Michael Bisping is a huge part of the UFC’s success overseas. An “Ultimate Fighter” winning fighter and coach, as well as a coach on the upcoming “The Ultimate Fighter” on Spike TV (the show’s last season in both its current form and on Spike TV), Bisping appears to be counted on for the long term by Zuffa brass. How do we know this?
He just signed an eight fight extension with the UFC, per MMA Junkie.
Bipsing, who coaches against “Bully Beatdown” host and Strikeforce middleweight Jason “Mayhem” Miller on the show which starts on September 21, will meet Miller at The Ultimate Fighter 14 Finale this December 3 at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, NV. The winner is rumored to have a potential title shot against reigning middlweight champion Anderson Silva waiting for him.
