Chris is gonna get slept or break his leg again
Won't lie. The way Chris is talking has me feeling like he's gonna lose bad…. I don't like him for wat he did to Silva but I respect the sport enuf to respect what Chris has done. I hope he wins but again. I jus get the vibe off Chris that he's gonna lose by KO. Anyone else agree?
This interview was pure comedy
Man Chris I love you but you're career was beating up nobodies and halfway out the door Brazilians, once you ran into Yoel and Luke rockhold it kind of showed us where you were.. your on the prelims cuz nobody really cares about you like that anymore.. you were a semi high-level wrestling brute and those guys are everywhere now
You can do it Chris. Literally over 50% of the people in the comments these days weren’t even paying attention to mma when he was champ and finishing everyone. Can’t wait for the fight
HE'S STILL MY BOY
UFC messed up big time. Chris Weidman is super underrated. Prelim, Are u shitting me. Mark my word, he will be champ with right gyno!
“I elbowed you because that wasn’t my leg you grabbed .”
We’re talking Chris Weidman the All-American here. Let’s F’n Go!!!
What did you expect you were gone for two years you have a losing streak
Weidnans dad when he finds out his son is on prelims-"and this is still my boy!"
This guy throws the most regrettable kicks the sport has ever seen.
He's not the same guy he was so it is what it is !!!
Let's Go Chris
Pulling for you Chris!
He lost his last 6/8 that’s probably why he’s on the prelims. It’s the main fight on the prelims and he will have more people see his fight than will watch the ppv.
I thought he was retired
I cannot believe Chris Weidman is a prelim and that fool Ian Garry who beat nothing or nobody is main card UFC is gone to pot
2 hall of famers!
Nice 'conceive, believe, achieve' speech, but tbh I expect that Weidman will get wrecked.
I would normally say 'goodluck' in this scenario but since its weidman, 'break a leg' 💀💀💀😂😩🔥🔥🔥😩😂💀💀💀
Chris needs to retire his best days are behind him. He has nothing more to prove and he will go down as one of the best middleweights of all time.
Every interview DC does he tries to big brother the guy, "remember when I got a single leg". Done it with Garry, O Malley, Sterling and now Weidman just this week. Man is itching to come back.
I always liked Chris Weidman he's a humble down to earth man but don't forget who he is and what he's capable of doing I'm rooting for the champ to make another run and what a run that would be to win the middleweigh strap against All odds after everything he's be threw it would be epic i think if there is a person capable of that its the All-American I'm calling Captain American 2.0
12:31 you got it champ
13:11 Weidmans past NYGangstER shows
Respect to Chris and his ambitions and I remember seeing him knock out Anderson Silva 10 years ago at UFC 162. But the reality is that times have changed since then and his decline was on display when he got beat up by Luke Rockhold many years ago. 'KO Izzy'??😂🤣 No disrespect to Weidman but he ain't touching Adesanya. Whitaker & Du Plessis would wreck him. Adesanya vs Weidman would be like watching a pro vs an amateur. The game has evolved so much since 2013. Everyone eventually finds out. Chuck Liddell, Brock Lesnar, Shogun etc all were left behind. Weidman is no different. He should just focus on Tavares because that Hawaiian is a savage.
he is and he will lose ……he had his time
Hes done getting kod tomorrow
You are finished. Sorry my guy.
but i think he is ready he look pretty good physically at 39 and mentally too way he talk shows it
I understand Chris is upset about being on the Preliminary Card, but he hasn't fought in over two years. Another thing Chris is 2-6 in his last eight fights. Chris needs to focus on the fight and win. With the win he will be on the main card in his next fight.
Chris is a great guy ,hope he wins for the hard work ,and because they think he is old ,,,go for it Chris,,
Prelims or not he is still his dad's boy!
Good luck Chris, whatever happens with this comeback its just ballsy as fuk
Bro nobody is buying a ppv to watch Chris Weidman LOL
This guy went 2 and 6 in his last 8 fights he's lucky to still be in the UFC.
Disrespected? Imo hes lucky to even have a spot at this point. Should get him out the UFC. Needs to find a new career.
Chris get another fight in don’t give up
Win or lose CW is sexy AF
He'll get ko'd next fight
Yeah you haven’t won in 5 yrs. Pre prelims for you and you lost again tonight
When u lose as much as u have chris, yes u become a prelim guy
Retire……. Please just retire
Bro was right about the charming lmfaoooo dc taking everybody job
Reality is he's past his prime. It's not disrespect; it's reality. No one lasts for ever, and after an injury like that he's lucky to be able to walk correctly let alone fight. You had your day. It's time to retire, you've earned it.
He should complain about being on the early preliminary card, the boss was doing him a favor, he wasn't early prelim quality, anybody with eyes can see that. His time is gone . . . he's living a delusion
Cormier is more famous than you Chris 😂
No you lost me my parlay that night. You're the only one that LOST. You're washed up and hang em up grandpa
Went to College with Chris. He went so Hollywood.
