I mean whats the alternative?  He could've been in the same boat as Chuck Liddel there at the end.  Just lickin the mustard jar and getting his ass kicked until he retired.
IMHO I think its a blessing in disguise.  At least now he'll be able to end his career as a legend instead of the old vet that needs to be forced into retirement.  :shrug: Its better to burn out then fade away.

For all of you guys asking if weidman did that on purpose..

Yes he raised his leg to block that kick on purpose. Its an extremely common technique that comes from Muay Thai, usually somebody blocks with the shin (hurts like fuck but the kicker moreso). Now he couldn't possibly have checked that kick knowing he would break silva's leg but its not impossible that his coaches taught him to block with his knee to hurt silva but I dont think anybody expected his leg to break

to anyone saying he's coming back, why would he? this rematch was so hyped up then he jumped in the ring and completely humiliated himself, honestly he had no business fighting weidman again, it was clear he was gonna lose within the first round, just not that he'd snap his own leg in half.

Nope, totally wrong. Historically silva has started slow in most fights. He always sizes up his opponents movement, range and patterns. He is a counter striker and uses the 1st to analyse his opponent. I think most ufc fans who know what they're talking about would say this, and if you compare the 2nd round to the 1st you will see a definite difference.

i don't understand how someone could try to brake a bone of a foe by blocking a strike. the lack of logical thinking is mind bending.
but that aside: these are prize fights, the goal is to win; so in a larger more general 'did he really try to hurt that guy?' vain of what you're asking: yes, he wanted to win the fight, buy causing harm to his foe while taking as little damage to himself as possible.

that may be so but he came SO SO SO close to being knocked out in the first round, the fight was incredibly close to being called before he managed to get back up.

Silva wasn't going to win regardless of the leg break.
