Provided they didn't know weidman ko'ed anderson in their previous bout and was again winning the second bout (prior to the broken leg)

Silva was the favorite to win the fight

Turned into a perfect hockey stick.

Would have to be very casual being that Weidman has already knocked him out and Silva has had significant difficulty with wrestlers for the last few years.

Ah, I didn't see the fight. I know of Silva, and nothing of the other guy so I thought Weidman was the underdog. To a casual watcher, one can assume that Weidman got lucky.
That's not a casual watcher, I'd call that someone who doesn't watch UFC. Seeing how Weidman already had the belt from his knockout of Silva in their last fight

He understands that "go break a leg" is an old saying of good luck and isn't to be taken literally, right?

Are there any updates on Silva this morning? Just wondering if the surgery went ok...

real-life Dhalsim from Street Fighter?

That's as bad looking as Kevin Ware.

"CHRIS WEIDMAN DEFEATS ANDERSON SILVA IN 2ND ROUND"
Ok, that's one way to put it.

Watched it live. That's career ending shite right there. You know how hard he had to kick for his leg to snap like that? Never been a silva fan, he taunts way too much. But that's one shitty way for the Greatest Fighter of all time to go out.

Update
quote:
"Following Saturday evening's UFC 168 main event, former champion Anderson Silva was taken to a local Las Vegas hospital where he underwent surgery to repair a broken left leg. The successful surgery, performed by Dr. Steven Sanders, the UFC's orthopedic surgeon, inserted an intramedullary rod into Anderson's left tibia. The broken fibula was stabilized and does not require a separate surgery. Anderson will remain in the hospital for a short while, but no additional surgery is scheduled at this time. Recovery time for such injuries may vary between three and six months.

Oh and Fedor is still the GOAT

Broken tibia that low is very difficult to heal.
