Why terrible? Round one was a clear win for Weidman, but not unexpected as Silva is notorious for "feeling out" his opponents in the first round, anyway. Consensus at our table was that Silva would come out in the second and utilize leg kicks to slow down Weidman, and lessen the likelihood of a takedown. That seemed to be what was going on, until the snap-fold.
Unfortunate conclusion to what could have been an epic contest, but terrible?
besides corey hill, whos a complete random, thats the worst injury ive ever seen. Having it happen to the GOAT mma fighter makes it a terrible terrible ending.
also apparently he cracked his shin on the 1st leg kick that was checked, then he threw it full force again and shattered it on the 2nd check. unreallll
I didn't bet on it... felt it was too close to call... I miss the days 8 years ago when all the great fighters fought for too long at the end of their careers... Was easy money back then

well played
yeah, gotta feel for the guy. no one cares about his bruise.
But how lucky is that Meisha Tate chick getting to get so up close and personal with Rousey.
