Anderson Silva is 33-6 with twenty wins by KO/TKO. ‘The Spider’s’ first fight in the UFC was in June of 2006, a first round KO of Chris Leben by knee (0:49). Four months later he finished Rich Franklin for the MW Title (1st 0:49). Silva went on a streak of sixteen straight wins in the UFC, fourteen of those were finishes (11 KO/TKO).
Chris Weidman ended that streak nearly three years ago (6/6/13) with a second round KO (1:18) and took the MW belt at UFC 162.
A leg injury that December in the rematch forced Silva to mend. A January 2015 win over Nick Diaz was later overturned by NAC. The #7 ranked MW hasn’t won a fight since he TKO’d Stephan Bonner at Light Heavyweight, in October of 2012.

The ninth ranked MW in the UFC, Gegard Mousasi is 37-6 with nineteen wins by KO/TKO and twelve by submission. He is coming off a TKO loss to Uriah Hall (second 0:35) last September. Prior to that ‘The Dreamcatcher’ had won two straight, including a first round (1:10) TKO of Dan Henderson 1/24/15. He takes on #10 Thales Leites.
Leites is also fresh off a loss, a SD to Main Eventer, Michael Bisping 7/18/15. Before that he rattled off eight straight with three finishes, two of those by strikes and he choked Tim Boetsch unconscious with a second round arm triangle (3:45) 1/31/15.
