Dana White just announced via Twitter that Mark Munoz, who was scheduled to fight Chael Sonnen for the no.1 contender, has been injured and forced to pull out of the bout. Sonnen will now instead fight British middleweight Michael Bisping, with the winner earning a fight against middleweight champion Anderson Silva. The bout will serve as the co-main event for the UFC on FOX event, January 28th.

Bisping was scheduled to compete on the same card against former title challenger Demian Maia. It is unclear at this time if Maia will receive a replacement opponent.

Champion Anderson Silva is expected to be healthy soon, and a June event in Brazil is rumored to be where the winner of Sonnen/Bisping will square off with the champion.

Cant wait to see what Chael has to say about Bisping. LOL.

 

I dont see Bisping standing a chance against him OR Anderson.

I would personally like to thank the UFC Gods for bringing us this fight.   I hope Chael really dishes it out and then makes a highlight real like Hendo.

Bruce took the words right out of my mouth.

I hope Micheal "I am the 2nd highest paid in the UFC because I am a cocky Brit being used by the UFC to sell tickets in England" Bisping gets demolished!

What?!  He's the 2nd highest paid fighter in the UFC??  Seriously?  If true, that is insane.
