Numbers Game examines the deal that sees Michael Del Zotto and Kevin Klein switch places. The Predators Get: D Michael Del Zotto.Anderson Silva’s list of demands almost resulted in a no-show at last week’s public workouts which ended in a face-to-face altercation, claimed Michael Bisping. The Brazilian legend (33-6-1) will come to London to fight Englands UFC flag-bearer but the pair went nose-to-nose and exchanged pleasantries at an event in Los Angeles which Bisping (28-7) insists was nearly ruined by Silvas attitude.In an exclusive interview with Sky Sports, Bisping expressed disgust at Silvas behaviour in front of his adoring fans and insisted his true personality is hidden beneath a respectful exterior. He wasnt going to turn up because he wasnt happy about this, he wasnt happy about that. Finally he turns up with a huge entourage like hes Mike Tyson. Michael Bisping Heres some inside information - the guy is an absolute fake, Bisping said. Up until the very last minute, Anderson wasnt going to show up at the open workouts. I know this from very reliable inside-information.He wasnt going to turn up because he wasnt happy about this, he wasnt happy about that. Finally he turns up with a huge entourage like hes Mike Tyson.He gets in the cage with 20 people which was misdirection to take the attention off himself. Hes posing for photos acting like butter wouldnt melt. Bisping (right) is Englands most successful UFC fighter Michael Bisping: The stats Record: 28-7 15 KOs, 4 submissions Age: 36 Height/Reach: 62 / 75 He was passive-aggressive and condescending to me but I couldnt care less because were going to fight. But then afterwards, his manager is calling my coach to ask me not to [criticise Anderson].The guy is a fake who can speak English but chooses to use a translator. He showed me that hes too confident at the open workouts by messing around with his friends. Me? I had a solid workout, Im not messing about.Silva, 40, is a former middleweight champion who owns all-time UFC records with 16 consecutive victories and 14 finishes. He is widely regarded as one of the sports iconic competitors. Bispings ups and downs Sky Sports reflect on his career Silva (right) is a dangerous striker with kicks, knees and punches But Lancashires Bisping, 36, believes Silva has benefitted from a slew of outmatched and fearful opponents who were broken by the reputation that precedes the Brazilian.ddddddddddddHe hasnt fought anybody that has my speed or my volume, he said. He hasnt fought anybody thats as well-rounded as I am - I can fight with him on the feet and take him down. I implement a lot of movement and footwork.Hes fought a lot of mediocre opponents, guys that were terrified of him and were beaten before they started. They were looking for a way out, which is something we see in sports. Bisping (left) has won two in a row since losing to current champion Luke Rockhold I never bought into his aura of invincibility, I looked at him as someone who had skills and finishing ability - but he has poor boxing, zero takedown defence, and he isnt very strong.Yes, I also have to be wary of his finishing ability but Im stronger, younger, fitter and better looking so what more can I ask for?Remarkably Bisping and Silva debuted in the worlds biggest MMA organisation a decade ago, just days apart, yet have never crossed paths despite sharing the middleweight division for the majority of that time. Silva (right) has stopped more opponents than anybody else in UFC history Anderson Silva: The stats Record: 33-6-1 20 KOs, 6 submissions Age: 40 Height/Reach: 62 / 77 Although Silva no longer rules as divisional champion, No 6 ranked contender Bisping believes his lifetimes work will be justified with a victory when they finally fight at The O2 Arena.Weve had parallel careers for 10 years and Ive wanted to fight him on a number of occasions, Bisping said. Of course I wanted him when he was he champion and hes no longer he champion. That said, Ive always said I could beat Anderson because my style matches up very well with him.I finally have the chance to back up what Ive been saying for years in the biggest UFC fight on British soil. Its a defining moment in my legacy. Also See: Bispings ups and downs UFC ' ' '
