Chris Weidman unhappy with placement on UFC 292 card: ‘I put my body on the line, and they put me on a prelim?

Former UFC middleweight champion, Chris Weidman is unhappy with his placement on the UFC 292 for his fight against Brad Tavares.

Weidman is set to make his Octagon return after two years away from the sport, after suffering a gruesome leg break against Uriah Hall in 2021. The 39-year-old was always determined to get back into the Octagon in order to start one last run.

Weidman will likely be inducted in the hall of fame once he retires, and has already has a legendary career. However, for his comeback fight the UFC has opted to put him on the prelims, something with the ‘All American’ is not too pleased about.
