When I wrote a piece previewing
Mike Bisping's most recent fight against Jason Miller and posted it on
Bloodyelbow.com, I got quite a lot of criticism for suggesting the Brit would win pretty easily against a severely under matched opponent. In large parts of the MMA media and online community, it sometimes seems like people's dislike for "The Count" confuses their judgement of his abilities. Well, this weekend at UFC on FOX 2, Bisping has a chance to prove his detractors wrong by defeating a legitimate elite middleweight, before a massive mainstream audience and earn the chance to fight for the title. For Bisping fans like myself, this fight has the feel of being the main event this Saturday.
