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.
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.
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.
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.
