Some say Machida could be next for the winner of Chris Weidman vs. Vitor Belfort, but what about Jacare Souza? Some could argue that the Strikeforce vet and constant middleweight contender should be next. Jacare was able to shut down Carmont‘s wrestling and employ his own while keeping the fight on the feet when he wanted to.
Souza was unable to finish the fight despite having Carmont in trouble early in the first round and at the end of the third with rear naked choke attempts. Souza won the fight via unanimous decision. Watch the highlights and decide if Souza should be next, not Machida.
