Video: Chael Sonnen says Chris Weidman is just a 'better fighter' than Anderson Silva

Remember that whole "Anderson Silva was just screwing around when he got caught" excuse that fans used when Chris Weidman shocked the world and dethroned the UFC middleweight champion at UFC 162?

Yeah, Chael P. Sonnen aint buying it. Appearing on MMA Noise with Mike Straka, the retired mixed martial artist said when Silva was knocked out in the first fight he was doing exactly what he does every time.

"Up until that point, it was a seven and a half minute fight, Weidman won seven and a half minutes of that fight," said Sonnen.
