Both are around the same age. Weidman 39, Ferguson 40.

Tony Ferguson is in a 7 fight losing streak, while Chris Weidman has lost 7 fights out of 10.

However going based on hurting their careers/legacy I think I'm going to lean towards Chris Weidman, just because how he has been in interviews and how acts outside the cage.

The guy has made himself look like a fool this tail end of his career, it's pretty sad.

Tony never really did anything that could even come close to Weidman beating Anderson twice (and not least becoming the one to dethrone Anderson). Tony wasn't even ever champ.

Weidman at some point was actually the man to beat, and he was well on his way of becoming a GOAT-contender.

So obviously Weidman has fallen the most - but only if taken into consideration where he once was,
 
Tony by far, he is 0-7 and he taken so much punishment in those fights as well. He is a total shell of himself. Chris has won fights and hasn't taken anywhere near as many flush shots. Chris is only 3-4 in his last 7 fights in comparison.. yeah its not a world beater record but its not overly bad either.
 
I voted tony but now that im thinking, weidman was a 3 time defending champion who went on to have such an abysmal record. Tony never reached those heights so the drop off isn’t as steep. I’m not sure

That's what I was saying, my man :)
 
I will say Weidman due to the horrible injuries and massive damage taken. Even though Tony's had his fair share of damage too, Weidman has faced some brutal KOs
 
Well as Weidman just won a fight and looked good doing it... it would seem that it's not even close.

Tony has looked very bad for a very long time at this point :(
 
Weidman was winning that fight with Bruno Silva, shame it got ruined by the eyepoke shit, we all thought Weidman was about to get Massacred by Bruno but he didn’t.
 
Tony has looked worse for longer and he’s taken some serious damage, but Chris leg injury is hard to top
 
Chris Weidman can at least stand his ground and pose some sort of a threat for a round. Whereas Tony looks like an injured animal with its back against the wall and trying to survive.

On the other hand like another poster said Chris Weidman had a better peak and career as champion. So technically the Chris has fallen harder from the top.

I guess in this challenge nobody is a winner.
