At UFC 261, former middleweight champion Chris Weidman faced Uriah Hall in a pivotal middleweight clash that Weidman hoped would put him one step closer to another title shot. Instead, tragedy struck and now Weidman is just hoping he gets to take steps again.
Just 17 seconds into the first round against Hall, Weidman threw a low kick that Hall checked, which ended up shattering Weidman’s shin in a fashion eerily reminiscent of Weidman’s own victory over Anderson Silva in their rematch. It was a gruesome sight and Weidman was rushed to the hospital for emergency surgery. Following the surgery, Weidman has been in pretty good spirits, updating fans on social media and even cracking the occasional joke, but Monday, Weidman gave another update to fans via Instagram. Even though Weidman is no stranger to difficult recoveries, as you might expect, this one is proving to be more challenging than even he anticipated.

The obvious answer is to spend the day honoring the fallen members of our nation’s military, as you should. But before that, you can spend your weekend watching yet another UFC Fight Night card.
The UFC was merciful to us on the East Coast of the United States and decided to air UFC Fight Night 109 at 1 p.m. ET on Sunday, May 28. Much of this has to do with the card taking place in Stockholm, Sweden, of course. This particular card boasts a main event of Sweden’s favorite son, Alexander Gustafsson, against Brazil’s Glover Teixeira in a pivotal light heavyweight division match-up.
