Check out this horror gallery of Weidman braking a leg and shocked face of Uriah Hall after that.
Surgery was completed all good, Weidman is on the long recovery road now and I think this year is finished for him for any training and fighting.
Him being 36 old fighter with six defeats from his last eight fights makes me think that it's time for him to finally retire.

Time to move to next UFC event Reyes vs. Prochazka and I have to be honest and say that I never watched Prochazka fighting so far, but I can see he is KO specialist so I am expectig great fight.


I really don't want to see something like this and the same fate as what happened to the great Anderson Silva his last opponent When the same thing happened is a big major coincidence like he never realized that it may happen to him in the future, but I feel sorry for him no fighter would want the same fate as Silva and Weidman, and Weidman career may be over because even though the same thing happened to him as Silva it may have a big impact for Weidman or traumatize in a different level and yes with his age it is best to just retire.

^  At first glance on the betting market, I think I like Cub Swanson as the underdog here.  It’s more like a test for Chikadze if he’s ready for better competition.  Swanson looked really good and finshed his last opponent who was supposed to be a comer.

I also like Prochazka.  I never really rated Reyes tbh.  Sure he had a great fight vs Jones but he lost to Blachowicz and Jones didn’t look good vs Santos too.  Jones prolly needed a break.  But I’d like to see the line get closer.


I really like Cub Swanson and I might put in a small wager on him. Swanson did look really good during his last fight and is technically very sound standing up. I have to watch more about Prochazka to see how good he is. Reyes is pretty good but yeah, not worth wagering there.

@toptort777 & @bbc.reporter

Thanks, guys!

I was surprised that it was Weidman was the opponent when Anderson broke his leg. What a turn and twist of fate.

It's really a twist of fate, Silva sends a heartfelt message to Weidman and his family he knows the pain because he also suffered that, Uriah Hall is very disappointed he wants to avenge his loss but not this way, if I'm fighting in the MMA I don't want my opponent to suffer that, we see fighters punching and submitting their opponent and we can watch this over and over again but not something like this.
Yeah, these fighters still have their heart and they're just doing it as a sport. For sure the other fighters who would ever have an opponent go through it will also be feeling bad why it had happened but it's an accident.

No one's intention to do it.

UFC on ESPN: Reyes vs. Procházka


Light Heavyweight: Dominick Reyes vs. Jiří Procházka            


Dominick Reyes better be careful with Jiri Prochazka this guys can sure take on any beating and had a decent jumping knee for a good knockout and a great reach than Reyes he's maybe new to UFC but on the Rizin stage he is surely dominating, but I am not saying that he can overpower Reyes because Dominick Reyes has got a skill of his own that can sure make a fighting stand against Jiri Prochazka, But Reyes still needs to be careful because I got a gut feeling that he might lose this one again.

@boyptc. Yes, it also happened to Anderson Silva. Do you know who Anderson’s opponent when it happened? I will leave it for you to research hehehehe.



All the matches are great except this one, Uriah Hall and all the fans are disappointed to end this way it only lasted 17 seconds but the worse 17 seconds I've watched I can feel the bone break, and when Weidman falls to the ground I really feel the agony of Weidman, it's a long medical break for Weidman we all hope he is ok and he can come back again.

That was the most gruesome thing I’ve ever seen. When he actually tried to stand on it before he realized what happened... I felt chills in my entire body. People should be warned before digging up the clip. This reminds me of the Paul George injury sustained playing for the Olympic team, only this was much worse because you had a better view with slow motion and he didn’t immediately realize what happened.

Overall this was a great fight card and I was really impressed with Usman again and he proved once more that he is the best in his weight category, so we are now waiting to see some superfight with some champ from other category, but Dna White is thinking of one more rematch with Covington.
If Kamaru Usman is moving up he will be facing Israel Adesanya and it will be a bad match up for Israel Adesanya because of the wrestling domination of Usman but now both have their opponents, Usman will be facing Colby Covington and Israel Adesanya will be facing Marvin Vettori and eventually we will be seeing that super fight between the two champions.

There was a nice bonus promotion in Stake website for 3 main title fights, and someone could take nice moeny if he placed bets on new champ Rose Namajunas.

^  Yup.  9 finishes out of 13 bouts with the PPV card had all matches finishing ITD.  I wasn’t expecting it to be that good.  

Here’s the post fight press conference.  It’s always good to listen to what Dana White has to say after an event.  He mentions that Nick Diaz is coming back and could be fighting everybody’s favorite itt Chimaev.  Lol.  Why is the UFC doing the Diaz brothers like that.  Nate Diaz is going to fight Leon Edwards.  Cheesy

And check out 262:  https://www.tapology.com/fightcenter/events/77263-ufc-fight-night

That’s a good card too.

I think that the last one (Bobby Knuckles vs Gastelum) had the majority of fights go to a decision, so this is kinda refreshing. Also, 3 title fights mean 75min of actual flight time and I honestly do not have the time to watch 75min for just those 3, I am grateful for cards like this.

Dude have you seen Nick Diaz lately?? He looks like he is in the best shape of his life. Not sure what to make of it, but I ain't gonna lie, I am stocked to see him back. An yeah, I get what you are saying, maybe give ol' Nate a prep fight or two Uncle Dana, geez Smiley Seems like he has something against them or something XD

262 - If it was just Oliveira vs Chandler I'd be happy, but there is so much more. So that would make it the third card in a row that's a banger, it can only go downhill from here.

I had to edit this after I saw your link. I forgot Ferguson is on that card Cheesy Holy crap, I wonder if he still thinks that there are people living in his walls...

Nate Diaz has been my favorite to watch since the first time I watch UFC. now that he is having another fight, I'm sure there will be lots of fans looking forward to watching it too as he is to the other their favorite fighter as well.

The fight earlier was shocking and it counted as the fastest fight and the only fight that conclude with throwing a punch.

I didn't see if anyone has already posted the full results so here it is. Does anyone know if this was one of the fastest cards in recent UFC history? Smiley



@boyptc. Yes, it also happened to Anderson Silva. Do you know who Anderson’s opponent when it happened? I will leave it for you to research hehehehe.



The snap was so strong that I could not bear looking at it, it was a twist of fate Anderson Silva broke his leg when he fought Weidman, it was almost the same scenario, this one really hurt I can feel Chris Weidman pain things like this happen because the leg has no protection, you really have to be very careful throwing that kind of low kick.


Well, it's not really about the legs protection, there is not much that can be done about the shin bone strengthening, it's more because of the way Hall, and Weidman before him, check the kick more on the knee cap than on their shin as the Thais do. I think that Weidman talked about the way he checks it and even leans into it after the second Silva fight.

Cant wait for any info/updates/thoughts/rumors/claims about fans being on this event. Wonder if someone gets positive for covid, will he try to sue UFC. And it would be cool if there will ne no cases after event, that will means that other could also have spectatora during events.

And it was Weidman vs Anderson Silva where Anderson experienced this one. They now both have this broken leg, I don't want to catch how it happen actually but it must be very painful. Lack of calcium I guess.

Masvidal expects a takedown all the time from Usman, didn't see that right straight coming then put him to sleep. Worse that could happen to him.
