It looked like miller just was competing in an amateur fight. His boxing technique was just horrible (can be blamed on him gassing out). But that brings me to my next point... how do you knowingly enter a 5 round fight with a gas tank of about 6.5 minutes? I always liked watching miller fight, especially when he was younger, but his "swagger" or whatever you want to call it, just made him look unprofessional, amateurish, and unknowledgeable about the entire sport.
Broke my heart to see Miller fade after the first, and all on cardio. That wasnt him in that ring, but i wish I knew why.
Bisping is a shithead, and DEFINITELY got a lecture from Dana, otherwise he wouldn't have flipped the switch like he did after the fight and changed his whole attitude to that of respect. He told all the fans at the weigh in to go fuck themselves, not smart.
Miller's body looks like it's diminishing, he needs to go on a good bodybuilding program. Technique didn't look great either, I wonder if he's just been outta the gym for a long time. I'd love to see him hook up with 10th Planet. Bisping never impresses me, I used to like him way back when he was in TUF but since then he's exposed himself as a douche. He almost kicked Miller in the fucking head while Miller was on the ground (he missed). At the end of the fight Rogan said he could face Anderson Silva soon and that gave me a huge chuckle lol
I was wondering if perhaps Miller had trouble cutting weight. He looked a LOT smaller than he was on TUF.
I like the fact that Bisping said he wouldn't be any match for Silva right now. But otherwise, like others have said, he wasn't impressive in the fight.
I wasn't impressed with Bisping. He does what he does. Tire you out until you stop defending. But once again, he can't KO anyone. I was disappointed in Miller's plan of attack and gas tank.
Diego had FOTN for sure though. In my opinion at least.
Mayhem could've finished it in the first round with a flurry of elbows while he had Bisbing pressed against the cage, it wouldve been perfect. I didn't understand why he was just laying there, like he was already needing to recover. Something definitely went wrong during camp or his nerves got the better of him as he walked into that cage because it definitely was not the same Mayhem that fought Jake Shields. Let him get his shit together, put together a good, JJ emphasized game plan and see what a focused Mayhem can pull off, I think he's very talented, just too distracted that night.
Personal feelings on Bisping are irrelivent. Fact is you have to be a bad sob to beat him. He's super tough.
Yeah, that wasnt Miller.
As soon as I saw Miller walk out, I knew the night wasn't going to go well. Watch it again, he looks like a nervous wreck.
I really, really wanted Bisping to lose. I think I'm still holding his "win" over Hammil against him.
I have followed Miller's entire career and I am certain that something went wrong as he was getting ready for the fight. Illness, injury, something. He is way better than what he showed last night and usually has pretty good cardio. One thing that could have happen is that he may have taken Bisping not seriously, which is a stupid idea since eventhough Bisping is not a killer like some other guys, he is a very hard guy to beat. It takes something similar to DHRH (Dan Henderson's Right Hand) to finish the guy off.
i agree he is definately better than what he showed in this performance but overall he is still pretty overrated i mean his standup isnt the best neither are his takedowns and his jits is good but i think he would lose against most of the better middleweights in the ufc
