Mayhem Miller is 'sh*tting his pants' - Bisping

Michael Bisping has laughed off Jason Miller's spy claims going into their TUF 14 Finale encounter, insisting he can only lose to Miller if he makes a "rookie mistake".

Miller has made claims that Bisping's camp have been offering up information ahead of Saturday's fight, insisting he knows everything about the Brit's preparations. The claim comes not long after Bisping's team-mate Rampage Jackson accused Jon Jones of spying ahead of UFC 135.

Bisping finds the whole situation hilarious though, insisting that - much like Jorge Rivera - all of Miller's pre-fight tactics are only designed to deflect the fact he is in big trouble.

"I think he's sh*tting his pants a little bit," Bisping told ESPN. "He's making videos and he's trying to claim my training camp is telling him loads of stuff about my training, it's b***ocks. He's just trying to unsettle my camp.

"I've got the better stand-up, I'm the bigger guy, I'm more athletic, I've got better cardio, better wrestling ... the only thing he's got is a better offensive ground game, but my defensive ground game will easily see him off."

The last time Bisping fought in a climax to a TUF season was when he lost to Dan Henderson, getting knocked out after making the mistake of circling into Hendo's big right hand. And Bisping admits errors are the only thing he fears going into Saturday's clash with Miller.

"I really don't see how I lose this fight unless I make a stupid mistake," said the Brit. "So long as I don't make a rookie mistake like giving up my back ... I've had a great camp, I've been working with big guys with great ground games and this is my fight to win."
