    Weidman might be getting his walking papers after today

    I think Weidman's decline is just as mental as it is physical. Sure, he's probably a victim of USADA, but mentally he's completely ruined as well.

    Nah.... I don't think they'll cut him. He's still main eventing despite a 3 fight skid. They value him and will probably hand a few easy wins in an attempt to rebuild him.

    They should have forced him to fight Gus instead of getting an undeserving immediate title shot. Everyone knows the cokehead doesn't want that work.

    Yep. Gus is his kryptonite and he looked better than even last time out.

    Weidman looks good so far... Now the question is whether or not he can maintain this for 5 rounds.

    Still very confident in my Gastelum pick, Weidman will fade.

    10-9 Gastelum. Weidman completely controlled the round until getting dropped.

    Gastelum using the Frank Shamrock vs Tito gameplan. He'll get a gassing Weidman in 4.

    Honestly Weidman still looks pretty good. Even if he comes up short tonight, he could potentially rebuild after a few tune ups.

    Gastelum knows Portuguese? I thought he was Mexican.

    Gastelum and Frank are REALLY similar now that I think about it.
