Christopher James “Chris” Weidman Wiki Biography
Christopher James Weidman, of Irish and German descent, was born on 17 June 1984 in Baldwin, New York, USA.
Chris is a mixed martial artist, currently under the organization of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), and is best known for ending the former UFC Middleweight Champion Anderson Silva’s seven-year, 17 fight unbeaten streak.
The success he has had in MMA has boosted his net worth to where it is at present.
\As of early 2016, sources tell us about a net worth of $800,000, largely gained through a prosperous mixed martial arts career.
Many would argue that if not for the damage caused by Hurricane Sandy to his home and injuries that occurred over the course of his career, his net worth may have been greater.
Notwithstanding this, Chris has done well to increase his income.
Chris became involved in different sporting activities at a young age and became particularly interested in wrestling.
He attended Baldwin Senior High School and struggled to become a Nassau County and New York State champion while at school.
He decided to train in MMA when he learned he couldn’t achieve Olympic qualification and ultimately became a full-time fighter.
In May 2015, he received his black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
Chris defended his belt against Lyoto Machida after the Silva series, winning the fight by unanimous decision.
As he had to recover from injuries, his next match was in 2015.
He finally fought against Victor Belfort in UFC 187 and won.
He lost the match via a TKO in the fourth round during the fourth defense of his title against Luke Rockhold and both of them were awarded Fight of the Night honors.
In June 2016, they are scheduled for a rematch.
Chris has been married to Marivi in his personal life since 2009, and they have three children.
He is a Christian as well.
Weidman, working with the non-profit organization Staten Strong, took some time off to volunteer to help restore homes for the Hurricane Sandy victims.
