LAS VEGAS – Eryk Anders sees retirement on the horizon despite scoring what he described as the most significant victory of his career against Chris Weidman at UFC 310 . After getting knocked down in the first round, Anders (17-7 MMA, 9-8 UFC) came on strong against former middleweight champion Weidman (16-8 MMA, 12-8 UFC) in the second frame and countered a submission attempt with some big ground and pound for the TKO victory at T-Mobile Arena. At 37 and with a UFC career that dates back to July 2017, Anders has lasted the better part of a decade on the roster. He admits the end is near, though, and revealed he has a timeline in mind. “I’ve been doing this a while,” Anders told MMA Junkie and other reporters post-fight at UFC 310. “Mid-next year will be my eighth year in the UFC

UFC 310 video: Eryk Anders makes Chris Weidman pay for choke attempt with TKO

BAD MMA News — Sun, 08 Dec 2024 02:08:56 +0000

A critical error in fight IQ set the stage for Chris Weidman to get finished by Eryk Anders at UFC 310 . After scoring a knockdown in the opening round of the 195-pound catchweight bout on Saturday at T-Mobile Arena, Weidman (16-8 MMA, 12-8 UFC) went for an ill-advised choke attempt that allowed Anders (17-7 MMA, 9-8 UFC) to get into position to open up and finish the job by second-round TKO. The first round was all-out aggression from Anders, who attempted multiple takedowns and hurt Weidman with a head kick. He also landed an illegal strike to a downed opponent as Weidman was getting up, but he was able to fight on and shortly thereafter landed a huge punch that knocked Anders down and had him in survival mode for the remainder of the round.
