So many fans can't see past former champion Silva who faces the British middleweight at UFC London this weekend.
UFC Fight Pass fans were backing Silva and even his own son Lucas cheekily backed the Brazilian.
Silva might be 40 years old and coming off the back of a 12-month suspension, but he remains the UFC's most imperious champion with 10 straight title defences.
But you can never count out The Count who has been a perennial contender at middleweight and is top in the all-time table of significant strikes landed with 1,285.
Tristar coach Firas Zahabi have once again given his expert analysis of the headline fight between the two men.
Zahabi, who broke down the McGregor vs Dos Anjos fight, believes it's a very dangerous fight for Bisping if he can't deal with Silva's skill levels.
But he believes Bisping's high volume striking style and Silva's trademark counterpunching will make for a brilliant fight.
He says that Bisping will force Silva into a battle which could mean the former champ takes risks.
This is how he sees the fight going...
