UFC 199 Rockhold vs Bisping

Posted 8 years ago

Pretty pumped for this mainly to watch Bisping hammer Rockhold all over the cage....controversial? How can I ever not root for Bisping - he is one of my all time favorites but yes I am aware he needs to learn to hit a bit harder.

The card:

My predictions:

Rochold vs Bisping: Bisping

Cruz vs Faber: Cruz

Holloway vs Lamas: Holloway

Poirier vs Green: Poirier

Well, I'm far from an expert on the issue, but Luke Rockhold is an absolute freak and while Bisping is no slouch either I can't really bet against him.

I would say this tho Rockhold was literally yellow and looked ill in a recent interview and has also been training for a different fighter for so long and doing soooooo much press. Even the fact that Rockhold has never experienced press like this and Bisping has 1000 times needs to be taken into account.

Bisping round 3 TKO

I want Bisping to win because he's from the UK and I like what he has to say. All other things being equal I think Rockhold will take this. He's the bigger guy and not sure how much that flying knee took out of Bisping's chin against Silva.

One thing is for sure, this fight IS going to be awesome. Never seen a boring Bisping fight.

Those guys at AKA train pretty hard although I'm not sure how smart they train. These guys are always pulling out of fights because of injury. Cain has had to pull out of a couple of fights and DC had to pull out recently. Have to agree bisping doesn't have enough power but that's what makes some of his fights interesting. Either he's winning by decision or he's getting knocked out.

Bisping has to talk this fight up. If he loses might be the last big payday for him. Having said that Rockhold by submission or knock out.
