Silva vs Weidman - the rematch

How do you think this one will turn out? I'm thinking Silva will be a little more serious this time and we'll get a much better fight.

Silva wins.
UFC is all about rematches, basically every single big fight they have they do rematches on, in the last year or so. Silva nearly loses to Sonnen, then rematch destroys him, same basic setup here. Milk their fanbase for everything they have with endless rematches.
I will honestly be surprised if Silva loses this rematch and it isn't just following the script.

They do love rematches, but this is one that needed to happen. I really think if Weidman plays it smart and uses his wrestling, he will come away with the W.

That Silva leg break was one of the worst things I've ever seen in sports. Damn shame but at least he was at the end of his career. Still sucks to see anyone writhing in pain tho. And then Joe Rogan is all "Lets see if we can see the leg snap in slo-mo!!!..." Fuckin brutal though damn.

Sad to see Silva go out like that, but I still think he would have lost anyway. Sucks for Weidman as well, both of his biggest wins are always going to be considered flukes, even though he clearly dominated the first round of both fights.

He did lose in the 1st round! Dude got knocked out cold, eyes shut and he dropped like a bag of nails. Weidman even said his eyes were in the back of his head while he was punching him on the ground and he was waiting for the ref to stop it. Why the ref didn't stop the fight I will never know, but now Silva's career is over because of it.

It's pretty debatable would he have been done had he not broken his leg. Dude's almost 40!

I'm thinking right now Silva is wishing the ref would have called the fight in the first round. Of course if that had been the case then everyone would be saying "what if..."
That shit is just fucking insane. All of the fights were pretty good. That Travis Browne dude did some damage...

Yeah, the SIlva thing was brutal but it has to be said: John Donaher, one of Weidman's coaches, said after the first fight that although he was glad with Weidman's win, those leg kicks Silva threw at him were of some concern and so they worked on a technique aptly called '' the destroyer '' to check Silva's leg kicks using a knee. You can clearly see Weidman using it right before Silva's leg snapped.
Also, Dana White said that after the first kick ( the one where Silva's leg snapped was the second one ), Silva felt his bone crack after Weidman checked it. Then he tried it a second time and we all know how that turned out...
I'm foreseeing a massive change in the use of leg kicks by MMA fighters and even more in their use of this new technique, '' the destroyer '' since leg kicks are a huge part of the game. That fight will have a huge influence in the long run.

Yea, I heard a lot of people after the fight saying things like, "Silva beat himself blah blah blah." I tried explaining what you just did, that Weidman trained for that exact move and it wasn't a bad kick but a great block.

Yeah. I gather it will be a long time before people set aside their affection for Silva and accept the fact that his era has now come to an end. I love Silva myself, he was great but it's time to move on. Weidman is now 11-0, beat Silva twice and is being a great humble champion. Great for him. Can't wait to see what the future holds for him. The guy has huge talent.

Yeah when it happened I felt bad for Weidman just standing by himself while everyone was worrying about Silva writhing in pain. And the dude looked pretty bummed like man I've beat Silva twice but some will still consider them "flukes". A win is a win, he was dominating it anyway up to that.

Exactly. Not to mention, he did prepare for those leg kicks. And it paid off. But you're right, up until that moment, he was dominating Silva, just like in the first fight.
If we transposed this fight in the street and we saw someone check a leg kick with the results we have witnessed here, we'd consider the guy who checked it the undisputed winner of that fight. I don't get why some people think it's different here.

I agree, as far as inside leg kicks are concerned. I feel kicks to the top of the thigh are very underrated. A few solid kicks to the thigh of the lead leg can completely change a fight.
