I don't think he'll beat gsp, but if he doesn't care about headlining in Perth he should just wait until summer.
Because GSP and Bisping looked so amazing when they fought each other :lol:
Besides GSP getting a bit gassed, I thought he looked good. Especially after a 4 year hiatus.
He's the greatest mma wrestler of all time. His timing will be even better

They both looked slow and old which is fine because they're both old. But I was at the time shocked how bad they both looked. Both were lucky that Rockhold, Romero, Whittaker and even Jacare weren't the men opposite them, hell you could probably include Gastelum, Mousasi and Weidman among them as well. There's a reason why GSP is talking about retiring again instead of defending against Whittaker, unless Dana can come up with a 'better' fight. It was a great fight but neither looked good, I was shocked by GSPs lack of speed. Whittaker is surperior to Bisping everywhere.

GSP landed an excellent left hook to set up a sensational win but Bisping CLEARLY has vision issues on his right side and IMO the momentum had began to shift before he landed that shot. GSP is a smart man, he knew Bisping being champ was his only chance at being a 2 weight champ he also said that he noticed Bisping was open to left hooks, on the side he clearly has issues on.

That's what happens in your late 30s, you improve.

Also, I seriously doubt GSP could outwrestle Romero in an MMA fight or at all.

I remember this fight. It was the first time I can remember seeing Aldo. I was a Mike Brown fan then. I remember his fights with Uriah Faber before the Aldo fight. Time flies.

We'll see if aldo still believes in himself. I'd like to see him win. Alvarez/Justin is what I'm paying for.

How come Bisping was allowed to fight so soon after his Loss?

I don’t follow this sport, but it seemed quick to me.

He was a replacement, and somehow was not medically suspended aafter getting blasted with a left hook then choked unconscious.

Dinald Cerrone has had fights weeks after one. As long as they are healthy, and the UFC is ok with it, it's not unheard of.

Personally, I feel Bisping should have had at least a 3 month medical suspension following the GSP loss.

To be fair, I didn’t see the fight he had, I knew he’d lost and was just surprised to see him in again so soon. The lad he was fighting looked a bit of a beast too, all wrong for that kind of fight for me. Can’t fault the heart, just sometimes people need protecting from themselves, not sure they got that one right.

I think he's planning on retiring in March and saw a chance to.pick up a few extra hundred grand on the way out.

No. Bisping is a big name. The UFC knew he'd be a proper replacement that wouldn't draw much backlash.

But when taking one's health ino account, definitely not the best move.

That bisping needed to retire. No right answer, their training is fighting so I don't think a quick come back is that big of a deal.
