Michael Bisping headed into UFC on FX 7 with a chance to earn a title shot against Anderson Silva. With a knockout loss to Vitor Belfort, Bisping’s hopes of making that fight come to fruition were shattered.
Instead, Belfort is once again one of the top contenders in the middleweight division, though he asked for a rematch with light heavyweight champion Jon Jones in his post-fight interview during the FX-aired event.
With two losses in his past three fights, Bisping will have to work his way back up the 185-pound ladder. So, let’s take a look at who he and the rest of the UFC on FX 7 fighters should compete against next.
