Chris Weidman dismisses Marvin Vettori callout: ‘You aren’t that good’

Weidman returned to the win column this past weekend with a decision win over Omari Akhmedov and while it wasn’t exactly a performance that evoked memories of the former UFC middleweight champion’s prime, it was the first victory in over three years for “The All American.”

Shortly after his win, Weidman, 36, was challenged by up-and-coming middleweight Marvin Vettori:

Weidman looked horrible tonight. He’s a former champion let me whip his boring ass next.
