I think.Lyoto and Vitor are.the only ones who have very legitimate chances, Lyoto has to get.through the.moose and Vitors about.to show us what he can do.

Rumble was able to.take Vitor down and land huge ground.and pound but the ref didn't even give him 10 seconds and it was stood.up each.time he.got Vitor down. Then he gassed only shortly.before Vitor did and got.choked. I think Weidman can start strong.against Vitor.rather than "weather.the storm"'then he.will do great, Vitor isn't a fighter who.comes.from behind. Lyoto is a tough.test.for anyone, but really.it depends on how Lyoto approaches the.fight.because he will lose if he employs a similar game plan to Davis or hend. Honestly Weidman is.much bigger, longer reach,.physically strong if he has trouble at  certain range he will probably be able to change it from kicking to punching to clinching.to take down, too the.outside ect. Once Weidman gets.someone down hes trouble, if a 30lb.weight.cut on.short notice in a week Weidman can control Maia and the huge.ground.and pound he.was.able to land on Anderson in both fights, his plethora of chokes, willingness to dive on a leg against Anderson...my god, this guys a monster only getting better. 11 pro.fights haha.

Machida is the biggest threat, followed by Souza.

...So, essentially you're saying the most likely people to beat him are the top 4 MW's and a LHW?

How creative.

The person most likely to beat Chris Weidman is Jon Jones. Give him two title defenses and then make the superfight. Why the hell not?

Machida's a tough fight for anyone. Machida was also the fighter who was given the best chance to take the strap from JBJ. He good...

Weidman would kill Jon Jones, hes Already beaten the greatest African-American in the.history of.combat sports, twice.

I could probably name 20 'African-American' boxers that were better than Anderson Silva.. Quit making bold (but ridiculous) statements.

We all know that the undisputed P4P king, the GOAT, the undefeated Middleweight and Light-Heavyweight champion, the one and only CHAEL *****ING SONNEN is the only one with a shot of snatching Weidman's "crown!"

Seriously though, I think Jacare will be the one to get the job done.

I feel Weidman wont be caught by Jacare's bjj , and standing Weidman has the better standup.
Vitor has the potential to knock ANYONE OUT. So I'm picking him as the most probable to defeat Weidman
Chael would get outworked because of lesser standup.
Machida would have a great shot with his TDD and striking.
I cant say anything about Mousasi until he fights Machida

Machida and Vitor are the only two who I think have a good chance, but Machida has to be on all night sticking and moving where Vitor can put Chris down with one strike. Lyoto could time a perfect shot like he did against Evans and Thiago Silva, but I see it going more like the first round against Jones.
