UFC News: New Octagon Girl, Bisping Wants To Knock Henderson Out

– In an interview with Yahoo! Sports, Michael Bisping accuses UFC 100 opponent Dan Henderson of disrespect leading into their July 11 fight.

Says Bisping, “He’s a two-faced [expletive]. He never said anything to my face (when they were filming TUF 9)…He disgusts me. I’m 18-1, and he said he doesn’t need to train anything but cardio and he would still beat me. He’s taking me way too lightly. When people piss me off, I fight a lot better.”

Though Bisping has struggled with top-level wrestlers in the past (he lost to Rashad Evans and narrowly beat Matt Hamill in a controversial decision), he says he will neutralize Henderson’s takedown advantage with a more aggressive stand-up game.

“In terms of a game plan, I want to knock him out,” said Bisping. “He’s got God awful stand-up. But he’s got a very powerful right hand that everyone talks about, that hasn’t KO’d anyone for a long time, and you can see it coming because he’s so slow with it.”

– UFC has announced an Octagon Girl search for next weekend’s Fan Expo activities. No mention has been made of Rachel Campbell, who disappeared from the sport shortly after winning the televised Octagon Girl search several years ago.
