Chael Sonnen's trainer: Bisping breaks easily, he's mentally weak
Posted on January 24, 2012, 05:28 PM by Trent Reinsmith
UFC Middleweight competitors Chael Sonnen and Michael Bisping will face off at Chicago’s United Center on Saturday night when the promotion presents UFC on FOX 2. In a somewhat unexpected turn, Sonnen has mostly taken the high road in the days leading up to this event, not engaging in a great deal of the trash talk that has almost become expected of Sonnen.
While Sonnen has not engaged in a war of words with Bisping, members of his camp have picked up the gauntlet, namely Sonnen’s trainer Scott McQuary, “We were actually kind of happy(getting the Bisping fight.) We weren't really concerned at all. In a way, we thought this wasn't that much different than the Brian Stann fight, except Stann hits a hell of a lot harder...Bisping breaks easily. I think he's mentally weak. Watch how he fought Dan Henderson. I think he was totally intimidated. And I think he's going to be intimidated by Chael too...Chael is such a hard worker and he has such a fast pace. Bisping is much more lackadaisical. He likes to throw a jab, throw a kick, keep his distance. He's not going to be able to keep up the pace Chael forces. Whether on the ground or standing." – for more see BleacherReport.com
What do you think LowKick’ers, does Bisping stand a chance against Sonnen or is McQuary correct in his analysis?

Well.....but......ok
Mentally weak? You crazy? Bisping has to much confidence.
Many times the projection of overt confidence is there to compensate for a weakness in the mind.
Agreed. Once hit hard in the face or taken down and can't get up the confidence falls to the side and he has no mental toughness to carry him through.
Doesn't everyone lose confidence when placed in those two shitty scenarios? Well everyone except Frankie.
No, look at Joe Stephensen in the fight with BJ Penn. Beaten up but continues to fight like a demon. Same with Nick Diaz or Chael Sonnen against Silva. Faces beaten up be continue to go like made.
Look at Bisping - 1 little H-Bomb from Henderson and he fold up (just kidding) ;-)
Wow, this is like the lamest trash talk ever. I think Chael's alternating between practicing his triangle defense and laughing at his trainers.
Spitsping will lose to another Team Quest fighter and get the good old American ass whipping.

Team Quest is gonna get served a bowl of british beat down!
Up the ante loser gets kicked in the nuts with no cup.
Advantage Chael - 1 nut, half the pain.
This is what I love about LowKick. All Chael, All the time. 24/7 Chael. A Chavanche of articles. A Chaelathon of info. A Chaelenium of excitement. A...a...aw forget it.
We get the picture Bruce. Why not just bring him back to the site and get on with the witty banter we've all come to expect from your version of Chael. This is the prime time for rebuttal to these nasty remarks that the terrible Bisbing is unleashing upon Sonnen.
"Bisping" is the sound his balls will make when I toss them into the ice bucket at ringside on Saturday. Look at all the pictures of this pretty boy on this site. Never a hair out of place. I'll give him this, he is the prettiest fighter in the UFC. I actually heard his is Cyborg's sister and if you look at his shorts that's no ball hanging out the crotch that's a camel toe.
WWCS. What would Chael say? You can't just let him say these things about Chael without some kind of response Bruce!! What would your Chael say if that nasty Bisbing called him a one nut wonder boy?
Chael "The Pendulum" Sonnen
Why are are a bunch of bitches weaking me? I posted a very funny video and you weak me? Come on get a sense of humor Jeez!
Its hard to figure out sometimes isn't it. Drives me crazy sometimes.
I wonder what Bisping will use as an excuse when he gets beat up for fifteen minutes?
Going to be a good fight , still i think Sonnen wil destroy Bisping .. when you get taken down by Miller .. and then you have to fight a WORLD class wrestler like Sonnen you are getting taken down 100% sure .. i think this fight wil be the same like the fight with Stann ..
I think Bisping will ko him stood up or submit him from his back ...sonnen has a shoddy sub defence .
As much as I dislike Bisping it is his mental toughness and confidence that keeps him in a lot of fights and is the main reason he has been successful.
Physically though he has peaked in my opinion and is "pretty decent" at all aspects of the sport, but he is not going to really get any better at any of them. I don't see him "mentally breaking" to any oppponent, unless he gets in the cage with Silva, who has demoralized every opponent, except for Sonnen.
Sonnen will most likely be too much for him on the ground if that's where the fight goes (which it should if Sonnen gets his way).
i hope chael sonnen beats the british out of michael bisping. when he gets up he will be speaking some other language that know one even recognizes.
