Then Quarry will be in line to face Okami for the MW title.
I agree with most of your post. I think Bisping is very accurate without significant power...I think Nate has a very good chin [yes, Franklin scored the HLR KO, but nonetheless] and his striking has improved to exceed Bispings...I think they're both going to score with a lot of shot...I just think it's going to hurt more when Quarry lands them.




But I'm not sure if you're saying a win would but Nate in a title fight against Okami [meaning Okami would have beaten A. Silva?], or that he should then fight Okami to determine who will fight A. Silva...but either way, I disagree.

I think Okami has earned the next title fight against Silva outright.

I think Henderson and Franklin need to fight...and potentially...if Nate KO's Bisping, he could face the winner of that fight to determine who gets a shot at the MW champion...after A. Silva and Okami have determined who it would be.
