The MMA Thread: DON'T ASK 4 STREAMS & NO GIFS- Cannonier, Imavov, Reyes, Rosas on NOW

Rusty: Gentleman's bet.

Like the confidence from Davis, but hope he's not awaking a sleeping beast.

Three straight wins. Another over Shogun deems a title shot with heavy competition.

Team NBK. But I like T-Wood to a lesser extent. Condit decision or late finish. Better cardio, championship experience, well-rounded minus wrestling.
 
If anderson can do what cain did to jds in their last fight, that can be a big statement. Just no bs like last time, please.
 
i think weidman has a legitimate chance at beating silva. weidman is just a bad match up for him.
pulling for the goat tho, second round tko.

definitely...weidman's confidence has to be on a million. other than the 1st Sonnen fight everyone else has come in timid and then gets overwhelmed by Anderson's antics. Weidman was mad poised and kept engaging, i think he has a shot at winning
 
So ready for next week! Got a surprise party that same night and none of the people care for MMA but me so I told them I'll pay for the damn PPV bc I have to watch this lol.
 
There's a countdown on Christmas Eve on fox sports 1 at 7 pm pacific time. No primetime treatment for the card though, Dana said it's getting pretty expensive
 
Anderson has to win :{

If he beats Anderson again I can respect him.

Probably gonna go watch it a bdubs. UFC and wings :hat and the girls at the location near me :smokin
 
Anderson Silva v Chris Weidman I is on the UFC's Youtube channel. It's always weird watching fights again from a while ago. I had forgotten the first round wasn't just Anderson fooling around clowning. Weidman actually took him down and controlled the round pretty well, weathered Anderson's flurries. I didn't remember it like that.

just rewatched the fight as well. silva stricking was lighting fast compares to weidman right before he got knock the f' out :{
 
I called the first Weidman upset, but I'd be shocked if he defends the strap.

I don't see anything other than a Spider KO.
 
Can't wait for Saturday.

I wonder if Anderson will do his usual shtick, given what happen the last time with Weidman.

Yeah it looked just like all of anderson's other fights except weidman was the only one to make him pay for the showboating. I also remember silva's striking looking great as usual. This is why I want him to end the fight early and remind the world he can put you to sleep with the quickness.
 
Weidman never looked dazed or anything or even overwhelmed. He weathered the storms and kept his cool.

With that said I give the slight edge to Anderson, but just like last fight I'm not going to write off Weidman like mostly everyone else did.
 
Weidman ain't land nothing that Anderson didn't serve up to him on the feet.

That being said he did maul him on the ground in the 1st round.

Hopefully this fight tuns out to be a more true representation of their abilities.

IDK if maul is the correct word...
 
I want to see a motivated Spider make a statement hopefully he learned from his mistake and will leave the bs at the gate Weidman already showed if you come in there playing him like a chump you'll be taking a nap, Weidman's confidence should be thru the roof
 
Watched the flashback show on FS1 last night, got me hyped up for the rematch.

Weidman was landing solid shots on the ground before he went for the sub.

Expecting Anderson to come out showboating again and catch Weidman to avenge his loss.
 
Been ready for this fight since the first one :{

Anderson via decapitation Saturday night. It ends no other way. Heading out to bdubs with some friends, it's gonna be hectic there as usual, especially during a Anderson fight.

Anderson can't go out like this, if he loses twice to Weidman it'd ruin his whole legacy to me. Should it ruin his legacy? Hell no, but to me it would. Come on spider, gonna need you to come with it. I still want him to go after Jon jones
 
Anderson is 38 and has been fighting for a loooooooooong time. No way would another loss ruin his legacy IMO. Weidman is the future at MW whether he beats Anderson again or not.

In all fairness he said to him personally it would ruin Anderson's legacy.

To me it wouldn't. Like above said he's 38 and defended that title for waaay too long. Now if he keeps fighting after and keeps getting smoked then maybe yeah.
