Chris Weidman has done what most people thought was impossible in defeating Anderson Silva not only once, but twice. Weidman was however confident that he would win each fight and is glad to have this part of his career past him. Weidman is not interested in a third fight with Silva should it arise:
The fact that Weidman is the champion in the division Silva has in the past said he had no plans to leave could dim Silva’s possible return.
It’s a tough injury to come back from, Weidman said. I honestly would feel bad to fight him again. I know he’s going to be a little hesitant to kick me. He has to worry about getting knocked out. I’ve dropped him twice, knocked him out once. And I don’t know if it’d even be a fair fight to take.
There has to be a lot going through his head. Got a leg broken, got knocked out, got dropped. I don’t know where he is mentally, but fighting is 90% mental.
