Sean Shelby’s Shoes: What’s next for Chris Weidman after UFC on ESPN 6 loss?

(ALSO SEE: Sean Shelby’s Shoes: What’s next for and UFC on ESPN 6’s other key winners?)

Former UFC middleweight champion Chris Weidman had his hopes for a light heavyweight title run temporarily derailed on Friday when he lost to Dominick Reyes in the UFC on ESPN 6 main event.

Weidman (14-5 MMA, 10-5 UFC) suffered his fifth loss in his past six fights when he succumbed to a first-round TKO at the hands of Reyes (12-0 MMA, 6-0 UFC). He said prior to the fight that he felt the move up would begin a career renaissance, but it did not go his way and now more questions will be raised about his future.

What does the loss mean for Weidman? Watch the video above for thoughts and analysis on his future.
