe people are still on Bispings backs for fighting wrestlers who outweighed him by 30lbs. Rashad Evans is fighting Chuck next for gods sake and Bisping could have easily shaded that decision. He lost the Hamill fight but he was obviously not prepared he was so hopped up on adrenaline he completely forgot about winning the fight. People think its an advantage fighting in the Uk but it just means he’s under loads of pressure to put on a performance.

UFC has totally tried to dish bisping perfect opponents to build up a western european star to focus their expansion on. Problem is, he hasn’t proved anything…

Hamill was totally screwed by the judges when they fought, and beating up mccarthy and day at mw isn’t exactly impressive. in my mind hes really fought 2, maybe 3 legit opponents. both evans and hamill clearly won IMO.

Bisping does look very quick since the drop, but my money’s on Leben… Unless it goes to the judges scorecards!

Bisping is in for a serious fight. Leben has improved a lot in the last year or so and he is as tough as they come. Plus, one shot from Leben and Bisping is asleep on the mat dreaming of tea & crumpets. Anarchy in the UK!!!!

talk about “charisma and excitement” … this is a GREAT match-up … Bisping INSISTS on standing and we all KNOW Leben loves to “bang” …
Bisping does not have the power Leben has … Leben by KO

I agree with mike wolfe – definitely an orchestrated build up of Bisping. I am a fan however: he’s always game, always aggressive but hasn’t fought a knock out artist yet in the UFC. Love or loath Leben he hits very hard, has a great guard and has to go unconscious to give in.
I think its a good match up. The question is – if Bisping wins are they rushing him to the top a division that is thining of top talent day by day?
Oh, and Bisping has one of the best ‘walk ins’ in the game.

I’ve always wondered whether Bisping is for real or whether his career has been carefully charted to build the UK fan base. Leben is the most formidible opponent Bisping has faced, so we’ll see how he does. They’re both scrappers, so this could be an exciting fight.

Leben gets dismantled quick in that one.

Why can’t Bisping fight in the US? I feel they are purposely keeping him out of the mainstream until they are sure he is a contender.

I remember when UFC 87 was officially announced we were all worried because it was tagged as being headlined by Lesnar vs. Coleman on UFC.com…. but that only lasted a few days until they announced the main event of St Pierre-Fitch… so I’m thinking Silva vs. Okami gets announced right after July 19th

Hoping for a double KO. Can’t stand either of them. Terrible main event, better be free.

This needs a solid co-main event to make it legit….. but this should still be a great fight anyway. I’m sure all the UK fans will feel it’s a deserving main event
