Fight of the Night: Chris Weidman def. Lyoto Machida This fight was intriguing from the get-go as Weidman was the one cutting off all the angles Machida attacked from— a strategy “The Dragon” used to use so well. Weidman dominated the former light heavyweight champion for three rounds and it seemed like things were going downhill for Machida until the fourth. Machida started attacking the body of Weidman, which drained the champion’s gas tank allowing Machida to pepper him with shots for the remainder of the fight. By the end of the bout, Machida was bloody and Weidman’s sides were bruised badly. This was a necessary victory for Weidman as he hushed all the non-believers that called his victories over Anderson Silva a fluke. He went five full rounds with a former champion and ate some serious shots; Chris Weidman is the real deal.

Marcus Brimage made his bantamweight debut tonight and looked fantastic. His decreased muscle mass improved his gas tank and he looked fresh, fast, and responsive throughout the entire fight. This is the best he has ever looked. The judges, however, did not look that great when their announcement was read.
