I think Bisping will do exactly the same to Maia as he did to Miller. Maia hasnt submitted anyone in 3 years, and he went to a decision the last 6 fights in a row.
Plus Bisping hasnt been submitted ever. I'd have preferred to see him against Munoz.
Munoz would be the ultimate horrible fight for him! I know he's good at getting back to his feet, but I couldn't see him doing it against Munoz!

Its a good match up for Bisping as he always seems to do well against jiu jitsu guys but id keep this one standing for as long as possible as Maias ground game is superb...also i think it will be an advantage with such a quick turn around in fight time.he wasnt happy with the performance against miller and to be honest i dont think he looked as sharp as he has in recent fights...its a big fight for him and could get him a title shot if he can put in a quality performance.
If he doesnt get careless on the ground with him like sonnen did then he should win this one i think.

Only if you're not squeamish! I will usually watch any sporting injury, but after the initial time of seeing it live I could not bare to look again, that was minging!
Temptation, greets you like your naughty mate,
The one that used to get you in bother,
But one that you could never bring yourself to hate.
