Welcome to Midnight Mania!
A New Yorker heading south to go to the Jersey shore? That’s a story as previous as time.
In keeping with a primary report from Laerte Viana, Former Final Combating Championship (UFC) Middleweight kingpin, Chris Weidman, will try and bounce again into the win column reverse power-punching finisher Bruno Silva at UFC Atlantic Metropolis, which is scheduled for March 30, 2024 from inside Boardwalk Corridor in Atlantic Metropolis, New Jersey. Per the report, contracts are but to be signed however each events have verbally agreed to the match up.
This bout could possibly be thought-about a final stand for Weidman. The previous champion has misplaced 4 of his final 5 bouts relationship again to 2018, however simply as importantly, he’s damaged his leg in consecutive fights! Admittedly, the particular harm was totally different, as Weidman shattered his personal shin throwing a low kick versus Uriah Corridor, whereas low kicks landed by Brad Tavares fractured the top of his tibia final trip.
UFC CEO Dana White was virtually begging him to retire after the Tavares loss, however it seems that Weidman remains to be our boy for not less than yet another battle.
“Blindado” Silva isn’t a simple process by any measure, however the Brazilian banger has been struggling as nicely. He’s misplaced 4 of his final 5 too, together with high-profile defeats to the likes of Alex Pereira and Brendan Allen. Happily, a knockout win over Brad Tavares in April 2023 has stored him afloat at 185-pounds, although this might nonetheless be thought-about a must-win battle for Silva too.
