Who would win?
How would they win?(tko, sub, dec)
What time would they win?(1st rd, 2nd rd, 3rd rd)

Do u think one of these fighters deserve a title shot yet, or how many fights do u think they will need to become the number 1 contender?

I'd pick Evans by unanimous decision. Bisping is a pretty well rounded fighter but Evans would probably use his dominant wrestling and striking to control the pace.

rashad by tko in the first. i think rashad should be a number one contender. after he beats tito, then he should fight for the belt.

i think bisping would struggle first round against Evan's wrestling skillsm but then in the second round he would get the knockout

I think rashad would probably grind out a UD, although i also think theres a very good chance bisping would beable to get a sub from the bottom, or a KO. It would be a very close fight IMO, it just depends were it happens. Bispings kick boxing is better than rashads boxing, but rashads wrestling is much more dominant that bispings bjj. In the end, i think it would come down to rashads stregth just being to much for bisping, kinda like swick okami.

Horrible match-up for Bisping. Rashad would take this with his wrestling.

i dont know about Bisping losing in the 1st or 2nd. I think if rashad was taking down like he was against salmon, Bisping would murder him. Bisping's gnp is almost better than tito's now, his cardio is off the charts as well. not sure about rashad's cardio tho.
I'd say 2nd round TKO for Bisping.

Bisping all the way baby, he's twice the athlete, he'd hammer this fight with a tko.

Whoa there, I would not say Bisping is twice the athlete...I mean Rashad is an All-American wrestler and undefeated.

Personally, I think it would be a great fight, but Evans is just to much on the ground and I think he would ride out a decision.

I saw both these guys last saturday, Rashad looks a little smaller, but i guess he does not have to cut as much as Bisping.

Rashad's a little shorter, but I don't think he'd be much smaller in the end... I've heard that Bisbing isn't the biggest LHW, so I think Rashad would have the strength advantage, which could turn into a lot of trouble if applied to his dominating wrestling style...

Bisbing probably has the better standup, but I don't think he can crack through Evans's chin... The guy's got a rock solid head... And if he weathers the storm, he can assert his gameplan...

I got Rashad by TKO late in the 2nd... Be a really good fight though... I'd personally just like to see a TUF champ vs TUF champ fight.

I thnk Evans would win it by TKO, i really liked both of them alot but thnk Rashad's wrestling and just strength would be too much for Bisping to handle if he was to really apply it.... and Evans does have a granite chin in his finally against Imes caught him a couple of good times and it didnt seem to affect him too much.... Evans all the way

I see this fight go to decision. Bisping by split decision. This is a legitament fight and I see this fight happening by the end of the year.

They both seemed like genuine people when I met them, so I dont mind who wins, I guess at the end of the day I will support Bisping cause he is a fellow Brit.
