Just earlier this year in July, Chris Weidman stunned the UFC world when he knocked out Anderson Silva to claim the UFC Middleweight Championship.
Weidman comes into UFC 168 with a perfect 10-0-0 record, compared to Silva's 33-5-0 record. However, Silva is the man with experience, and some find it hard to believe that he will make the same mistakes as he made in the first fight again tonight.

Weidman undoubtedly is a hugely talented fighter, but many still believe that his knock out of Silva was a bit of a one-off fluke. He will be entering the octagon tonight looking to silence his doubters and win over critics. He seems confident of himself enough to put his newly won belt on the line tonight, and that confidence – one of his main attributes – could also end up being the one weakness Silva looks to exploit.
In tonight's co-main event, UFC Bantamweight Champion Ronda Rousey, who has a 7-0-0 record, will put her title on the line to fight a rematch against Miesha Tate, who comes into the bout with a 13-4-0 record.
Both fighters recently featured on The Ultimate Fighter as coaches. That reality show has further raised their profiles somewhat, and the Rousey vs Tate match-up will also be a significant draw for UFC fans tonight.
There is a strong rivalry between the two fighters, which goes back years. Of course everyone remembers how Rousey broke Tate's arm with her signature armbar in March 2012.
UFC 168 featuring Chris Weidman vs Anderson Silva, and Ronda Rousey vs Miesha Tate will have online prelims starting at 7 p.m., main prelims at 8 p.m., with the main card starting at 10 p.m. ET. The UFC prelim events are available to watch online through live stream by clicking here.
