- Chris Weidman choked a guy out into convulsion for not paying $5K
- “The All-American” gave the man a choice to pay or get choked out
Chris Weidman had to choke one of his poker buddies after refusing to pay $5K.
Weidman had to do it
The former UFC middleweight champion found himself in a surprising and intense situation during a poker game with friends. After some rounds of poker, one of his buddies apparently lost a total of $5,000. Weidman then presented him with a choice and it’s to either pay the sum or face the consequences of being choked out by a professional MMA fighter.
In a shocking twist, the poker player chose to forgo the payment. Instead of settling the debt in a more conventional manner, he willingly opted to be choked out by “The All-American,” which turned out to be a wrong decision.
As Weidman’s choke went deeper, the man slightly lost consciousness and ended up having some mild and brief seizures. It was a moment that left onlookers and even Weidman a bit confused and worried but relieved once the man regained consciousness.

“He Lost in poker last night. It was either pay 5k or get choked unconscious! What do you do?,” Weidman wrote in Instagram.
Weidman is coming off a defeat
Weidman was just two weeks away from being TKO’d by Eryk Anders at UFC 310. After that devastating loss, the 40-year-old is now being urged by fans to call it a career and finally retire for good.
However, it appears that despite being old, Weidman could still put a grown man to sleep with his skills.
