Chris Weidman eyes Robert Whittaker fight, hasn't ruled out trip to light heavyweight

After losing his Middleweight title to Luke Rockhold at UFC 194 via fourth-round knockout, "All American" suffered the second loss of his career at UFC 205 a few weeks ago, getting torched by Yoel Romero via flying knee (video here) in his home state of New York.

Despite going through a rough patch, Weidman’s confidence in himself can’t be broken, as he still feels like he’s the best 185-pound fighter in the world, though his previous two efforts haven't show it. To prove his worth, however, Chris is open to take on any top contender or up-and-comer.
