Michael Bisping Will Move to Middleweight

One of the most popular UFC fighters is moving down weight classes, according to MMA Junkie. Michael Bisping has fought each of his five fights as a light-heavyweight. He's 4-1 in those fights, losing his first just last month via split decision to Rashad Evans.

Bisping will make the move from 205 to 185, his more natural weight. The benefit, he won't have to fight such big guys at his new weight. Plus, the UFC's middleweight division is arguably the weakest in the company. Middleweight champion Anderson Silva has been dominant and doesn't appear to be dropping the strap anytime soon. Superstar Rich Franklin lost two HUGE fights in DEVASTATING fashion to Silva. Past them, the division is pretty barren from a superstar name standpoint.

Re: Michael Bisping Will Move to Middleweight

The Middleweight division is the UFC weakest, but it is moving up with Bisping and Dan Henderson moving down. Plus the next Ultimate Fighter season to feature middleweights.
