Bisping vs. Leben signed for October UK fight

By Jim Murphy June 27th, 2008

Michael Bisping will finally get a shot at Chris Leben, assuming that Leben doesn’t again run afoul of law enforcement authorities here in the Rose City:

Michael Bisping will get his fight with Chris Leben, it will happen in England, and it will be spectacular. That was the message of UK UFC president Marshall Zelaznik on Setanta Sports’ “Ultimate Talk� show on Thursday night.

Bisping is obviously a huge draw in England and Leben is someone who’ll stand and bang with him. Its made to order to make him an even bigger star in the UK and potentially set up a fight against Anderson Silva. Word on the streets is that Silva will fight Yushin Okami on this card, which sounds like they’re wanting to get ‘The Spider’ in front of the UK fans in advance of a forthcoming fight with Bisping.
