๐ช๐โค Oooh New York, New York... All-American Viking is "back"! #3 is a lucky charm!๐๐๐
In New York,
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of,
There's nothing you can't do...
Chris Weidman(Fighter)
Al Capone (Mobster)
Christina Aguilera ("Singer")
Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson ("Multi talent")
Paris Hilton ("RichKidsTvTheRealStory")
๐ฅ Frank Sinatra
All these famous "icons" have something in common with Chris Weidman, they all made it for some reason. They will all make it in the history books for their "effort". And they are all from NY. Why so many "s? Later...
Chris Weidman was the middleweight champion after he "defeated" Anderson Silva. Right until ๐ December 12, 2015, when Luke Rockhold snapped his victory streak in half and becoming the new ๐"throne holder". Btw I grew up without a father, and would still have his dad to embarrass me in front of the whole world...
Still my boy!
Since then lots of things had happened, and Chris once said he cannot believe that Michael Bisping is the champion.
Believe "you me" buddy, he is.
Have some patience with it... All things are difficult before they become easy...
It was an "easy" road for Chris, MMA wise of course... He did struggle like most who later made it big... It was said long before he was a champion that the throne will be under his control one day. And all of you were right!
I like what he brings to the table, and the people of New York and most Americans do 2! I give him props for working hard and living that dream. Well deserved Sir!
New York๐
This was his 3rd time-fighting in the state of New York, and if he lost I think he would probably retire. Like Mike Tyson once said,
"I'm not gonna disrespect this sport anymore, by losing to this caliber of fighters"
Well said, Mike! But the thing is Chris was in his prime practically his whole career if you ask me. He was beaten in his prime, 3 times in a row... A few more guys are out there on the roster who made that "fall from grace" a big success, but the lights are on you "All-American"!
I was a fan until the Gegard Mousasi fight, yeah I said it!
It was clear as a day that Chris was in a panic mode and tried to "con" the judges... NO, GO! It's like getting spam comments from trolls...
It was a message that opened my eyes, Chris is a bit lost like Luke Rockhold said. After his first defeat in MMA, things did change for "The Viking" for the worst I guess...
After the Romero fight, I heard his wife asked him a week later:
Marivi: Hey Honey, what would you like for dinner?
Chris: how about some knees?
Marivi:
The same thing happened 6 months later... Only a different answer...
Chris: "How about some "Gegard with cheese"?๐
NEW YORK LOVES THEIR OWN PEOPLE
Start spreading the news, I'm leaving today, I want to be a part of it... New York, New York...
These people are something like the crazy Irish fans (best positive way:) รire Abรบ! But I like how they treat Chris after all the s%$= he "was through". I really like it, and "mah man Frank," said it all the beginning...
Chris won his last fight tonight against Kelvin Gastelum who is, in my opinion, one of the smallest middleweights around. 3rd Round submission. Kelvin was afraid to go up at 185, still, a huge hype behind him leading to this fight... And Chris kinda got that hype now, got "his hype back"...๐ฅ
He said in the post fight interview: "These other dudes keep doubting me, I dare you... Keep doubting me!"
Okay, buddy!๐
"About the"I just like it a lot I guess"

% upvote thanks to @kid4life - Hail Eris !Even though Weidman got rocked by Gastelum it's good to see Chris back on a winning streak. I don't think he'll ever be champion of the division again but he's a legit top 3 contender. I'd like to see him rematch with Rockhold with the winner facing either Bisping or Whittaker.
I agree with you on that one sir!
I just think Chris is mentally not strong enough to be a champion again... And who knows what would happen in that first fight with Silva, or the second one fo that matter... I dunno... Whittaker is cool, but I hate people being too happy about the Interim s&%t... Luke is legit tho...He signed his next fight... we wait now...
Cheers
