36-year-old fighter out for extended period
Former UFC middleweight champion Chris Weidman has successfully undergone surgery after breaking his leg against Urijah Hall at UFC 261 in Jacksonville.
“It was terrible. Sometimes in life troubles happen and plans collapse. It’s been a long day but I’m so happy to finally see my man after surgery. Everything went well, thank God!” – said the fighter’s wife, Marivi Weidman.
Recall that the fight ended already at the 17th second after the first round, when Weidman struck a low kick with his right foot and broke his shin.
