Jason Day 'Count' down to 'Dooms' day Michael Bisping UFC 85 fight (Part V)

It is the day before weigh ins for my middleweight bout with Michael Bisping at UFC 85: "Bedlam" at the O2 Arena in London, England, on Saturday, June 7.

I am just relaxing and getting ready to cut weight in the morning.

So far it has been a smooth trip. The time change is still taking its toll on me, but I am adjusting slowly and I think I will feel just fine on fight night.

The British media, unsurprisingly, seem very interested in this fight. And the fans out here have been very polite and wishing me the best of luck against their fellow countryman.

I had the pleasure of attending my first UFC press conference today and I enjoyed the experience fielding questions and posing for photos.

In addition, I met Bisping for the first time today and he was very polite and respectful. I think we both agree that this has the potential to be a war. One reporter pointed out that 16 of my 17 wins have come via (technical) knockout or submission and the fact that Bisping has never been finished before.

It is an interesting observation.

Tomorrow will be the longest day. It seems like the day of the weigh ins drags on forever. My weight is right on track and my confidence is high right now. I cant 't wait to finally step into the Octagon on Saturday night.

This is by far my biggest opportunity and biggest fight to date and I plan on taking full advantage of it.

I want to thank everyone who helped me get ready for this fight such as my coaches Lee Mein, Justin Tavernini, Kenny Seaman, Tanya Lee and Eric Deguzman, as well as all my teammates at the Canadian Martial Arts Center.

I will put on one hell of a show on Saturday and thanks to everyone who has been following my blogs here at MMAmania.com.

Keep grindin!
