Style & speed-wise, I thought Bisping looked really good, looked sharp.
It wasn't really the best gage of how well he will do against the rest of the 185ers, since McCarthy executed the 2nd most bizarre gameplan of the night (right behind Starnes' Velodrome strategy). I mean near armbar aside, it was tough for Bisping to not be sharp and accurate, when he was essentially teeing off on a stationary target for a good portion of the time.
I'd really like to see how he fares against someone like MacDonald now, just to see how he handles someone who is a little more proven on the ground and with submissions in the UFC. Actually...Bisping vs. Leben would be one helluva barn burner that I wouldn't mind seeing.
