Two years ago, Chris Weidman suffered one of the most brutal injuries in UFC history.
28 months removed from his devastating first-round leg break against Uriah Hall, ‘All-American’ made his return to the Octagon on August 19, featuring on the UFC 292 prelim card. It was a cause for celebration, but sadly, things did not go Chris Weidman’s way that evening. Matched up with Brad Tavares, Weidman suffered a lopsided unanimous decision loss after Tavares targeted Weidman’s lead leg for a full 15 minutes.
To his credit, Chris Weidman finished the fight, but as it turns out, the former middleweight world champion suffered yet another devastating leg break.
