Do you believe in Chris Weidman now?
"All American" successfully defended his Middleweight title last night (Sat., May 23, 2015) against Vitor Belfort in the co-main event of UFC 187, which took place inside MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
And he did it decisively ... again.
Indeed, after doubters (and haters) claimed his two wins over Anderson Silva were "flukes" -- and were somehow unimpressed with his unanimous decision over Lyoto Machida -- Weidman sealed the deal with an impressive finish of yet another decorated Brazilian.
Belfort appeared to get the early edge, punishing and overzealous Weidman along the fence after the champion chased him after a stumble.
