Hendricks vs Weidman

[Satanicgoatmin]

I don't care much for either of these guys, but I think this fight would be good if Hendricks decides to go up a weight class.

 

[uhwrestler]

Are you slow...weidman would ragdoll and finish hendriks...hendriks doesn't stand a chance against the top 7 middleweight..he better stay down at welterweight

 

[wilKO]

WW may be the only weight class where the champion has no chance whatsoever against the champion or top 5 fighter in the weight above.

Edit. I forgot Hendricks isn't even champion. Still applies to Lawler too.

 

[Sigmafight]

Hendricks would literally have 0-5% chance of winning.

And the 5% is only the puncher's chance that any fighter has to be granted by default

It would be an entirely one sided televised live rape

 

[GroundNPouter]

I was legit thinking about how weidman vs Jones would go at 205 and you are asking about probably the weakest champion* against one of the better ones.

 

[SnowBlynd]

Weidman with 1 arm maybe. Might be interesting

Kinda strange. I was thinking it was because no one at WW is elite enough, but I don't think GSP could have much of a chance against any top 5 MW either right now.

MW's top 5 is scary as shit. Weidman, Machida, Rockhold, Jacare, Anderson. That's a scary line up.

Sherdog is full of strong opinions.

 

[BlastoiseDad]

Hendricks looks like a fat, 40 year old math teacher next to Adonis (the chris)

Would be a good win for Weidman,

 

[biscuitsbrah]

Considering this list, id put Hendricks at #7.
I think he would lose to Gegard but beat a guy like Kennedy

Champion : Chris Weidman
1 Anderson Silva
2 Jacare Souza
3 Lyoto Machida
4 Vitor Belfort
5 Luke Rockhold
6 Yoel Romero
7 Tim Kennedy
8 Gegard Mousasi
9 Michael Bisping
10 CB Dollaway
11 Thales Leites
12 Costas Philippou
13 Mark Munoz
14 Tim Boetsch
15 Brad Tavares

 

[Satanicgoatmin]

Well...if he does stay at ww, I'd really like to see him vs Condit 5 rounds. I think NBK could finish him.

 

[JayPettryMMA]

Sherdog is full of awful opinions.

Much better

Not even sure he beats Bisping or Philippou. especially if he fights like he did in the last title fight.

 

[Dontfight]

Pretty high punchers chance I think. His chin is one of the best, his wrestling is top-level and he wont gas - lesser weight cut, and then he will always have a chance to finish the fight. Probably loses a decision to the Chris, but still I wouldn't write him off.

And seriously he cant keep himself in shape to fight in WW so he might really think of moving to MW.

 

[Schoolboy Q]

Hendricks would get wrecked, Hendricks doesn't impress me.

 

[eduvga]

No way, The Chris would destroy Hendricks

 

[DopeZach]

Chris would manhandle Hendricks possible submission
