I actually like this one a lot if he's refusing to retire and they need to offer him a fight. Eryk is about as low a risk MW fight you can take for anyone who's been around for a while.
Weidman had the opportunity to go out on top (despite the controversy of the eye pokes etc) last night in the very city he started his MMA career in back in 2009. However Weidman has said he plans to keep fighting. Who should he fight next?
UFC isn't gonna hand him "easy fights" but they could give him ones that are somewhat winnable like they did with Bruno Silva or they could put him against fighters who are likely to finish & make a name off him, which direction do you think they should go?
That double eye poke combo was so revolutionary. I want to see this innovator back in the octagon again. Give him the Anderson Silva trilogy. He does good against Silvas.
Give him to Bo. Chris is washed but he’s still a former champ making good money, may as well build up new stars off him.
Plus Bo will steamroll him and may give Chris the wake up call he seems to need in order to realize that he just can’t compete at the highest level anymore.
