    Any comments regarding short notice were obviously in relation to the fact that Maia and Chael are two very different fighters


    As are Munoz and Bisping, yet we don't hear Sonnen banging on about taking this new fight at short notice.

    Both trained for a fight next week, both have new opponents, yet Bisping seems to be making out like he is the one at a disadvantage because of it.

    Sonnen's game plan wouldn't change regardless of who he is fighting though. Take them down and whale on them...that's really it.

    I'm not even sure if he worries about things like taking shots on the way in as he chin appears to be made from granite.

    Bisping decision win
    Is this going to be on ESPN guys?

    I think Sonnen takes it by decision, Maia subs Weidman and Evans decisions Davis.

    The Middleweight Division is pretty exciting these days.

    Yes, it's on ESPN notwithstanding Dana White's "ESPN don't cover the UFC" remarks during his latest rant about ESPN.

    Cheers Dean - but how would people see the video if there is no link attached? I think everyone seems hyper-sensitive and anal when it comes to this forum.....A link to a video on Youtube is not advertising - it is a link to a video which is, I am sure, of interest to the forum as the entire thread is about Bisping and Sonnen!!

    That's just the rules of the forum mate. I think they just have to be strict on it with everybody to avoid spam. The link to Youtube is fine but the one to your site may be considered advertising. I could be wrong though.
    By the way you can embed the video by using the Youtube tags in the reply box and just put in everything after the =

    I can see why you are sponsoring fighters...your manner of talking to potential customers leaves a lot to be desired. :D

    You tube is ok, spamming your site is not and you where already told this.

    you are spot on, youtube is not trying to drag people to your own site so is clearly showing us stuff for our benefit and not advertising, and if we ever show any flexibilty to this, it will be to regular users who contribute to the forum and did not set up an account to promote themselves.

    This is why this forum is a chat forum and not just an advertising site full of spam.

    Where has bisping made a big deal about it?

    Are you just making stuff up now???

    It's stepping up a notch. Bisping said Sonnen was on PED's because 'he only has one testicle'
    Apparently, he has one testicle. One testicle! This is why he uses performance enhancing drugs. He's gonna need more than one little ball to fight me next weekend!"

    Witty Sonnen response incoming!

    But what are the odds that when Bisping loses he comes out wit "I'm not too disappointed as i took this fight on very short notice", even though he was fighting anyway! That's just the way he rolls :rolleyes:

    UFC Undisputed predicts Evans winning this. Would have preferred a Sonne v Bisping vid tho.

    looking forward to this.

    What is the starting time for this? It should be 1am for us but ESPN are not going live until 3am... does that mean the fights start on Facebook?

    well i have to say im shouting for bisping on this one (although realistically i think sonnen will do him). If bisping can keep him on his feet could make things alot more interesting

    with all the talk of sonnen smashing bisping, there has been no talk of evans v davis. i think this could be good, i'm not a big fan of rashad but i would like him to win to set up a fight with jones. I think with rashad's speed and wrestling he has some tools to cause jones some problems

    I am rooting for Evans to win, only because I want to see bones completely destroy him. He can't duck bones forever.

    Not at all - there are plenty of others that don't get the promotion end of MMA. I think they're called "Sherdoggers" or something - they're the same 'purists' that said Brock was bad for the sport too, despite the record breaking PPV buys, new fans, and media attention he brought to UFC.

    i would have though if anything, jones was ducking evans, not that he needs to-the trash talk and genuine dislike will make this very interesting

    So how exactly has Jones ducked Evans?
    Evans wasn't available to fight, so Jones defended his title. Its a bit much to expect Jones to sit by and wait for him, he wants to prove he can beat everyone, so that's what he is doing. Then there is also the money aspect.

    Anyone else think Sonnen's boxing is under rated. I honestly think he could hold his own with Bisping on the feet. But for some reason I just think Bisping is gonna win this. Throughout his career Sonnen has excelled as the under dog but never really won some of the fights he's been expected to.

    He's so good a wrestler people forget he can box, sure he punched Silva around and dropped him a couple of times an all..
