Dana White says Yoel Romero is next for Michael Bisping with Anderson Silva also on verge of title shot

Russell Ess - February 1, 2017

The MMA world is waiting on the official announcement of UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping’s next title defense. It sounds like UFC President Dana White has the matchup already lined up as he told Matt Serra and Jim Norton on the latest “UFC Unfiltered” podcast that #1 UFC ranked middleweight Yoel Romero is next in line for Bisping, with former middleweight champion Anderson Silva right there in the mix if he gets his hand raised over Derek Brunson at UFC 208.

Gegard Mousasi: Michael Bisping has "a good chance" against Yoel Romero

Tom Taylor - January 31, 2017

In June of 2016, British middleweight veteran Michael Bisping shocked the world by snuffing Luke Rockhold in the first round to win the UFC middleweight title. Bisping followed this win by defending the title against Dan Henderson with a controversial decision win. Despite his status as a defending champion, however, Bisping is likely to be a substantial underdog in his next bout, which will pit him against former Olympian Yoel Romero at a to-be-determined date.

Anderson Silva wants Michael Bisping rematch, but not in England

bjpenndotcom - January 27, 2017

In early 2016, former UFC middleweight kingpin Anderson Silva stepped into the Octagon to fight UFC veteran Michael Bisping in a highly anticipated middleweight clash in London, England. The fight, while certainly a thrilling one, came with quite a bit of controversy. At the end of the third round, Bisping had lost his mouthguard; when he motioned for referee Herb Dean to give it to him, Silva landed a flying knee that dropped ‘The Count’ to the canvas as the round ended. Despite Silva celebrating as if he had won the fight, the commission regained control of the situation and the fight continued at the start of the fourth round. After five hard fought rounds, Bisping was awarded the unanimous decision win, despite many fans scoring the fight in Silva’s favor. This led to speculation that the judging in the fight was biased due to the fact that it took place in England.

Yoel Romero is really working for the middleweight title shot! To end 2016, UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping made his first successful title defense as he picked up a unanimous decision win over Dan Henderson at UFC 204 in England. Following the win, Yoel Romero was crowned the middleweight #1 contender after picking up a brutal 3rd round KO win over former middleweight champion Chris Weidman on the main card of UFC 205 in November. With Romero declared the middleweight #1 contender, many were wondering when the UFC would officially announce the scrap, however Bisping revealed in a recent interview that he would be sidelined until April or May as he recovered from knee surgery, at which point he would pursue a money fight.

Tom Taylor - January 25, 2017

https://youtu.be/GZ2248yGrUk Last November, on the main card of UFC 205, Chris Weidman and Yoel Romero fought in what was quite clearly a number one contender fight at middleweight. In advance of this fight, however, UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping suggested that he had no interest in fighting Romero, even if he beat Weidman, citing the Cuban’s recent brush with USADA as a reason.

Anderson Silva eyeing Michael Bisping rematch, with or without the belt

bjpenndotcom - January 13, 2017

Nearly a year ago, former UFC middleweight kingpin Anderson Silva stepped into the Octagon in the main event of ‘UFC Fight Night: London’ to square off with fellow MMA veteran Michael Bisping. The fight went the distance, and was certainly a controversial one, with Bisping ultimately being awarded the unanimous decision win in front of his hometown fans. With that being said however, at the end of the third round, Bisping motioned to referee Herb Dean in order to get his mouthpiece back. Dean did not step in and call a timeout, and Silva capitalized, landing a flying knee that dropped ‘The Count’ as the round ended. While Silva celebrated what he thought was a win, Bisping was recovering between rounds before the start of the fourth round.

Last week, UFC welterweight champ Tyron Woodley and middleweight champ Michael Bisping made headlines by agreeing to fight at a catchweight of 180lbs. While it remains to be seen if the UFC actually makes this fight, it’s bound to ruffle a few feathers if they do. Woodley, after all, is currently in the crosshairs of deserving welterweight contenders like Stephen “Wonderboy” Thompson, who he recently battled to a draw, and Demian Maia, who recently submitted Carlos Condit to extend his welterweight win-streak to 6.

Tyron Woodley: Michael Bisping should be Fighter of the Year

Tom Taylor - December 2, 2016

England’s Michael Bisping has already had a very  long career. Where many fighters start dropping off by the juncture he’s at, however, he’s just hitting his stride. In fact, 2016 was probably the best year of his career thus far. It began with a back-and-forth war with middleweight legend Anderson Silva, who he defeated with a hard-fought decision win. Next, Bisping stepped up on short notice to snuff Luke Rockhold, who he’d lost to less than two years earlier. With this knockout win, Bisping defied the odds to become the UFC middleweight champion. Finally and most recently, Bisping capped off his incredible 2016 with a tooth-and-nail decision defeat of Dan Henderson, who handed him the most decisive loss of his career back in 2009.
