It'll take at least a couple of weeks for Dana to get Anderson's ear and talk money for a rematch so until then, who do you think Weidman should face? I feel like a ton of MW's have moved down during Anderson's reign so it's not like there's too many guys out there.
Michael Bisping: He could give this guy a good fight if he can get another win. Maybe he and Muñoz can fight for a No. 1 contender match up
Vitor Belfort: He's been bugging about getting the next shot and out of all the people who I see as possible opponents(i.e. Muñoz, Bisping, Belfort, & Mousasi), I see Belfort having the worst time with Weidman. Weidman would wrestlefuck the will right out of him and TKO him in 4
Dan Henderson: Hendo hasn't fought at 85 in a couple of fights so I don't even think if he wants to make that cut to fight Weidman and even if he does, who's to say he wants to stay down there?
Gegard Mousasi: Though I kind of hate when dudes drop and get an immediate title shot, this would be a great fight. If Gegard has been working on his takedown Defense, he could get this win easily.
Mark Muñoz: Muñoz apparently looked great and more importantly, he seems to have shaken off whatever was fucking with his head. I see one last push from him for the title. Plus there's the whole vengeance angle.
Tim Kennedy: Had a great win against Hoger but is he ready? I think if anything Weidman can just outmuscle him.
Luke Rockhold: Even though he's coming off a brutal KO loss, I think Rockhold can also pose some problems for Weidman just due to his footwork and the fact that he fights the complete opposite style that Anderson fought this last time around.
Yushin Okami: Yushin has quietly gotten 3 solid wins at middleweight and he's a huge MW with a great wrestling base. I think he could also make for a good stylistic matchup.
What do you guys think? Am I forgetting anyone? I didn't include Wand cause he jumps around in weight too much. I'd like to see something of a mini MW tourney with Belfort fighting Mousasi and Bisping fighting Rockhold or Muñoz and see who emerges victorious.
