I never thought it possible but I actually feel bad for Bisping – two consecutive KO losses never looks good.

Yeah, a KO loss to Akiyama, a sub loss to Belcher and a decision win over Professor X shows that Kang is a cert for a KO.

well put mack, but Bisping really needs to have woken up or he is screwed, he looked terrible against Hendo, he didn’t do anything in that fight except for back peddle and throw weak kicks. I really hope he comes out as the aggressor and really takes hold of the fight, but even then I don’t know that he’ll finish Kang.

my prediction is kang by UD

he is going to out-wrestle bisping all day long

I’d say Kang submits him. His jiu jitsu offense is pretty slick.

Kang by UD. On a side note, anyone else interested in seeing Nate the great vs Sonnen after his performance against Okami?

by Cole on Oct 28, 2009 12:40 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

that would be a good match

I would rather of seen hendo/nate but since hendo is still crying about not getting a title shot someone needs to keep nate occupied while belfort/silva scrap

I’m liking Kang more and more as the event approaches, he’s a respectful and talented fighter. Everything he said here was spot on and I’m looking forward to seeing how he’s improved since his last 2 UFC fights. I’ll be cheering for him in Manchester without a doubt, bring on the stick from the Mancs.

As for the fight, Kang has a great chance at winning. He’s a better all round fighter than Bisping, it all depends on who’s more mentally prepared. Bisping will be under huge pressure fighting in Manchester after the Hendo hammering and will be fearful of getting KO’d, though Denis is known for choking in fights and getting caught by a submission that a guy with his BJJ skills should not get caught by. However Bisping doesn’t have any offense off his back and does not have KO power, all of his TKOs have come from flurries and Denis will be too quick on his feet to get caught by multiple punches and knees.

Denis should be able to get the decision win (as long as there aren’t any more hopeless judges), possibly a TKO if Bisping’s chin hasn’t recovered from Hendo. I’ll probabaly put a bit of money on Kang to win, as well as Couture and Swick if for nothing else than to make the fights more interesting.

I don’t know this guy much, does he even have a chance of beating Bisping?

by Alex on Oct 28, 2009 11:04 AM EDT reply actions   0 recs

yes, a very good chance IMO.

by Jizzo on Oct 28, 2009 11:08 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Uhh yeah

He has a good chance alex, he trains wrestling with GSP and was beating belcher until he got caught. Bisping seems to perform horrible against wrestlers(rashad,hendo,hammill). We all know what happened in the Hammill fight, but hopefully we have some british judges not just bc american judges are dumb…..(american judges gave it to bisping)

by Colin D on Oct 28, 2009 11:13 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Kang was pretty well rounded to start with, and tough too. Tristar should do nothing but improve him. He doesn’t get enough respect here, and to be fair he has been pretty lackluster, so hopefully fights to his potential. That would be a quick finish of Bisping. He has a great chance, and will probably be a underdog so put some bank on him.

kang will ko bisping

by jrod on Oct 28, 2009 12:02 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Would love to see Cote vs Nate in the future. Kang takes this easily. 2nd round tko

by CanadianSensation on Oct 28, 2009 1:49 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

I like Cote, but i think anyone outside of A. Silva and vitor Befort gets run over by Marquardt (YES including Dan “Bland” Henderson).

I like Kang a lot, he’s seems like he’s got his head screwed on right. Not to mention he’s dangerous as f*ck everywhere.

This was a really bad interview.

by RyGuy on Oct 28, 2009 3:12 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Kang is favored like -140 (1.4:1)

by Nathan on Oct 28, 2009 3:23 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

KAng by far is the better fighter, sometimes his brain just stops working mid-fight so assuming that does not happen he should TKO/SUB Bisping.

by Khaos_Warrior on Oct 28, 2009 3:39 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

kang is 1 of the most underrated fighters in the ufc rite now! he’s guna finish the count by ko or submission! Bisping dont have nothing to offer kang

kang is garbage…GO BISPING!!!

by fantana817 on Oct 28, 2009 5:25 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Oh yeah Kang is garbage huh I don’t think so bud, check out his record first and who he has fought the we will see who is garbage. Kang is one of the best fighters at middle weight and in the UFC right now. This dude has serious skill and great experience, and has a great chance at beating Bisping. That said also expect Bisping to come out prepared and with agression after his last KO loss, he feels like he has something to prove to erase the memory of his loss and he is fighting in England which should motivate him. Its gonna be a good fight possibly fight of the night. It could go either way but i am leaning towards Kang for some reason.

“what are you training?”
“are you still gonna bring it to him?”
what the hell kind of questions are those? this could be the crappiest interview ever.

by Eric on Oct 28, 2009 5:46 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

If Bisping shows up i think he has this, he wants it more. He’ll make kang gas and win via tko or UD.

Nothing against kang..
