Chael Sonnen vs Michael Bisping fight video preview for UFC on Fox 2 on Jan. 28 in Chicago

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) invades the United Center in Chicago, Ill., this Sat., Jan. 28, 2012, with its UFC on FOX 2: "Evans vs. Davis" event scheduled for an 8 p.m. ET start time.

That means sometime around roughly 8:45 p.m. or so we can expect to see the co-main event of the evening, which is a middleweight title eliminator featuring the always controversial Chael Sonnen taking on British bad boy Michael Bisping.

Seeing as we're talking about two veritable heels squaring off against each other, "The Count" knows there are quite a few folks hoping to see them both kissing canvas. He's ready to disappoint y'all.

"A lot of people are wishing for a double knockout in this one but that ain't going to happen. There's only going to be one person knocked out and that's Chael Sonnen."

Sonnen keeps it simple:

"I'm going to take these (fists), I'm going to walk across the ring, and I'm going to hit him with them repeatedly. If he hits me more times with his fists, he'll win, if I hit him more, I'll win."

We're just a few days away, Maniacs. Who ya' got advancing on to a fight against Anderson Silva for the 185-pound strap?

If he hits me more times with his fists, he’ll win, if I hit him more, I’ll win.

At least he is being honest. Decision victory either way.

Fighters fight. Snitches Snitch.

I Didn't Like How He Made it Seemed Like MMA Has No Technicality About It

He gets so caught up in his WWE speeches that he doesn’t realize what he’s saying might not be the best for the sport. I care more about the other people who hear it and take it seriously. He sounded more like a critic of the sport than a fighter.

Sonnen takes this one pretty easily I think

Though I dont see a knockout occuring, ohh how I wish for one!! The image of The Count being put down for the Count via H-Bomb still brings a smile to the ol’ mug!!!

How can you not love Chael's mic work?

Even when he’s trying to tone it down, it’s provocative. I love a guy that just keeps it simple, says what he plans on doing, and goes in there and does it (pretty much).

1. Lyoto Machida
2. Thiago Silva

I agree.

I assume he’s going to be getting out wrestled, if it was 5 rounds he would have a longer chance to win.

I am going with Bisping on this one

I think he will be able to get up when he needs too and pepper Chael with enough shots to get the decisive W

But he IS a clown. He spews nonsense and his fans eat it up. He’s good inside the cage, but not great. I think more people would realize that if he didn’t run his mouth so much.

and the fact he DID back up his mouth. Now he lost, but he still put a beating on Silva like he said he would

Just not sure Bisping can stop the takedown

I’m almost positive Chael will take him down at will here. The question is, can Bisping pace himself and catch him with a good one in between. On the fence with this fight.

The Hendo H-Bomb gif of Bisping will continue to be posted on MMA blogs and forums. Some times it is funny, some times it is . . . meh, OK. yeah. it was funny. cool.

I just think it is funny to be so concerned with proper grammar when posting in this kind of forum, especially when terms like pwnage are involved.

You do your thing though. I am not hating. It makes me smile. I am constantly concerned with all of that from a professional standpoint so I use mania as an escape.

I assume that Chael will just grind out another pitter patter gnp display but maybe something unexpected will happen… doubt it though.

Why does everyone always bash Bisping’s punching power. He doesn’t go to decisions a ridiculous amount of the time like people make out. He demolished his last 2 opponents with KOs and has 4 of his last 7 fights finished with strikes. Not that bad IMO.

Admittedly one of those 4 KOs were HIM getting KO’ed, lol.

After a quick gander over his record, he has about a 50% finish rate. That is respectable.

If you take a gander down his fighting record, even if you take those two kos away (which I wouldn’t), he still is above .500 finish percentage.

I agree with you crizzy

Bisping doesnt pick his opponents
and he usually finishes them

Now he never actually KO’s them, but still finishes them
that being said, Chael takes this imo

Huge difference between KO and TKO

Bisping has stopped many a person with his pillows. Not that he would ever knock them out but even the water can wear grooves in a rock after centuries.

i guess we shall see .. i always pick against him and i usually end up being wrong about the count … i know that i would of figured that the ufc would match him up against stann or belfort…i didnt see them matching him up with chael ..

Snail Sonnen takes this unfortunately by decision. this will be a slow and boring fight. Sonnen’s chin is too tough and Bisping’s to slippery on the ground for Sonnen. 3 rounds of takes down attempts and escapes….zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

And now he’s fighting Bisping? I thought Munoz had a chance but now I definitely know who is going to win. I bet Brian Stann could even put Bisping away, he put a lot of good fighters away.
