Report: Anderson Silva Agrees to Defend Belt Against Chris Weidman at UFC 162

Thiago Silva vs. Rafael 'Feijao' Cavalcante targeted for UFC 162

..

[SPX]

'Bout time for Silva to stop being a bitch about Weidman.

As for Silva/Cavalcante, all I know is that if he wins it will be turned into an NC because Silva fails another drug test.

[Svino]

Weidman has looked very good but I think he's overhyped now. I've been a skeptic about Silva's wrestling ability for a long time and even I think he's going to smash Weidman.

[SPX]

Yeah, if Weidman can't get the TD then it will probably be a short night for him. But who else is there at this point?

Lombard and Belcher both just had their hype trains derailed by Okami and Okami definitely isn't getting another title shot any time soon.

I guess if Rockhold beats Vitor then he's the only other guy who makes sense, especially considering the fact that he was the SF titleholder when they closed their doors.

UFC 162 adds Munoz vs. Boetsch, Kennedy vs. Gracie, Cavalcante vs. Silva

[edman5555]

Anderson Silva opens as -215 favorite over Chris Weidman.

So a show of hands. Who thinks Weidman is going to go out there and handle Silva?

I think Weidman will get knocked out.

[Luke]

Me...

Holy shit Silva up to -400 already. I'll take Weidman at those odds

[Thewisemann]

Weidmsn is gonna own Silva. But I really wanted him to get one more fight first.

I give him a shot but owning him is going to be hard. Do you think he can sub Silva?

[Thewisemann]

Possible. But he will win.

[SPX]

I think Silva is going to fuck him up just like Silva fucks everyone up. I'd bet him right now at -300 but I don't have enough money in my account to justify tying 3u up for that long.

[poopoo333]

I would love to get Weidman at +250 or better fight day. I'm gonna put $1k on it

Ypu possess ballsack. Are you going to go for decision or submission?

I don't know...probably headkick KO

[poopoo333]

One thing I do not like about Weidman is that he seems to be a very positional grappler, he isn't like Sonnen who just doesn't stop punching you in the face. Weidman maintains positions, tries to advance, and get the submission. Sonnen was able to just take Silva down and really tire him out and beat the shit out of him...this makes me think Silva will be more fresh in rounds 2-5 and will have a better chance on the feet before getting taken down.

I think Silva will have alot more trouble on the ground with Weidman. Sonnen hit Silva 1000 times on the ground and does minimal damage. He mounted Silva and couldnt do any damage. Weidman takes Silva down, i think he'll dish out more damage. He has the ability to finish Silva. Sonnen didnt have that threat.

[Thewisemann]

Already dropped 500 at Weidman +280

[edman5555]

I still think weidman is a little green. He will probably make some kind of mistake and get blasted.

[edman5555]

Well apparently I am a retard and everyone else is smart.

I'm with you on Anderson figuring something out with Weidman. And I'll say this shit, I've been wanting someone to beat Anderson for a while, and if Weidman is the guy to do it will actually piss me off. Because of all the people who have fought Anderson, Weidman is probably my least favorite. Well, except for maybe Thales Leites.
