ESPN UK caught up with Randy Couture recently and asked him whether he felt Michael Bisping deserved a title shot in the middleweight division after his most recent win over Jason "Mayhem" Miller. Here was Couture's response:
"I think he probably does. He's right up there in the top four or five guys in that weight class. You can split hairs on deciding who the No. 1 contender is. He's coming off a great outing against Jason Miller, weathered a storm and had the conditioning and great technique to finish the fight well. He's one of the top guys so why not?"
Bisping may finally get his chance in late 2012 if he can get past Demian Maia, as the winner of their fight at UFC on Fox 2 is expected to get the shot after the winner of Chael Sonnen vs. Mark Munoz on that same card.
