Chris Weidman seems to have a fairly everyman commute to work, given his status and what he accomplished in July.

After knocking out Anderson Silva to not only win the UFC’s middleweight title, but end an unprecedented reign for “The Spider” that came with a 16-fight winning streak in the UFC, Weidman still takes the train to train.

Weidman gets on the train on Long Island for the trip into Manhattan, where he goes through one set of workouts on his ground game. He takes the train another hour back home to spend time with his wife and kids. And then he works on his standup game at night.

It’s all very Average Joe for the UFC’s new 185-pound champion, who defends his belt for the first time next week in an historic rematch with Silva at UFC 168 – one of the most anticipated fights in MMA history. But the Average Joe stuff comes as very little surprise, given that it’s Weidman, who carries himself in a blue-collar fashion.

Check out the video above, produced by Weidman sponsor Muscle Milk, and go inside a day in the life of his training camp for Silva. Then don’t miss UFC 168, which takes place on pay-per-view in a week from MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, with full coverage all week here at MMAjunkie.
