Weidman: I want to ‘make a mockery’ of Belfort
Chris Weidman: “I’m going to embarrass [Vitor Belfort] in that cage. I’m going to make him look like an old man who withered away.”
Chris Weidman is not known to talk a lot of trash to his opponents leading up to his fights, but if he push the right buttons, you just might see the New Yorker come out.
Vitor Belfort recently criticized the champion for withdrawing from their scheduled December 6th bout with a broken hand, and that didn’t sit well with Weidman:
?”I’m going to have a lot of fun,” Weidman said on Monday’s edition of The MMA Hour. “I’m going in there to embarrass him. This is not going to be a close fight, this is going to be a completely, I’m going to embarrass him in that cage. I’m going to make him look like an old man who withered away.”
“I want to completely toy with him,” Weidman said. “I want to toy with him. I want to beat him up standing, I want to toss him on his butt. Smack him in his mouth a couple times while he’s on the ground. Maybe go for a submission, make him almost tap, and let go of it, let him stand up, beat him up on the feet, take him down again, just completely just make a mockery of him.”
