TimLivingston Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Watching it live, I could hardly see what happened, but when I saw him holding his leg, I knew I was watching exactly zero replays. Weidman truly is the luckiest man alive. You think the ol' race-baiter is sitting there thinking highly of Weidman after two lucky breaks? ...fucking puns.

RonL21 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 For me, Rousey/Tate was Fight of the Night. Crowd was hot the whole fight and it delivered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Spanish Waiter Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Race baiter? Chael? Anyway I am now on the Vitrtor bandwagon. Then I think I'm done with MMA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bear Wyatt Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 I see Vitor getting taken down and gassing out hard after Round 1. Weidman might be "generic" whatever that means, but he's a bad man. I got Weidman by ground and pound KO in Round 2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzalez Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Here's the GIF for the sick fucks who want to see it I didn't look at the initial replay because of how gruesome it was, so I thought he hit his shin, but now looking at the gif you can clearly see that he hit his knee when Weidman had it in the blocking position. Which is one of the worst places to strike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimLivingston Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Of course, Chael. Because that's how he's seen, which I think is pretty hilarious, actually. One thing to say about an injury like this: It IS a fracture, which if treated properly, can come back just as strong as before the injury. I don't think Silva's quite done yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 I see Vitor getting taken down and gassing out hard after Round 1. Weidman might be "generic" whatever that means, but he's a bad man. I got Weidman by ground and pound KO in Round 2. Vitor went to the 4th with Jones, and almost snapped his arm off. I like Vitor's chances. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greggulator Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 I don't watch MMA at all but I saw the kick. Man, that is terrifying. My first thought is that it's the second most disturbing bone fracture in sports in memory, behind Kevin Ware in the NCAA Tournament last year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IHFP Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Kevin Ware already returned to play, so it is possible to recover from this injury even though it looks gruesome. Whether Anderson wants to return is another question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether Anderson wants to return is another question. I mean, it's way too early to say if a guy can return not. The Ware injury didn't have the close-up replay that Silva and Sid Vicious have. But it has enough to know it's messed up. But makes it horrifying are the reactions of everyone on the court. Like his teammates on the bench freaking out is absolutely nightmarish.

Kuetsar Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Jesus fuck that was gruesome Thats some Sid top rope shit. . .Jesus, even if he can come back why would he? Nothing more to prove. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 I mean really even if he can come back, does anybody want to see it? I'd like to know Silva ended after this, recovered, and lived happily training guys & being with his family. Not becoming a stepping stone, and a future sad 30 for 30 subject.

Antacular Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Here's the million dollar question, since someone has to ask it: Assuming Anderson fully recovers and decides to come back, and that by the grace of the All-Mighty himself Weidman is still champ, does Dana do Silva/Weidman 3? IMHO, they gots to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawful Metal Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Fuck Chris Weidman and his anti-charisma. Might as well rename him Bo Dallas. Cluelessly celebrating after Anderson breaks his leg was just wrong. And Stone Cold Ronda Rousey is boss. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goes off into the sunset. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
