At this time Bisping is too inexperienced and would get taken apart, once he gets with a better camp and has some more fights under his belt then this could be a phenomenal matchup, but right now Shogun with little trouble.

this would be a dream match only for Rua.

Shogun via murder rd. 1.

Bisping (if he's given a little time)

No really - give him a couple of years and even Wand will be asking him for tips.

*flees*

git.

agreed, bisping is too inexperienced at this point. the guy needs to get some fights against quality opponents before he gets a big match like this

agreed, dont get me wrong here, Bisping does have lots of skill and potential, but...

#1 He does not have much experience outside of England even.

#2 He really needs to work on his hand speed

other than that he is a damn good fighter, just not in the same league as Shogun.

Bisping isn't ready, he needs more training and I think that he is going to lose the first time he fights someone who will jump on him when they stun him. He was stunned by Ross on the show and by Haynes at the live event ancd both fighters allowed him to walk away and regain his bearings, if someone can follow after they hit him, Bisping could be easy picking.
