When The Cinderella Man wins his fight against Nick Diaz and Zuffa makes him the #1 contender to the MW title. This is how Weidman will hear the news;
Weidman's trainer Ray Longo, upon hearing this news rushes down the hotel hallway to Weidman's room and knocks on his door.
Weidman: (Weidman opens the door) Yeah...
Longo: Anderson Silva just beat Diaz! They made him the number one contender.
Weidman: I'm not gonna fight Anderson Silva again. He's a chump. You tell Zuffa to bring me somebody who can fight back!
Longo: You gonna bust your contract? It's done, Chris!
============================
During the pre-fight press conference Ariel Helwani of MMA Fighting asks Anderson about his amazing comeback.
Helwani: Ariel Helwani from MMA Fighting.
Silva: Hello, Ariel. It's been a while.
Helwani: What's changed, Andy? I mean you couldn't win a fight for love or money, right? How do you explain your comeback?
Silva: Well, you know, the truth is, Ariel... for a number of years there we was fighting injured. I fought with multiple injuries. I was in a car accident. I broke my leg once and I had to get that fixed. I had a run of bad luck. And, this time I know what I'm fighting for.
Helwani: Yeah? What's that, Andy?
Silva: Milk.
Helwani: Milk?
Silva: Ees normal.
