Chris Weidman on UFC comeback plans: ‘I’m not doing it for money’
Chris Weidman and Uriah Hall at the UFC 268 ceremonial weigh-ins.Former UFC middleweight champion Chris Weidman suffered a horror injury in his fight with Uriah Hall last April. In that fight Weidman inexplicably broke his leg in the exact same manner as Anderson Silva did during their UFC title rematch back in 2013.
Since that injury Weidman has been steadfast in his desire to fight another day. This is despite Weidman needing multiple surgeries to repair his leg and an extremely long rehab process.
Weidman recently appeared on MMA Fighting’s The Fighter vs. The Writer podcast where he discussed his recovery and his hopes for the imminent future.
