Leben and Bisping will exchange during round 1. then midway through round 2 bisping will come with a fury of punchs and finish leben. possibly with knees

I dont think Bisping is all that great of a striker and I think it showed against tougher opponents. Its my opinion Leban who is known as hard to KO will walk through Bisping's punchs and leave him unconscious with a "Chris was here" tatoo on his azz.
Seriously though, I dont think this is a good fight for Bisping because everything he dose I think Leban dose better.

Bisping doesn't even resemble the fighter he was at 205. He just seems to be more tenacious and savage. He has the power to put Leben away. If Leben is able to walk through Bisping's combinations then he could potentially hurt him.
I just don't think Bisping is going to let him land inside. Bisping will use the clinch and knees to the body everytime Leben closes the distance and finish him the second with a flury on the ground.

Who has bisbing finished with a chin like Lebens? Leben has fought and beat guys who hit harder than Bisping before. this is just my opinion (cote, martin,sakara) Leben has only been knocked out once! and that was by silva.

On the feet Bisping will probly get rocked a lot and he doesnt have great takedowns while Leben has decent takedown defense so id think most of this fight will be fought standing. If Bisping wants to win on the feet he needs to stick to a jab and staying on the outside for the first 2 rounds then focus on taking Leben down in the 3rd when he is gassed, if he continually gets in Lebens range Bisping is going night night.
Im picking Leben by KO as of right now

Really good break down brother, i see this fight going much the same way. If he can't keep to the same type of game plan you outlined here i see him being tucked in for an early bed time with Leben's left hand.

Bisping will not win this fight. His only chance would be to get it onto the ground, but Leben has great Takedown defence. If this fight stays on the feet i see Bisping getting knocked out by the middle of the second round.

If I understand you correctly you're saying that Leben can absorb punishment better than Bisping can dish it out?
If you're basing that op mostly on Bisping's LHW fights then it may surprise you when Leben gets KO'ed by a middleweight version of The Count

Starnes out wrestled him and won a UD and I think Bisping can do that as well. Leben got taken down a number of times against Martin as well so I really have to disagree his take down defense is great.....mediocre at the start of the fight and as the fight goes on it gets worse.

I think Leben will come out trying to take Bisping's head off early, but in the end, Bisping's technicality will prevail.

technicality is definetly not the right word here man. Leben is a better fighter than Bisping almost anywhere this fight goes. Leben by KO late first or early second.
