its a clever game by Bipsing, Dana said that after the controversial Sonnen fight Bisping would probably get a title shot, so he doesn’t want to risk a possible loss to Boetsch, and just to go for the title.
100% true Bisping knew he was going to get ragdoled and tehn KO’d. I knew Bisping would never fight Lombard either. Bisping is looking for another mayhem Miller or Jerge rivera, Dan Miller, Akiyama. How you idiots ranke Bisping above the REAL top contenders like Munoz, Vitor, Belcher, Lombard, Weidman, Franklin would smash Bisping, Vanderlei would beat him again, Okami would raggdoll him, Boetch would have beaten him thats why he FAKED an injury just like Fitch did. Its easier to sit back and watch everyoneelse fight because even when someone betetr tahn you loses then teh Bispings same they are ranked higher and deserve title shots.
Go back to school retard!
@ get rid
are you ****ing retarded?

playing the injury game, now back to no respect for bisping
funny how all these injuries are occurring right before summer
I like Lombard Boetsch …. Bisping may have blew a potential title shot if he beat Boetsch which was probably going to be the case he could have been in for the title especially after Chael beats Anderson ….. Now Lombard steps in earlier than planned puts in an impressive performance and gets the shot I think
i wanna see vitor vs lombard
+1 I wanted to see stan lombard but y put lombard againts boetchs I wanna see lombard vs a striker tims jus a oversized mw y put a wrestler againts a stiker gonna b a boaring fight I agreed wit bisping vs tim kuz I thoght imo micheal would b able to gdt right back up and out move tim and counter him all night but hey ill still watch this fight jus not thr fights I wanted to.watch

This article isn’t true bisping isn’t injured he stepped out of the fight with boetch becouse he is going to fight Lombard at ufc 149 who ever wrote this article doesn’t have a good sorce so again it will be bisping vs Lombard at ufc 149
I stand corrected bisping is out its going to be Lombard vs boetch at ufc 149 I think this is a good fight for boetch I say boetch gets another ko he can weather lombards storm and knock him out.
you killed your credibility with the last commit lol just playing
THIS IS ****ING RIDICULOUS
Vitor
Anderson
Georges
Alan
Michael
Brian
Dom
jon (were all glad we dont have to see him fight tho)
Carlos Condit ( he crippled the entire WW division )
Alex G
and i am sure theres more.
these are all from late May to now. seriously what the ****.
Everyone trying to get off the sause because Dirtbag said he was going to ramp up the testing, now their bodies can’t handle the long hours in training they were putting in. I can totally be wrong but I doubt it..
use guys r all stupid its goin to be stann vs bisping now its so clear to see
take a look back at who Bispings fought dickheads. So yeah, hes ducking Boetch… pricks
Boetsch can beat both Bisping & Stann but I think Hectors speed will be too much for him
Bispings not ducking botche,Hes ducking Lombard.As soon as he hears Stanns out cause of injury ,he mysteriously comes up with a injury knowing he would be asked to fight Lombard.He wants to keep his record nice and padded all the way to a tittle shot!
people who are saying “Oh hes playing the injury game” either have never trained in any kind of martial art let alone MMA injuries happen alot just most of the time their not serious all it takes is a kick to land wrong or anything…you can step and get out of bed and **** your leg up INJURiES HAPPEN
