Anyone think Vitor blitz n destroys weidman?

Ive been around way longer then you. N no. Vitor is the fastest MW or maybe Machida AS has always been more known for his accuracy

Explosivness and speed, Vitor is a stand out.... nor Machida nor Anderson.
 
No, I see Weidman submitting Belfort. Belfort is mentally weak and will be bullied on the ground.
 
I cannot wait for Vitor to knock Weidman's head off. Vitor MW champ 2014.
 
Vitor huggers of course.

I like both guys, but historically, strong, smart wrestlers with competent standup were always problem for Belfort.

thats in 205,no one was a problem for belfort in 185.we will see,weidman is a tough test for vitor,if vitor can keep a fight standing at least for one round i think he is going to win.
 
I think Vitor is his biggest threat, yes. Vitor's ground game is more dangerous than Silva's, and I think Vitor is better at keeping the fight standing. Striking wise, Silva is of course better, but I think Vitor will still be able to beat Weidman standing. I just hope that Vitor actually uses his speed and swarms Weidman with strikes instead of letting Weidman work on his range and move away when Vitor jumps in.
 
I know TRT belfort will finish weidman... Like I knew Anderson would lose both times...

Vitor was taken down by Rumble Johnson, at will, until he totally gassed out because of his ridiculous weight cut.

Rumble Johnson.

Yeah but Rumble can fight at hw and is huge also Vitor seems to be improving in all aspects of mma very fast lately.
 
TRTor is a scary matchup for anyone. But if Chris remains patient, he can frustrate him, then start plonking down double legs and GnP at will come the 3rd round.
 
Of course he can. Vitor can blitz and take out anybody. Would he on a given night? I'd give it about a 35% chance. More likely Weidman makes it a clinch/ground war and wears Belfort out. But you can't count Vitor out. He just needs to rock someone a little bit because his follow up coffin nails are the deadliest in the sport. Guy bleeds killer instinct when his opponent is hurt.
 
Do people watch the same fights as everybody else? Chris will smash Vitor. This kid is something special and he's home grown in US. Pay attention people he's going be champ for awhile.
 
No, Weidman is pretty fucking good. In fact, I think he will be the champion for a long time.

Don't forget his grappling is absolutely his best tool; if hits the mat, Vitor's not getting up, as much as I like him.
 
I follow what you mean AS is beastly but lacks pressure. I can't see Weidman countering or footworking away from Vitor n Vitor should watch the TD. not as much wishful thinking as just going by paper.

Well the paper i read tells me that vitor struggles against skilled wreslers like couture,henderson,tito. The Blueprint has already been laid how to beat vitor.
 
Weidman is bigger and stronger than even TRT Vitor and his sense of distance and defense will allow him to take Vitor down and grind him out from there. If Vitor blitzes Weidman's footwork is good enough to get out of the way.

Rumble had problems taking down WWs.

And there's nothing to suggest Vitor has improved his TDD at all.
