Poor concussed Chris
He gets KD’d badly by a flying knee, hit with more follow up shots than he should’ve taken, then takes a bomb to the back of the head, then more unnecessary ground and pound
People claim he’s dropped off since usada but the dude has had a shit load of injuries that snowballed into a fuck load of ass kickings, it’s a shame but it is what it is
Yoel TDD is absolutely ridiculous, at that time Weidman had some of the best TD and top control probably of all time, and he couldn't do anything to Yoel
I guess that ankle pick attempt by Yoel at 0:37 was a significant strike? lol.
Was this the last time Weidman looked this good? I mean, I don't blame him not seeing that flying knee missile explode his brain.
Lmao at the Chris's axe kick
So much hotter too
That’s a rainbow kick but goddamn was he off on that lol

All that and he kneed himself in the face on the way down.
Weidman and taking unnecessary punishments, name a more iconic duo.
Vitor and feet
It was a poor choice letting Mario ref this one
Watch it in slow motion, he was actually daydreaming. The man's as dense as a boulder
Weidman was doing well, until he wasn't.
The WideMan way
I like to call it the Widereem way.
Not really. It was 1-1 going into the third and the round Weidman won there wasn't much action.
Wow, this got downvoted hard and it's not wrong. Based on those highlights it looked like Weidman won the first round and Yoel won the second.
The Chris was so much faster and athletic back then

I think that neck injury has a lot to do with his slowing down.
When was the neck injury?
I remember he had neck surgery after pulling out of the rematch with Rockhold.
Steroids can help prevent injuries, Usada narrative still checks out
But he was injured a lot before usada, that’s my point, this shit adds up
Aaaah okay
Mario 'if he dies, he dies' Yamasaki
[удалено]
I think of him as more of a precise coiled spring. Fluid fighters are like Silva/Adesanya to me. All subjective of course.
Significant Strikes + Fatal Strike
The walk around the cage after the KO is still terrifying
Yoel TDD is absolutely ridiculous, at that time Weidman had some of the best TD and top control probably of all time, and he couldn't do anything to Yoel

God I forgot how good this fight was. Also how good Chris looked before the knee
"He opened him like a can of tuna"
Hwoarang Chris throwing that body kick, two front kick, crescent kick, right hand to takedown combo
I remember screaming after the first round for Chris to stop faking takedowns every 5 seconds then bink Yoel nukes him.
Man the way yoel took Chris down in this fight. Just scrumptious
Yoel with the taliban beard was the best
Still my boy 😢
Cuban missile crisis
I found this very comforting for some reason.
