“He wouldn’t be so good just putting his hands up and looking like a typical Thai boxer,” Weidman said. “You know what the guy is going to do more if he’s doing that. He likes to come from different angles from his hands down. Trust me, he’s not coming in like you think he’s going to be coming in.”
“People say that he’s going to get pissed off, and it’s going to be this whole new Anderson Silva – it’s going to be easier,” Weidman said. “I’m very happy with the situation, and it’s exactly where I thought I was going to be, and it’s time to prove myself again on (Dec.) 28, so I’m excited.”
“He was saying that when we were hitting mitts (before the fight),” Weidman said. “We were going over it – his hands are down, he’s clowning, what do you do? The whole thing with that is you punch a hole through his chest, and then you come up to the head. So when he’s leaning back and doing that, you go right to the body – he’s not going to be able to move his chest – and then you’re able to calculate your head shot. That’s pretty much what I was able to do.”
