Bisping To Get Title Shot With Win Over Belfort Says UFC Boss | UFC NEWS


Michael “The Count” Bisping has long campaigned for a shot at UFC gold.

It would seem that now all he has to do is get past Vitor Belfort.

“If Bisping wins, Bisping will probably will get that next shot. If not, we’ll see what happens,”
said UFC President Dana White at last weekends TUF 16 post-fight press conference.

But can the British born slugger really make it past one of the best MMA fighters of all-time to secure the shot?

  1. Ollie says:

    It doesnt matter, he’s going to get knocked out anyway.

  2. Dylan says:

    he is very deserving of a title shot, unless silva slips up during their fight, bisping has no chance

  3. TheRussiansAreComing says:

    Win lose or draw he still sucks if he gets a title shot only because everyone else has and there’s no one left. It would be really funny if Bisping wins and Franklin gets the match. Bisping can fight Faber in the prelims, only it will be Faber vs Bisping, not the other way around.
