At UFC70 this weekend there is a budding superstar in Michael “The Count” Bisping. He’s taking on UFC journeyman Elvis Sinosic in front of his home crowd in Manchester England. Bisping is the winner of TUF 3 and has an amazing MMA record of 13-0.
As a UK native, he is beloved by his countrymen and regarded as the one of the best up and coming 205 pounders in the UFC. His two UFC fights have both ended in TKO victories. Considered a fearless striker, we can probably anticipate a serious slugfest this Saturday.
Elvis Sinosic on the other hand is coming off the following five losses in a row.
- UFC57 - Alessio Sakara by Unanimous Decision
- UFC55 - Forrest Griffin by Technical Knock Out at 3:22 of Round 1
- UFC38 - Renato Sobral by Unanimous Decision
- UFC36 - Evan Tanner by Technical Knock Out at 2:06 of Round 1
- UFC32 - Tito Ortiz by Referee Stoppage at 3:32 of Round 1
Sinosic is being pegged as a lamb to the slaughter as he doesn’t fare well against strikers, but this is the UFC, just ask Matt Serra, and Randy Couture.
This looks to be Sinosic’s last opportunity to resurrect his UFC career, although some people think it should have been over a long time ago.

5 losses in a row, how does he even DESERVE this fight.
Come on Dana give “The Count” some real competition.
