Anderson Silva's record-breaking run in the UFC has earned him an immediate rematch should Chris Weidman take his middleweight title on Saturday at UFC 162.

"I'd do the rematch the next fight," UFC President Dana White on Monday told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com). "Guy hasn't lost in the UFC ever, has beat everybody. He loses that fight, he's the guy for a rematch if he wants it."

Silva (33-4 MMA, 16-0 UFC), who remains undefeated after 16 appearances in the octagon, remains a 2-to-1 favorite to beat the undefeated Weidman (9-0 MMA, 5-0 UFC), who has one less fight on his resume than the champ does title defenses. Should "The Spider" continue to reign and defend his belt for the 11th time, White said a superfight could be next.

That would mean Silva would face light heavyweight champ Jon Jones or welterweight champ Georges St-Pierre. White said the Brazilian champ hasn't cooled on a meeting with St-Pierre, as he indicted during a conference call this past week in support of Saturday's pay-per-view event at Las Vegas' MGM Grand Garden Arena.

Honestly, this match is a waste of time. Not knocking Weidmans talent and the fact hes won his fair share of fights (watched them all, can only remember the Munoz fight - cant remember seeing anything impressive or different about Weidman that Silva hasnt dealt with before), but he's not in Silva's league, by a long shot. **** easy win for Silva.

I am looking forward to tonight, are we due an upset?...probably not

 

Nobody thought Sonnen would even make it past the 1st round in their first battle.

 

Still, not going to happen. It's still an amazing card overall.

 

Also, the weight-in...

Hilarious :rofl:

JESUS CHRIST, WHAT A RUSH. I woke up the whole neighborhood screaming like I got a N64 (the card was airing at around 4 AM). THAT WAS INCREDIBLE. Anderson got too cocky with the range and ate it. He was even out with the first punch. Last time I felt such a disturbance in the force was when Fedor tapped to Werdum. Weidman did it, he put Silva away. Not on a 5 round decision, not with a tricky sub, with his fist! GODDAMN AMAZING!

What's that about?

 

UFC.tv feed has multiple camera angles available on demand. That's the corner cam right after the KO, Weidman venting a bit.

 

Anderson Silva earned $600,000 at UFC 162. The new champ, Chris Weidman, earned $48,000.

 

 

Take note that that's disclosed pay. Weidman probably got a big fat bonus check and some PPV points when the numbers come in. (Or not, if his agent isn't very competent).

 

UFC 168 keeps Ronda Rousey vs. Meisha Tate, Chris Weidman vs. Anderson Silva II to be determined

 

Now the question is, what will be the main event for the 20th Anniversary show? Are they going to swing for a Bones vs Silva superfight on short notice?

The Invicta FC 6 card is all over the goddamn place, with people missing weight badly and one of the most interesting prospects (at least for me), Veronica Rothlenhouser, fainting during her weight cut and that fight getting canceled.

 

The final card ended up as

 

Marloes Coenen vs Cris Cyborg [Featherweight Title Fight]
Claudia Gadelha vs Ayaka Hamasaki
Sarah D'Alelio vs Lauren Taylor
Leslie Smith vs Jennifer Maia
Jessica Penne vs Nicdali Rivera-Calanoc
Joanne Calderwood vs Norma Rueda Center
Bec Hyatt vs Mizuki Inoue
Miriam Nakamoto vs Duda Yankovich
Rose Namajunas vs Tecia Torres
Ediane Gomes vs Tamika Brents
Ashley Cummins vs Emily Kagan
Kathina Catron vs Livia Von Plettenberg

 

With Kathina Catron coming in on about an hour notice :|

 

At least the main event is still on.

 

 

Also, Mauro should be taken around the building and shot in the head. Crazy bad announcing.

    • Forgive my ignorance, but the only difference I see here is that a USB-A is now a USB-C, so there are two of them. For the modern age (and I'd argue since 2020), most products would now come with USB-C as an option, if not the default. Display, charging, devices, etc on TWO connectors, sometimes all combined! So having 2 of those powerful ports is great for something this size! Meanwhile my Surface Pro (5) has a single USB-A port which I cannot even get display out to, instead relying on some Surface Connect dock which I don't have. That is a poor experience, not to mention expensive and not compatible with other devices. Thank God USB-C is mainstream!
    • wow. that color finally comes to Surface Pro. was always a little jelly when a friend had the sandstone Surface Laptop. I wonder how different this dune is from the sandstone. I'll be getting the dune version. always thought black and platinum were a little boring. I'll still have access to my blue Surface Pro 11 as it'll be a hand-me-down.
    • Looks a very subjective aren't they!? I like its simple design. I love the way Apple designs their products with function over form, minimalization, and simplicity over cluttered complex designs. Many, not all, of their products follow this trend, and the device becomes a tool rather than dominating the space. I do not however like their OS. I have never bought a Apple product, and while I'd consider the Neo for my wife, I am hoping there are better alternatives out there when her failing MacBook Pro 2017 finally stops. Fischer-Price is famously plastic, garish, and poorly made. Basically you're describing the Window Laptops the Neo competes against! This is how product design should be, and what Apple have often followed in recent years: https://tenprinciples.design/
    • Isn't that true for every codec? I remember having to buy a PCI MPEG-2 decoder card just so I could play DVDs on my computer back in the late 90s. AV1 support is still fairly new.
    • I'm no Apple fan, and have never bought an Apple product for myself. But I'd argue that where you think Apple is behind regarding an OLED display, that the vast majority of people out there wouldn't even know or care for an OLED. Apple have struck the balance well to create a price point that works, and I hope that PC manufactures, and Microsoft take notice. I'd argue that Asus will struggle to compete with the Neo BECAUSE they put in a more expensive OLED that many people won't actually notice with its deeper blacks. Most people wouldn't care either that their screen is stuck at 60Hz! When I bought a 4k monitor (future proof and for the space), my laptop could only push that out at 30Hz, and it worked fine for my needs for 1.5 years! Heck, the average human eye can't see more than 90Hz in many situations!! So while they are trying to differentiate themselves, and it may well gain them a few customers, for the most part, I think they're missing the point of what the Neo is for.
