Dang!

That was horrible. Actually heard the leg snap while watching the television. Career ending injury.

they say he will be back in 4-6 months

If you noticed Weidman raised his leg to accept the brunt of the blow at the knee area. It is a trained technique that's known to have this sort of result. At almost 39 years of age, I think Silva is finished.

I can't see him going out like that.

If there was any soft tissue damage along with the obvious broken tibia/fibula, it will take alot longer than 4-6 months.

Hate seeing that type of injury send a guy to retirement but he would be 40 by the time he stepped back in the cage, maybe...round 1 was a 10-8 round for weidman and I don't think it was going to get any better for Anderson. I'm betting he calls it quits and if he doesn't he will not be the same. Time for new kings to surface at 170 and 185

I think he is crazy if he tries to come back. Every person he fights will be going for his leg. At 38 years old it will be hard on him. He should retire and be glad that he is considered one of the greatest MMA athletes of all time.

I think he would be real timid about throwing kicks , especially leg kicks. Which changes his fight game a lot. Take up boxing*for a spell, he's got good hands and may find success
