Regarding all odds favoring Weidman (based on threads/posts/comments)

At the beginning I thought there were only fanboys but now I see a lot of people favoring Weidman over Silva.
Much more I was expecting, even guessing which submission would do. Now I can see people really believe Weidman will beat Silva.
Is it a sign that people are being conformed with Silva retiring soon?
I still think AS beat Weidman btw.
