APinoySuperHero Dutch Rutter Trop.exe Have not been following the show to really say anything. I just hope Dan wins the fights, though I can see Bisping backpedaling all fight to beat Dan like he did against Leben. It wont work with Hendo. If Bisping starts to backpedaling Hendo is just going to close the distance get the clinch, take him down and start to ground and pound on Bisping. Hendo has fought much better oppenents than Bisping who are not only better standing but, on there backs too. Bisbing only does good standing up when he is going agenst an opponent that he knows he can beat up on the feet... |

The US team had no grapplers, which is odd because that's not only what Dan teaches but what America is known for. I guess they had hoped Rich would win, so they could have stand up wars, instead of lopsided stand-up and boring ground fights. As for the Matt Hamill fight, the only UK judge on the panel favoured Hamill instead of Bisping.

Hendo stood with Wandy and got the KO. He has a dangerous right hand and may not be as technical as Bisping for striking but, he understand range and distance and will be able to close it out with his wrestling. |

I dont think Bisbing is better then Hendo...Im saying Bisbing only goes stright forward agenst his opponent if he knows he is better than them standing like Elvis sinosic and Josh Haynes...But when he is going agenst someone who he knows can bang like chris lebon and matt hamil he back pedals and only throws weak a** punches... |

Bisping does have the more technical stand up in that he throws leg kicks, has more accurate strikes and actively works the jab, whereas Dan will jab on occasion but looks to use that right hand to land the one shot or have it allow him to enter inside to dirty box and get the takedown.

As for the Matt Hamill fight, the only UK judge on the panel favoured Hamill instead of Bisping. Team US had grapplers. DeMarquez, Dollar, Whitson were all grapplers. They just never really got around using it. As for the Hamill thing ... I believe that Matt Hamill should have won ... but the decision didn't scream "What the ******** is going on, this is bull, let's kill Dana White." It could have gone either way ... |

But look at who he has beat by using that startegy. Franklin, Wandy, Belfort who has Bisping fought besides Evans and Hammil. Hammil who got robbed the fight and Evans who actually beat him. Your telling me that Hendo a guy who has fought Wandy and A.Silva who have better striking ability than Bisping wont be able to utilize his big right hand dirty boxing to out strike Bisping. |

Plus Bisping isnt the wrestler that Rampage is and doesnt have the aggressive style that Rampage has either. |
