    Re: UFC Fight Night 55: Rockhold vs. Bisping (Nov/8)

    Does Rockhold earn a title shot by beating Bisping at this event or should the UFC be looking at Jacare?

    Rockhold has a win over him but a recent loss to Vitor Belfort.

    Re: UFC Fight Night 55: Rockhold vs. Bisping (Nov/8)

    The UFC has parsed this card into a four-fight main card and a long prelim card despite the fact it's all on Fight Pass.

    Maybe the salary and sponsor structure plays into this.

    They're bringing back Walt Harris.

    Marcus Brimage supposedly in for injured Jumabieke Tuerxun.

    Other way around, with Tuerxun in to fight Brimage.

    Neil Seery, Aljamain Sterling, Frankie Saenz, and Michael Imperato (cut) also removed from the event.

    Rockhold's size advantage was obvious at the presser.

    Rockhold defeats Bisping nonchalantly.

    11 fights, 11 finishes.

    Every fighter on that card should've gotten a bonus. Officially, it was Rockhold, Smolka, Whittaker/Hester.

    ugh, I was hoping Bisping could win this one. I used to think he was a dick, but the more he talks he's actually pretty decent with occasional moments of being a dick.. which may or may not be his attempt at promoting his fights. He seems to respec those who are not shit talkers with him though. I like that.

    Should The Hulk meet up with Mark Hunt?
