Another fight added to UFC on Fox 2
It looks like the card for UFC on Fox 2 is getting another fight. Announced earlier were 2 title eliminators for the UFC Light Heavyweight title and the UFC Middleweight title in bouts between Rashad Evans and Phil Davis, and between Chael Sonnen and Mark Munoz. Now we can add another bout which would have implications in the Middleweight division as at has been announced that Michael Bisping coming fresh of his TUF 14 Finale win against Mayhem Miller will lock horns with jiu-jit-su ace Damian Maia in what would promise to be another entertaining fight.

Is Mayhem Miller getting his walking papers?
UFC President Dana White was quoted in an interview after the TUF 14 Finale, and by the looks of it he wasn't very happy with Jason "Mayhem" Miller's performance in the main event.
He was quoted saying:
“It's one of the most lopsided fights I've ever seen… I'm disagreeing with people. I didn't give Mayhem Miller the first round. He had a quarter of a mount and didn't do a thing,” he told Heavy.com
Asked if Miller will get another chance he said, “I don't know, we'll see. He didn't have a good performance against Georges St. Pierre and he definitely didn't have a good performance against Michael Bisping.”
We will definitely wait on the developments of this story as Dana White already doesn't like Mayhem to begin with, but it is still to early to assume anything as Mayhem put on one of the most entertaining TUF's in recent memory.

Who should Bisping fight Next?
In the aftermath of the TUF 14 Finale, one questions arises and that is who should Michael Bisping fight next?
While it was officially announced that Chael Sonnen and Mark Munoz will be fighting in a title eliminator in the upcoming UFC on Fox 2, it is up to Bisping to get a win over a quality opponent for him to get into title contention or be the next in line.
Some are already clamoring for a rematch with Wanderlei Silva but that was put to rest. Some opponents that come to mind would be Brian Stann, the winner of the Vitor Belfort and Anthony Johnson bout or maybe even the loser of the Middleweight title eliminator. Which ever the case, Bisping himself mentioned that he is not yet ready for the shot a the title, however a win over a quality opponent would certainly put him in line for a title shot.
