Dude…let…it…go and retire. You won by multiple eye pokes and all your ego can do is deny it. It’s embarrassing to watch
Holy shit what a dumb comment from someone living in their parents basement 😂
He will never get this opportunity again. He’s a shell of what he was and to have a “win” to retire on is an opportunity he won’t get again . Unless they put him in with a real can.
👁👈
Honestly wasn't that good to begin with only beat Anderson Silva because Anderson showboat 1st fight and broke leg 2nd fight
...yeah just looked at his fight record and who he's fought. He's trash. Always has been. Lucky to have won the belt.
Should’ve been a *DQ*
Should've been at ufc 300
@@population-_-420Not fooling anybody Chris
@@population-_-420🤡
No contest at a minimum
@@population-_-420what?? Lol why?
The Chris gaslighting Bruno Silva about the 4 eyepokes 🤦 Are you fucking serious? I'm no longer a fan of Chris Weidman. Such a disgraceful act and disgraceful win.
Not alone my friend.sad seeing this from a vet. Rather him go out sad. But this is sadder.
You were never a fan. UFC "fans" are disgusting creatures, you chant your favorite fighter's name during the fight, then he loses and you start cheering for his opponent. No loyalty, no spine.
so "disgraceful" to the couch potato to the guy who shattered his leg and came back to beat a top guy
@charlescharlemagne4907 I feel like you're disagreeing with the main comment....but please either explain, rewrite it, or add some commas. Because what are you saying??
Get over it, Chris won fairly
He sounded goofy. He poked him in the eye 4 times and got PUNCHED in the eye. Weird to defend it after being such a stand up guy for so long. Should have been ruled a NC.
Weidman was dominating that fight. It wasn’t even close
@@keithdarman90 ...and? are you gonna directly address anything the dude said, or did you just want to hear yourself speak?
@@lukechitwood1247 the middleweight before that was the exact same scenario
@@keithdarman90 you are saying so much yet nothing at all
@@lukechitwood1247 I’m just saying do you feel the same way about the Dumas fight???? I don’t see a huge uproar about that.
Man, this was unbelievable. You throw punches to win a fight, you don’t throw fingers
Wasn’t even trying to punch, just went for a 1-2 eye poke
Eye Poke, eye poke, left hook, booom!!
@@Suyashk_22 Yeah. I don't think the hook even landed.
he was winning the entire fight
Chris won fair and square, keep crying
Did he poke his way to victory?
Lol. Such a bullshitter Chris. You really think fans aren't watching and listening.. you won by a double eye poke after your third warning. Should have been a instant DQ.
No he'd didn't he won the decision after being deducted points. You don't how mma works do you?
I'd be embarrassed to come out and say that "I'm gonna enjoy this win".
Well that because you've never won anything in your life
Agreed
@@yourewrongabouteverythinghe was very lucky that sylva was clowning him and we all know the results.
@@yourewrongabouteverythingI won your mother for a night but it's the same situation; the morning after, I would have felt embarrassed to say I won something.
Because you’re a nobody and never won anything (maybe besides the most casual fan comment out there) 🤡
Win via double eye poke
Cry me a river ❄️
@@population-_-420🤡
hahahaha eye poke KO
Triple eye poke 😂
He was still winning up until the last minute up until the last minute of the 3rd round
How to tarnish your legacy in ONE FIGHT dudes a joke, doesn't want to retire SOOOOOOOOOOO badly that he eye pokes his way to a disgusting "victory"
Eh he got poked too, and he was winning before the poke. Silva looked off
Wahh cry buddy lmfao he did his job not his fault they didn’t rule it as a NC. Keep crying and doing nothing with your bum life. This guy didn’t tarnish his legacy over this fight lmao.
@@rollin60z chris got punched but silvas thumb went into his eye ACCIDENTALLY, chris poked him twice before the double eyepoke adding up to 4 in total dude. Also silva prob looked off coz he was getting poked so much bruh
Nah he didn't tarnish anything. He still the first guy to destroy Anderson silva twice
@@yourewrongabouteverything😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Dude wasn’t watching his hand at all and fully extending his arm fingers out. That should have been a dq for fucking sure. And to celebrate like he did as well is just fucked. What a punk
Andersons knee snapped and he ran around
I'm guessing you're a DC or Jon Jones fan. 😢
@@fmcdomerExactly!! I remember that. He ran around the octagon celebrating that ish. What kind of person does that?? Then when it happened to him, energy definitely wasn’t the same
New York style
Haters
His response and reaction is as bad as his eye pokes
What a proud cheater
What a disgrace.
Yes you are i feel sorry for your family
@@yourewrongabouteverything What's wrong with you? You're in every comment insulting people. You are delusional and a disgrace! Get a life, a hobby, something!
@@yourewrongabouteverythingnice try Weidman! You ain’t fooling anybody!
Dirty fighter, incompetent ref judges
Ufc Madonna syndrome. Doesn’t want to age or retire gracefully so he’ll do whatever it takes to remain in the octagon.
Totally agree 💯
"UFC Madonna" FTW I like that. You nailed it.
Never seen a left-right eye-poke combo finish before. How was that not a dq?
It was accidental so was decision win
Because that's not how the rules works 😂
@@yourewrongabouteverything eye pokes are illegal, the ref did not see it. Idk whaat u are tallking about how rules work
Chris showing just how desperate he was for this win.
Could only imagine how much he was wanting a win.
Weidman looking like wolverine with those open hand punches
Lol. Chris “wolverine” Weidman
Bro literally threw a 1-2 eye poke and landed both😂😂😂
Eye Poke, eye poke, left hook, bamm
Then he defends it lol🤦🏻♂️ Wake up bro
Literally cheated and poked dude in the eye 4-5 times
Go hate on Jon Jones then too he poke multiple times every fight. Is he a cheater? Should all his fight be overturned?
@@yourewrongabouteverything
Dude what are you talking? Everyone hates Jones in 2024. Fuckin boomer casual.
@@yourewrongabouteverythingyes
Double eye-poke wins should be followed up by DQ or retirement by the so-called winner (weidman).
Still doesn’t make sense that they didn’t AT LEAST take away a point from the decision… Weidman poked him multiple times with only a soft warning… talking about you can’t drop if you “feel” your eye was poked.. MF IT WAS
Jon Jones fan?
They did take a point in the 3rd. Weidman won a decision 2-1
They didnt take a point.@@sharkfinsurfchannel
Stil would’ve won lmao
@@sharkfinsurfchannel official scorecards still say 30-27😢
Chris: Sticks finger deep in opponents eye "Maybe he's looking for a way out"
You don’t just drop after getting poked in the eye
@@MetalCactus0765cool story let's go back to the part where you said 'poked in the eye'
the guy has no soul
if it was the other way around would've been a DQ
@@paulrichardson9506 go watch a Jon Jones fight and come back with the same mentality then
@@MetalCactus0765 that would be true but he got poked in both eyes back to back
Why Dana Still let this guy stay in UFC
He literally was winning that fighting in it’s entirety. The eyes pokes are lame, but his skills are definitely still there.
@@jacobsmith3526yea he dominated the entire fight
@@jacobsmith3526Everyone can beat Silva
@@keithdarman90doesn't matter he literally did an eye poke combo and won. Ridiculous
@@GOREDO5 I agree. They should have let him finish out the last two minutes and get the easy win that way
double eye poke intentional is insane
To praise yourself after a win like that is fucked
This is so bad for the sport. Rule this no contest and run it again. BS win
Trust me if bruno silva was a bigger name in the ufc it would've been a no contest. They were riding weidmans nuts hard cause of veteran privilege.
weidman lost all respect obviously throwing eye pokes was part of the game plan
100%. IMO his only way for any respect back would be to say he watched it back and doesn't want the win, and tell UFC to overturn it.
@@bchansens Yeah. I won't hold my breath.
Cheater
Stay mad 😂 acting like silva aint poke him either
@@Marelin242Did Silva poke him 4 times with a double poke included? Didn't think so. Stay delusional.
Come on Chris u poke the man’s eye more than once.
This is the definition of home field advantage.
Chris used to have hands, now it’s just fingers
😂😂😂😂😂
Dudes really gonna go home tonight thinking he won this fair and square that’s crazy
dude is a certified clown that's for sure
karma will catch him
He's delusional,most down the hill fighters get that way.
He won the first two rounds, he was gonna win the fight regardless, cope.
@@YakubTheScientist8841 lmao found the last Weidman fan
@@evanlarsen9885 lmao found the only silva fan, bye bye to your money! Say bye bye!
Win via No Contest
DQ
@@jordanteraza917 he won the decision
@@yourewrongabouteverything And zero points deducted. Decisions have been overturned before.
Bro really needs the money after all those surgeries.
the ref needs to retire along with chris
This was ridiculous should have been dq
Double eye poke tko. Chris you should be ashamed for defending this win. Should have been a dq imo
Mr. Denial
Why was this not a DQ for DOUBLE EYEPOKE??? What a terrible fight night. 2 guys in 2 matches in a row take advantage of SHITTY REFEREES and TKO via EYEPOKE.
Congratz Weirdman ON YOUR EYEPOKE TKO. Break a leg
Your profile picture😂😂😂😂😂
@rollin60z You dont like my face? Aww my feelings!!!! LOL
Anime pfp 😂😂🤡@@rollin60z
🤦🏻♂️break a leg lol amazing 😂
@@rollin60zCome on brotha show your face. Doesn’t surprise me, “rollin 60’s” huh? we know what you look like, prob have a fat nose and fat lips huh? We don’t worry about people like you hating, you guys are notorious for bein haters.
I’m happy he’s not retiring. Give him Khamzat, costa, or someone who can kick legs.
You’re delusional Chris
And what exactly are you? This dude has accomplished things you cant imagine, but you have it all figured out and he doesn’t, lol. You’re telling the world that you don’t respect yourself when you say shit like this. How could you? If you’re gonna bash this dude, how can you possibly think you’re not a turd at best.
He won
He won every round no matter the eye pokes. He's an idiot for the pokes but the bad one was at the end.
@@robertkass94 Wins have been overturned before.
@@wideopenthrottl no shit
Smh eye poke won you the match tn
His new eye poke style is amazing I don't see how anyone can overcome it, his fingers are so accurate.
dude literally double eye poked with a left and a right after being warned multiple times to close his fucking fists should of been an easy dq or nc shame on the officiating team
Chris fought like a true coward.
😂😂
He was literally dominating dummy 😂
Listen, he sounds like a schmuck now but he looked great tonight. Not cowardly, just dirty asf
😂
Strickland is that you
I know a win is a win, but as a competitor, how can you come out and be proud of yourself after DOUBLE eyepoking your opponent in order to get the win
I thought this was the UFC not the UEC Ultimate Eyepoking Champion
Lmao
Imagine a fighting style utilizing only eyepokes. Punches get you DQ'd! 👀
Good one Enrique did you come up with that while cutting my grass?
He won all 3 rounds, it went to decision and he won. Cope.
No contest
DQ
@@jordanteraza917 apparently a NC wasn't even possible under the rules, so absolutely ref should've had some balls and DQ'd
@@lukechitwood1247 He only had 2 formal warnings and one verbal mid-fight warning. At most it's a super warning and then after 3 super warnings, a point deduction.
Nah Chris won that fight lil bro.
I had Bruno on a couple parlays so was kind of hoping for an NC but it is what is.
@@c_marquez117 The guy who made this comment would body slam you easily like the little video game kid you are.
Bro you deliberately cheated and everyone’s just cool with it? Idk how you can watch that replay and not be disgusted with yourself bro.
Ref shoulda took a point on the poke before that also
How are you gonna get the refs attention to actually penalize the guy for scratching your eyes out
Dirtiest fighter in the UFC
Ok, relax.
Did you miss the guy from last week who literally bit his opponent when he was winning the fight? 🤡
The same people hating on Chris love DC, Jones, and Yoel.
@@Mr.Hyde_23 everyone’s acting like the decision he was given was his choice lol.
@@bloodontoast8522he's not in the ufc now
Which eye poke do you mean, Chris?
You don’t just drop when you feel like you got poked in the eye
Man he clawed his right eye lid hard though, finger was deep. He may have feel from the pain. Should have been a no contest
Wish a reporter asked how many times he poked his training partners in the eye before this fight.
Bout to go hit some finger pushups. ufc here i come
this man went from the most liked / respected to the most hated over night
Says more about the 'fans' than him
@@TheWbapricey lol that makes no sense. The reason the why people are even more annoyed is because of his comments to Bruno after the fight, Chris didn't acknowledge his fouls he instead blames it on bruno.
@@gabagoolovahere5869 listen here sil, there was a few fouls from both sides Silva jumped to the ground your in a fight what you gunna do?
Bro these journalists needa stop kissing these guy's asses so much it's GENUINELY pathetic that they're more concerned with the fighter liking them than doing their job 🤦♂
He's talking about "you can't just drop and look for a way out" like he didn't do an Aljo Sterling before Aljo against Gegard Mousasi
great win, i rly don’t understand why this comment section is hating on you Chris, that was a great 1-2 eye poke finish. Jon Jones the GOAT himself would be proud!
Chris "Pokey" Weidman
Bro is getting desperate for money... NYC is too expenisive for him
Chris does NOT live in NY !!!
He lives in South Carolina , where Wonderboy lives ( his brother in law )
👍✊
Chris "Finger Lickin' Good" Weidman
Haha
Weedman needs to retire too much cte
😂
He got a win
Chris ‘Bones’ Weidman
Crazy he thinks he got eye poked lol
He got hit with a thumb (part of the closed fist)
He poked Silva 4 times with no point deduction
Not to mention the end of the fight was a double eye poke !
Still an eye poke
@@robertkass94 called a punch with closed fist. Punched in t he eye is not a eye poke. Its in the rule set you can punch the eye but but with a closed fist.
@@kefkahkefkahlol he got eye poked ya flop. One thing to be angry about his eye poked he gave even though he doMinated and won every round..
But to diminish and say he didn’t get eye poked make you as much a joke with weidman denying his eye poked
He must've game planned with jon jones, they both know u can get away with eyepokes
Chris win by being dirty that's not honorable.
If they don’t overturn that win to a no contest I will make sure to never watch another weidman fight…which is probably like 6 months before he’s retired. lol his excuses in this conference are crazy. You can’t fall to the ground after both eyes get stabbed and your momentum from your punch aids in you falling forward? I know dude needed a win badly but this is sad to see. I used to like this guy smh 🤦🏻♂️
Its a decision
Chris, don’t become like Tony. Pitiful😢
He already not like Tony, he just won. Unfortunately, Tony still on the downside & the worst declined fighter in the UFC.
he looked way better than Tony out there lol
@@BlueprintGB-gz5qq And that’s why he needs to retire with a win.
@@nyteowl8069 He is 3 - 7 since 2015. And Tony fought some really tough opponents.
@@BlueprintGB-gz5qqTony is not a disgrace to combat sports like The Eye Gouger Weidman
Now that’s Eyerony
This short Referee is the worst one. Omg. This was No Victory for Chris. Come on! Why they Not looked again at the tvs
Wow. Chris Weidman is absolutely delusional. He thinks this was a good showing and that he deserved the win?
This fight should have been No contest. Media doesn’t have balls to ask him the truth
The ref should've given him stern warnings to close his fist, after the first poke and the second. He was too chill about it.
Totally NC, terrible call on everyone. Definitely not an earned win.
Weirdman
The MMA community is fucking brutal 😂everyone was just showing love to weidman now dudes being called a cheater gotta love it 👏🏼
Jones to Weidman , did we just become best friends ?
That was a cheat code 😅
Can't believe Chris is celebrating this win? I thought Chris was a solid dude with integrity. This guy is weird.
Protect your eyes at all times
What a dirty fighter! That was a double eye poke that lead to the finish. Plus he never really beat Anderson Silva. Anderson was goofing around and Chris capitalized.
Just retire after that freebie
Retire Chris you are not a elite fighter anymore
Should’ve been a draw you poked him 4 times. His thumb stuck you eye with close fist. This guy had his fingers extended his fingers the whole fight
And dude thinks he not only deserves the win but deserves the TKO???? His opponent was standing up when the ref called it. Even if it was a legitimate knockdown, it was the worst stoppage ever
Eye pokes worse than Jon Jones
Doesn`t get more blatant than that. L fighter. No honor. Kick him out Dana.
OVERTURN THE WIN GIVE IT TO SILVA
Apparently Krav Maga does work.
His hand was in that “ice bag” to hide the sanitation effort to preserve his fingers from Brunos brain fluid, moisture for his eye’s ducts, and any eye crust silva may have had from waking up that day… omg what a chump🏆*champ
With all due respect, im not liking the cockiness this guy is showing after a "win" of that nature. You clearly see a bad double eye poke in the replay followed by the check hook that completely missed. No contact whatsoever. Add that double eye poke with the eye pokes from earlier and how do you not expect Silva to react in such a way? Did we forget about Belal and Leon? Chris you looked good tonight but you don't deserve this win. You seem to be celebrating as if you won in spectacular fashion. This should have been a NC if anything. Please humble yourself a bit man.
Damn u could have been real and be like yeah i didnt mean to poke his eye but it happened
The All American Zero, what a travesty win.
Chris Weidman. Such a disgraceful win. that Ref should have disqualified him or called it a no contest. Not one eye poke but three, another Ref would have stopped the fight right there and gave it to Bruno Silva. This was a real bad call and should be overturned.
terrible fight, terrible reffing, terrible judging, just terrible!
That ref Copeland is an awful referee. He had early stoppages and bullshit timeouts all night. And then he completely misses the double eyepoke from old Chris Eyedman here. The ref needs to stay out of the fight.
The 1-2 eye poke was a crazy "win"
Ridiculous, 4 eye pokes in 1 fight does not take responsibly, pathetic so desperate for a win will even take one where he clearly committed multiple fouls then blames the opponent!!! referee is to blame, what is the point of replays.
" i dont know if he was looking for a way out " the dude is joke, should ve been dq and should retire
