twiztor Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 i'm good either way. if he fights Conor again in 6 months in a big rematch, that's cool. dude's been the champ forever and it's his first loss in 10 years. totally deserves it. if he gets another fight against a top 10 guy in the interim, with the winner potentially getting a title shot, that's fine too. He was decisively knocked out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVileOne Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Thing is, UFC has been granting so many immediate rematches to former champions after dominant, one-sided losses that Jose Aldo has a pretty good case for one now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Natural Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Weidman must be still kicking himself about the spinning kick. Didn't he learn from Nick Diaz about that spinning shit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supremebve Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Weidman must be still kicking himself about the spinning kick. Didn't he learn from Nick Diaz about that spinning shit? I think the spinning kick thing is overstated. He tried something and it didn't work, it happens in every single fight. The answer can't be to fight conservatively and hope nothing bad happens. He was in a close fight and took a risk to see if he could turn the tide of the fight. He could have fought cautiously and still lost, and then we'd be sitting here talking about how he should have tried something to turn the tide. I hope he's not kicking himself for being agressive and trying to win a fight, despite the fact that it didn't work out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVileOne Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 I think Weidman was losing that fight regardless. Rockhold was messing him up with those kicks, and Weidman looked like he was moving in slow motion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
