On February 27th Michael Bisping and Anderson Silva will square off in a highly anticipated match of veterans. Both men have been at the top of the UFC’s middleweight division for quite some time, however have yet to fight one another. While Silva reigned as the king of the middleweight division for nearly 10 years, Bisping was always just shy of a title shot.

On February 27th he will finally get the chance to fight Silva and get his name in the title mix once again.

Following his heated verbal exchange with Silva at the ‘UFC London’ early open workouts, Bisping spoke to media members to discuss how he sees the fight going.

MMAMania has the transcription:

“I’m going to handle it the old-fashioned way by sticking this and this [fists] right in his face. This shin will connect with his chin [and] he will go down. It doesn’t matter which way he stands. He could stand southpaw, he could stand orthodox … he could stand on his head for all I care. It doesn’t matter. He’s coming over to England — my home — and he’s going to lose. It’s as simple as that. He’s a little bit older. He’s under a lot of pressure; a little bit of scrutiny and I think it will affect him.”
