Bisping believes St-Pierre would’ve comfortably grappled his way to a decision win against a diminished version of Silva if they'd fought at welterweight in 2010. Bisping then discussed Georges St-Pierre possibly facing the Brazilian MMA great at middleweight between 2015 and 2017. He feels that in the 2015-17 period, St-Pierre – who’d rehabbed old injuries and gained muscle mass during his MMA hiatus since 2013 – would’ve beaten Silva.

Now look, overall, I think it would have been an extremely close fight.” He explained that Georges St-Pierre would’ve utilized a great strategy and implemented several takedowns. However, Anderson Silva’s KO power and creativity would’ve helped him defeat his Canadian foe. Bisping said: “Georges would’ve come in for a takedown; he [GSP] would’ve walked into a knee, an elbow, a punch, a kick - something. And I do think Anderson Silva would’ve been victorious. There it is. In their primes, I think Anderson might’ve got the job done.” Watch Bisping discuss the topic at 13:25 in the video below: What s next for Michael Bisping Anderson Silva and Georges St-Pierre Michael Bisping last fought Kelvin Gastelum in November 2017 and lost via first-round KO.
