The day after his surprising dismantling of Alan Belcher (Pictures) at UFC 83 in Montreal last month, Jason Day (Pictures) told Sherdog.com that he wanted Michael Bisping (Pictures) as his next opponent.
Now, three weeks later, he has gotten his wish.
The UFC officially announced last week that the Canadian middleweight will be replacing Chris Leben (Pictures) as Bisping's opponent in London on June 7.
Leben was sentenced to 35 days in jail last Thursday following a probation violation that stemmed from an old DUI charge. With his release scheduled for less than two weeks before the June 7 bout in London, the UFC pulled Leben from the card and inserted Day. v The 29-year-old, who holds a 17-5 record, told Sherdog.com that he feels all of his hard work over the years is finally paying off.
"Everything is falling into place," Day said. "It's just clicking, and I'm loving it."

You beat me to it. 
I'm not making any predictions on this one. While I want him to win, I just don't know. I guess we'll have to wait and see.

I also don't think Day wins this fight. Bisping looked like an animal in that fight against McCarthy. I don't see a guy like Day being able to slow him down. Definetally wanted to see the Leben/Bisping matchup more.

I do  . Bisping has wrestling on him so hopefully he'll take him down and experience some of that vicious rubber guard. Idk I mean I think Day has a great chance against Bisping but im not making any predictions as well but I feel Day has a great shot to win this fights I mean he did beat Loiseau and then Belcher so I give him a great chance in this fight.
