5 MMA fighters who could be choked out by Samoa Joe

#2 Michael Bisping

The Count better hope that Joe doesn't get him in a choke like Rockhold did

Now, we come into the elite territory. "The Count” Michael Bisping is no joke when it comes to UFC fighters. He is without a shadow of a doubt, one of the most accomplished fighters on the roster today and he is the Middleweight Champion for a reason. There is absolutely no guarantee that Samoa Joe will be able to take out Bisping, but there is a good chance.

There are two major factors for this, the first of which is Bisping's pillow hands. For a guy fighting in Middleweight against the likes of Luke Rockhold, Yoel Romero, Chris Weidman, and Gegard Mousasi, "The Count's" punching power isn't on that elite level. This is something which works tremendously to Joe's advantage.

The second factor is Bisping's inexperience with wrestling. The Englishman had no experience with wrestling before his days as an MMA fighter and while he has certainly improved, this combined with his below-par punching power gives Samoa Joe a very good chance of choking Michael Bisping out.
