No heart... the guy that got grinded out for 4.5 rounds and never stopped trying to lock a sub until he finally got it at the very end of the fight? Is that the guy with no heart that you are referring to. Yea, its funny that when other fighters do something similar its called good business, but when Silva does it, he is ducking people.
Regardless of who deserves the fight, it has to be very easy to understand why this is a bad fight for Silva, not a bad matchup a bad fight. Once Silva beats Weidman, Weidman will very rapidly become a bum, he wasnt ready, he came off injury he had a very limited list of wins... much like happened to Leites and others he has beat. I mean Forrest was at one point the LHW champ but lost ALL credibility after he lost to Silva. Still Rockhold holds a title and Le has a big name and would make it for an awesome fight to watch stylistically.
I realize the champ should not hand pick his opponents, but at least call him a businesman...
