MMA Discussion 7/2/2013 - Silva vs Weidman

 It's time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm ready to just throw money @ the screen for 5 full rounds.
On the undercard (FX) we have the return of Chris Leben, Edson Barboza & Gonzaga.
On the main card the Co-Main event will be Edgar vs Oliveira & the Main event is Anderson Silva vs Chris Weidman.  My body is not ready.


Why Anderson Silva Wins?
Striking & Taunts
Look @ what he's done to every opponent.  Even Chael Sonnen who had the best chance of beating him was submitted & tko'ed in both of their fights.  His striking will definitely be key in this fight even though I believe Weidman will try for the takedown & grind for 5 rounds. I don't know how he will react to Silva's striking?  Will he turtle up, reposition himself or strike back? 

Why Weidman will win?
Wrestling & BJJ

He's an All-American wrestler which is probably Silva's biggest weakness.  Also his BJJ is among the elite levels so anything on the ground that Silva throws @ him he will defend pretty well.  I don't think we will see any 5th round triangles from Silva in this fight.  A lot of fighters are backing Weidman including GSP who said "Weidman will win this fight".  This was almost the exact reaction Silva gave

Your winner?
 Even though I feel Anderson Silva will come away with the victory, I believe Chris Weidman is the future of this division.   I don't think that UFC 162 will be his night to shine but I could be wrong.  I mean I thought "The Wicker Man" was going to be an amazing movie.....


Post Fight Reactions from Me.

JCVD hanging out with GSP

Apparently Van Damme took GSP out to dinner & showed him some moves.




They went dancing later that night.
