UFC on FX 7: Belfort vs. Bisping is almost upon us, and the hype is really starting to pick up for this very important main event bout. The staredown after the press conference between Bisping and Belfort was even more intense than we expected it to be, and now, we’re just waiting for these two warriors to step into the cage.
They’ll do so on Friday night in the main event on FX. The middleweights are believed to be in somewhat of a middleweight contendership bout, which adds to the importance of the fight. If Bisping wins, most expect that he will earn a UFC title fight against Anderson Silva.

These questions have always held Bisping back, and he’ll hope to answer them on Saturday night.
Here are the five most important questions that we have about Michael Bisping going into his fight against Vitor Belfort.
