Chris Weidman - Chapter Two
Source: UFC.com - Jun 7, 2011 at 9:44 PM
If you were impressed with Chris Weidman’s defeat of Alessio Sakara in March, which came after just four pro fights and two and a half weeks’ notice, he’s got news for you: you ain’t seen nothin’ yet.
Because not only did the Long Island, New York native fight a veteran of nearly 30 pro fights without a full training camp, he did it with a fractured rib. Makes the shutout three round decision even more impressive, doesn’t it?
But what did you expect from a 26-year old that has already been touted as the middleweight division’s next big thing from the time he put his wrestling singlet away and entered Ray Longo’s gym to begin his MMA career
