Michael Bisping Leaves Wolfslair Academy
Michael Bisping and Wolfslair MMA Academy are no more.
The news was confirmed to MMAJunkie on Thursday that the The Ultimate Fighter Season 3 winner had parted ways with his longtime camp.
The source refused to go into any further detail about the situation.
Bisping is a proven top-10 ranked middleweight, but despite much success under the UFC banner, he has yet to defeat an upper-echelon opponent.
It's like an invisible hump that he can't seem to hurdle. In bouts against elite-level opposition, Bisping has been defeated by Rashad Evans, Dan Henderson, Chael Sonnen and Wanderlei Silva.
In his most recent outing, Bisping put on a rather impressive performance as an underdog against Sonnen. In the end, Uncle Chael walked away with the unanimous decision, but no one would've been shocked if the decision had gone the other way.
At Wolfslair, Bisping's teammates consisted of former UFC light heavyweight champion Quinton "Rampage" Jackson and Cheick Kongo. A new camp could be the Brit's way of shaking things up in hopes of taking his fight game to new heights.
The loss to Sonnen has to really sting considering Bisping was a win away from earning a UFC title shot against Anderson Silva.
There isn't any word yet on where Bisping plans to make his new home, but recently, he relocated to Huntington Beach, Calif. to train with Brady Fink and Tiki Ghosn.
One of the original members of Team Punishment, Ghosn has trained with the likes of Jackson, Tito Ortiz and B.J. Penn.
