I would!
It is an odd situation at the minute. I would think the top fighters are Stann, Munoz, Weidman, Bisping and Belfort. And of course Sonnen.
But as you say, 3 of that group have recent losses, 2 others face each other soon, and the 6th has a loss on the horizon when he faces Silva again!

Not only Marquardt...
If Bisping beats anyone on that list then I would say he has earned the shot.
Bisping would jab and run to a decision against Weidman and Munoz and maybe Stann (unless he got KOd) He'd lose another decision to Sonnen and would actually be killed by Belfort. The most interesting fight would be Stann. That one could go either way IMO.
If actually give him a better chance against Weidman.
The thing with Munoz and Stann is that they have serious power. Bisping has been tagged in a few fights recently. Dan Miller caught him a few times. Kang dropped him, as did Wanderlei.
I'm not sure that Bisping could avoid the power shot for the full 3 or 5 rounds. Agree on Belfort, not many are better technical strikers than Bisping, Belfort and Silva are though.
I think he could against Munoz because he's sloppy and fades as the fight goes on. I could actually see Bisping stopping him late in the fight if it was a 5 rounder.
Stann is a much sharper striker than Munoz and would likely land some serious shots on Bisping at some point. I think Bisping might try to take Stann down if they fought.
UFC ring girls is there a need for them?I'm all for lady's looking good but in this day and age I'm not sure it does the sport any favours.. Anyway reason I bring this up is that brittney ( I think ) was on tuf brazil during coaches challenge for no reason whatsoever in the same ring attire.
The best bit is when they do the 'over the shoulder, down the cleavage' shot of Brittney swiping through the pages of an iPad to show the various website addresses. Not the best bit of promotion for their sites when you have the web address on the right of the screen and Brittney's puppies on the left.
Lol i forgot about that data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
