Former UFC middleweight champion Chris Weidman training with Mark Henry

Chris Weidman is broadening his horizons as he attempts to avenge his first mixed martial arts loss.

The former UFC middleweight champion is expected to rematch the man who took his title at UFC 194, Luke Rockhold, with date and venue to be determined.

As Weidman gets back to business with his gym work, the former titleholder is reaching out beyond his Serra-Longo Fight Club roots. MMAFighting.com's Ariel Helwani reported on Wednesday's edition of UFC Tonight that Weidman is training with New Jersey-based striking coach Mark Henry.

Henry is best known for his work with former UFC lightweight champion and current top featherweight contender Frankie Edgar.
