This should be a good fight

Bisping calls out Belcher
Hopefully pretty soon. The knee is healing up nicely. It's been three weeks since the operation, and I have full mobility. It feels good to start training again. I was speaking to Joe Silva, UFC matchmaker, quite recently, and I'm hoping to fight, I believe it's UFC 152, the 22nd of September, in Toronto. A couple of potential match ups. One being Brian Stann -- I know he's got a shoulder injury, so I'm not sure if that will make it or not -- but, I'd like to fight Brian. He's an incredible fighter and certainly somebody who would move me towards a title shot. The second one is Alan Belcher. Alan Belcher's somebody that's been calling me out for, seems like, forever now, and to be quite frank, I'm sick of it. So, Alan Belcher, if your balls are big enough, call Joe Silva, and let's do it!Comment -
ha yeah, good one Bisping, im sure Belcher is really concerned with your brutal KO power!Comment -
Belcher all the way for this one

Nelson vs SassComment -
Or are u sayin thts what it should be, because I'd agree!?Comment -
ha good, as much as I'd like to see Gunnar vs Sass, I think Wiman vs Sass will present better money making potential!Comment -
yeah pretty sure its on the Nottingham card...they'll be some injuries tho no doubt. Yeah only way Sass wins is by sub and dont think he'll get it this timeComment -

bisping firing on all cylinders
FO: So, nice to be popular with all your colleagues? Stann, Belcher and Weidman have all called you out lately.
Yeah it seems like I am the man of the moment right now doesn’t it? That’s fine by me, I’m a professional fighter and I’ve not been busy enough lately to be honest so, I will happily fight all three of them - Stann, Weidman and Belcher can all have it. I’ve got no problem fighting and beating all three of them, either on three consecutive cards or all on one night if they want.
FO: Break it down for us - if you had a pick of one of them, who would you face and why?
“Listen, Belcher’s getting on my nerves. He keeps saying he has got the style to beat me - what style? No man with a tattoo like that can talk to anyone about style! He’s been calling me out for a while now so I’d say to him, when you beat someone other than a pure jiu jitsu guy then call me. Brian Stann I respect, fine, I think we are on collision course and we can have that fight. I’ll win.
“And now Chris Weidman is calling me out. Well, he’s on a roll but I don’t think a win over a fat Mark Munoz makes you a contender. Especially when Munoz has bounced into the Octagon like he’s at a Take That concert and with a haircut that looks like Belcher’s tattooist has switched careers. Did that distract him? It distracted me. I couldn’t take my eyes off it. What was it supposed to be, do you know?
“Everyone’s talking about Weidman today but I tell you what, we were on the same card in January and I had to switch his fight with Maia off. I was trying to warm up backstage and the fight was putting me to sleep. I wanted to get hyped up and it was like watching paint dry. He looked good last night - or did Munoz look awful?
“They all seem like nice guys, good luck to them - except Belcher, he’s been getting on my nerves so lets not include him [in the good luck wishes] - but I will happily fight them all, no problem. I want to be the champion and I think I am one more win away from a title shot. And any of these guys can be my first defences.”
FO: Speaking of titles, Anderson defended his at the weekend in the big rematch with Sonnen. What did you think of the fight?
Chael looked amazing in round one, then maybe he got overconfident. He went back to his corner they said ‘you’re amazing, its going amazing,’ then round two things deviated from the plan. Things went a bit ‘Dancing With The Stars’ when that backfist came out.
“What was all that about? I had to check what channel I was watching. Anyway, then he had a sit down and then that was it, Anderson was on him. Anderson capitalised and took him out in style, as per usual. Good finish.”Comment -
nate quarry said that during a training session between chael sonnen and chris leben, sonnen admitted to quitting during the jeremy horn fight. sonnen said he wanted out of the fight so he handed the triangle to horn. leben called him a coward, and sonnen said "yea, you're right".

Ufc 152 adds joey benz vs mighty mouse as the main event, and bisping vs stann as co-main.
Kinda nutty that bj/rory is third on the bill.Comment
