Bisping vs Hamill...the fight is on!

Remember the last report about the upcoming UFC #75 fight in London with Michael Bisping and that Ken Shamrock could be that fighter? It has been confirmed, in a round about way perhaps, that this rumor is nothing more than a sick rumor with thanks to Loretta Hunt of The Fight Network. Who would in his sick mind to come out of retirement just to fight a virtual newcomer in the UFC fight? I think a bit of common sense got lost in there somehow and I just couldn't see how that could happen. Perhaps a bigger or more well known opponent with more experience but Bisping?

Matt Hamill confirmed to me in his email last night that he has signed a contract to fight Michael Bisping on September 8 at London. So, apparently the fight is on. Although, admittedly I'm not even sure if there is a clause in the contract saying that the UFC has the right to an option to change fighters before the fight date. A contract to fight Bisping is still a contract. Right?

Good luck to Matt Hamill!
