He also wins on every single rankings on every website that has them...
If anything, Sherdog should say Lombard b/c he is more famous and has foughtmore famous people than Weidman and that is clearly what matters most. Losses to famous fighters > Wins over top 15 but not famous enough fighters on Sherdog
Who exactly has Weidman showed his awesome talent against? I have nothing against Munoz, but Matt Hammil KO'd the guy. MATT HAMMIL!!!! (terrible, plodding striking). His fight against Maia was boring as all hell (saw it live and almost fell asleep), and please, we can't blame everything on the weight cut.
Weidman is a great fighter, I will give him that. He has a slick submission game and above average striking. But he is not on the level of striking that guys like Belfort, Lombard, and Bipsing have. I think any of those three either take him to a UD, and if he has a bad chin they KO him with ease.
This is just my opinion and isn't mean to offend you, btw. That shouldn't need to be typed out, but a lot of people get offended around here when other think one of their favorites will be beaten. I just don't believe Weidman has proved enough to be considered a contender.
