That would be an F level fighter, right? :-) For a free card, the fights are fine. For a paying card, they are shit with the talent available in the UFC. Leben is average, no more, no less. And he is part of a growing group in the UFC that has some entertaining fights, which get confused with being a good fighter. “22-43″ ? That would be an F level fighter, right? :-)

I am not saying Leben is a bad fighter. He is a decent fighter. Sure, he has a great chin and has knockout power. But he will never be a contender for the belt. With A level being Silva, Henderson....top contenders and C level being Josh Haynes, Ross Pointon, McCarthy. Leben is just at best an average B level 28…..

Bisping again being treated like royalty, now after 8 or 9 fights finally moving from c level fighters to bottom of the barrel B level fighters. We all seen what a fast, striker like Silva did to the slow, robotic like movement of Leben. I see Bisping winning. The UFC would not of made the match up if they didnt think he had a really good chance to win again. Just when is he going to have to face a Henderson or Franklin or Marquardt??

Can't wait to see Thiago Silva back in the cage. For a guy with a very humble demeanor, he's a straight up killer when the fight starts. Definitely my second favorite LHW, after Forrest!

Leben will scrap, anyway. Thiago Silva/Machida is even more interesting to me. I don't know if I'd pay the $45.00 for it, but I'm definitely watching, and with mucho gusto.

Naturally a riot will ensue and "MMA hooligans" will be born.

Michael Bisping vs. Chris Leben Lyoto Machida vs. Thiago Silva Keith Jardine vs. Brandon Vera Luiz Cane vs. Rameau Thierry Sokoudjou Akihiro Gono vs. Dan Hardy Shane Carwin vs. Neil Wain Are all bouts I genuinely want to see. I agree this would not fly as a ppv without a better main event, but it is a pretty nice card. While we all have been hearing about this being free, the average Spike viewer has not. UFC 89 looks pretty damn good for a free card.
Michael Bisping vs. Chris Leben
Lyoto Machida vs. Thiago Silva
Keith Jardine vs. Brandon Vera
Luiz Cane vs. Rameau Thierry Sokoudjou
Akihiro Gono vs. Dan Hardy
Shane Carwin vs. Neil Wain

Are all bouts I genuinely want to see. I agree this would not fly as a ppv without a better main event, but it is a pretty nice card.
