Ive heard all the arguments for Bisping and how he has "superior striking" but all I see is a brutal KO victory for Leben.

Thank you!!!!
Leben has improved soo much since he lost to Anderson Silva and ditched the red hair, moved to Hawaii and turned his life around. Bisping will not be able to knock Leben out he's gotta chin of granite, however Bisping is gonna do his dumb boxing routine forget to keep his hands up and get KTFO by an overhand right.

Bisping is wayyy too fast for Leben. Leben looked slow against Terry Martin in my opinion and Bisping doesn't get tired in a way that Leben will land one of those wonky hay makers.
Bisping will win, not sure if he can finish.

I dont see your point???
Different weight class, completely different fighter. If you want to look at past losses as to how you see this fight going lets do that shall we.
Bisping - Loss to Rashad Evans (Hamill in most peoples opinion but not on record)
Leben - Anderson Silva (no shame in that) Jason Macdonald Kalib Starnes (The running man) Joe Doerkson
And you would have been adding Terry Martin to this list if he had not of pulled off that last minute lucky swing.
I like both fighters but have to go with Bisping on this one.

he got outstruck by a hybrid wrestler matt hamill, so his "superior striking" isnt an advantage regardless if hamill is LH or not, leben is much better than hamill in striking and bisping hasnt beaten let alone fought anybody that good

You seem very confident.
I'll try not to rub it in too much after UFC 89
