@tacos

I love you Tacos, but for the love of god, pull out your ear plugs, put down your fanboy foam finger and your union jack shades for a moment okay?  BISPING NEVER FOUGHT A REAL CONTENDER. That is a undisputed fact.  Stop living in denial.

Bisping getting his ass beat. He's gotta adjust this round or it's gonna be too late. Getting down to GSP early is a bad way to win the fight.

2-0 GSP

GSP looked visibly tired at the end there. All that muscle is starting to have its drawback.
