Bisping Rips Stann: I'd Rather Get KO'ed by Dan Henderson Than Steve Cantwell

UFC middleweight Michael Bisping isn't known to pull his punches in or out of the cage, showcasing the former by taking a shot at upcoming opponent Brian Stann.

The British fighter wrote in a blog post for Yahoo! Sports:

"

Getting beat by Dan Henderson, who's knocked out some of the best fighters in the world from welterweight to heavyweight, isn't that disgraceful - especially when you consider Stann was stopped by Steve Cantwell.

"

"The Count" is an impressive 22-4 in his professional mixed martial arts career and Henderson is the only man who has been able to finish him via a highlight reel-worthy knockout that will likely haunt him for the rest of his career. 

Still, "The All-American" suffered a often forgotten about TKO loss at the hands of Steve "The Robot" Cantwell back at WEC 35, where Cantwell won the WEC light heavyweight title from Stann. 

To be fair, Stann did win a rematch via unanimous decision at UFC Fight Night 19 in Sept. 2009.

Bisping also mocked Stann for using a "cliche" line to describe his game plan for their upcoming UFC 152 fight. 

"

Stann has said he "wants to test my chin." A nice line from Captain Cliché there but, you know what, of course he does. He's a big puncher and his only chance of winning this is landing some bombs and knocking me out ... But I'm going to test his chin, too, and I'm a lot faster and more accurate than he is. To be honest, I have a boatload more strikes available to me and I think Stann's chin is a lot more suspect than mine.

"

The former "Ultimate Fighter" went on to say that he won't only be the better striker, but that he has the advantages in the wrestling and jiu-jitsu department as well. 

Additionally, Bisping acknowledged that Stann was one of "the best fighters in the division," however, The Count believes this is "my fight to lose." 

Will Bisping put on a clinic and make short work of Stann, or will the former Marine be able to pull off a big upset?
