FanHouse Michael Bisping

On this week's edition of The MMA Hour, we were first joined by UFC middleweight star Michael Bisping. "The Count" who is gearing up for his fight against Denis Kang at UFC 105 on Nov. 14, talked about putting his recent knockout loss to Dan Henderson behind him and why so many fighters and fans love to hate him.

Later in the show, we talked to play-by-play announcer Gus Johnson, who will be calling Saturday night's Strikeforce card on CBS. Johnson discussed MMA's rise in popularity and whether Fedor Emelianenko can become a star in the United States. MDS and I also previewed some of the storylines heading into Saturday's event. Listen to the show below.

Negotiations between the UFC and Dan Henderson are more than stalled, they are apparently "done."

"You never know what's going to happen, we'll see what happens in time," UFC president Dana White told Raw Vegas on Saturday. "But as of right now, yeah, negotiations are done."

Former champ Randy Couture returns to light heavyweight at UFC 105 in a main event fight against Brandon Vera on Nov. 14 at the MEN Arena in England.

Also on the card, Mike Swick fights for a possible welterweight title shot taking on Dan Hardy and Michael Bisping looks to get back on the winning track in a middleweight bout against Denis Kang.

Below is the fight card.

The UFC announced Tuesday the complete lineup for UFC 105 taking place Nov. 14 at the M.E.N. Arena in Manchester, England.

In the main event, Randy Couture (16-10) moves back down to light heavyweight against fellow weight class hopper Brandon Vera (11-3).

In other featured bouts, the UK will be well-represented with Michael Bisping (18-2) looking to bounce back from his UFC 100 loss and Dan Hardy (22-6) aiming to position himself closer to the welterweight title in a fight against top contender Mike Swick (14-2).

Michael Bisping's first fight back from his knockout loss to Dan Henderson at UFC 100 will be against Denis Kang at UFC 105 on Nov. 14 at the MEN Arena in Manchester, England, the UFC confirmed Tuesday.

Fellow Brit Dan Hardy has also been confirmed for the event in a welterweight tilt versus undefeated Korean superstar Dong Hyun Kim.

Bisping and Hardy are only the first two confirmed of many British fighters expected for the UFC 105 card with a main event still to be announced. The Ultimate Fighter 9 winners Ross Pearson and James Wilks are also expected to compete.

PHILADELPHIA -- Anderson Silva walked into UFC 101 surrounded by boos, a goat, and left bathed in adulation, the G.O.A.T., or at least something close.

Needing a highlight-reel worthy performance to quiet the sudden doubts emanating from two straight lackluster performances, Silva -- fighting for only the second time at 205 pounds -- toyed with former UFC light heavyweight champion Forrest Griffin before putting him away with a stunning short right in just 3:23 of the first round.

Dan Henderson has been criticized in some quarters for punching an unconscious Michael Bisping at the end of their fight at UFC 100, and then saying he landed the punch just to shut Bisping up. But Bisping says if he'd had the opportunity, he would have done the exact same thing to Henderson.

Our new UFC twitter mailbag features questions about UFC welterweight Jon Fitch, which UFC fighters could beat Fedor Emelianenko, and my prediction of which UFC champion will be the next to lose his belt. But we start with the brutal knockout at UFC 100.

LAS VEGAS -- The UFC fell just shy of its best-ever Nevada gate, with 11,000 fans spending $5.1 million at the box office in ticket sales for UFC 100 at the Mandalay Bay Events Center.

Dan Henderson landed one of the most brutal knockout punches in the history of the Ultimate Fighting Championship when he knocked Michael Bisping out cold Saturday night at UFC 100.

Throughout the fight, Henderson looked like he was just waiting to unleash one hard punch with his right hand, and after missing several times in the first round, he finally landed that punch in the second. The punch itself knocked Bisping unconscious, but Henderson jumped on him and landed yet another punch to Bisping's face before the referee could step in and stop it.
