Bisping's coach puts paid to the rumors and reveals training plans for bout with Matt Hamill...

Wolfslair Gym's Dave Jackson, coach of Michael Bisping, scotched rumors that "The Count" would be moving down to the middleweight division. In response to the question, Dave exclusively told 411mania: "Mike is 6'2" and walks round a lot heavier than 205lbs. He cuts to 205 for his fights. There is no plan to drop down to 185 in the foreseeable future."

Dave also revealed that Michael will depart for California on Monday to train with current UFC Light Heavyweight champion Quinton "Rampage" Jackson, as both men seek to prepare for the biggest fights of their career to date at UFC 75 on September 8th in London.
