Rematch With Wanderlei
Michael Bisping, the Season 3 winner of The Ultimate Fighter, wants a rematch with Wanderlei.
“It was a close fight. Personally I think I won rounds one and two,” he told the media at the UFC 110 post-fight press conference. “The only things I felt I got hit with – I mean Wanderlei did a great job, full credit to him. Congratulations to him on winning the fight. Personally, apart from the guillotine and, you know, I got dropped in the third round, but apart from the guillotine in the second, I don’t think he had any offense come my way. I felt I won those two rounds.
I love when fighters say they would like a rematch, because they felt like they won the fight. It comes down to this. If you leave the fight in the judges hands, you just don’t know whats going to happen. Bisping should have finished the fight. If you don’t finish the fight, then you can’t complain about the judges decision. I think Bisping is great for the sport, and has really helped spread The UFC out of the USA, but the guy just rubs me the wrong way sometimes. Seems like he is always running his mouth, and then when he doesn’t win he blames everyone but himself.
