The highly anticipated UFC 307 event is just around the corner, with several intriguing events expected to unfold. Interestingly, ahead of that, it wasn’t one of the featured fighters who stole the show at the weigh-ins; it was none other than middleweight fighter Chris Weidman. On the live show, he discussed his first date story with his wife, Marivi Weidman, leaving everyone shocked.
At the UFC 307 weigh-ins, Weidman shared an unforgettable anecdote about his first date with his wife. Stephen Thompson insisted the panel of Laura Sanko and Daniel Cormier ask the former middleweight champ about the story. Weidman proceeded to recount the story of how he accidentally had a gastrointestinal mishap at his future wife’s house. As such, it led to an awkward situation where he had to dispose of his waste in her trash can.
I had to go to the bathroom. She had a little garbage can in her room, and I filled it up, I diarrhea-ed all the way up, and then I had to take my sock off, some fell out, I threw a sock over it. She came out, I took the garbage bag out, I threw it into the garbage outside, came back inside… I sh*t in her bedroom, and she still loves me

Sanko and Daniel Cormier seemed shocked after hearing that story. Sanko, in particular, even questioned Weidman about why he did not use another bathroom. Following that, the latter explained that there was only one bathroom, and his future wife was using it. Additionally, the 40-year-old admitted that he had nowhere to go and couldn’t go outside because her parents were home.

When it comes to Weidman’s UFC career, the 40-year-old was once one of the most formidable middleweight fighters. He had a nine-win streak since his debut fight for the promotion. During that stretch, he defeated some of the biggest UFC legends, including Anderson Silva and Vitor Belfort. His most recent win came against Bruno Silva a few months ago. Currently, Weidman is scheduled to fight Eryk Anders at UFC 309 in November.

Chris Weidman has always been seen as a gentleman in the fighting community. Throughout his impressive career, fight fans have seldom witnessed him engaging in controversial behavior. Prior to this recent incident, there were not many buzzing stories about Weidman, aside from the controversial Bruno Silva eye poke and Uriah Hall leg break.
The fight fans appeared to be taken aback by Weidman’s story. Many people were particularly struck by Laura Sanko’s response to the narrative. Take a look at a few of the responses below:
