Yep. But it would never happen because the officials in smaller/less powerful states have made such a career and killing out of the benefits from a life of politics.
oh the horror. Watched it live and yelled out “HIS FUCKING LEG BROKE…HE BROKE HIS FUCKING LEG” and the other guys didn’t know what I was on about. Then they saw the replay. Awful.
It’s really a sad way for his career to end.
It’s also a real bummer for Weidman…his last Silva fight he was frankly winning before the knockout, but nobody gave him credit saying ‘he only won because Silva was caught clowning’
Now he is again legitimately dominating Silva (he knocked him the fuck out in the first couple minutes but Silva woke up when he hit the ground) and dominates him standup and the ground…then this happens. Nobody will give him credit, they will just remember the end of a great champion’s career by fluke injury.
That’s actually Willow Creek Community church. It’s a Christian mass rather than a traditional Catholic mass. I was raised Catholic but about 15 years ago my mom became a born again Christian and really connected with this church. The mass generally consists of bands playing various songs, skits/movies, and a sermon at the end by the pastor. It’s about the exact opposite of a traditional mass.
I agree with everything above except for the fluke part. Silva’s cocky ass deserved every part of that leg snap. If he would have properly trained by stimulating bone osteoblasts his leg would have held up, or even better, he would have broken weidman’s leg. Silva’s technique and power was still there making that a powerful kick but clearly he had some osteopenia going on.
I don’t think this physical injury is career ending because it is only a bone, which heals rapidly compared to tendons and ligaments. Any of the knee ligaments (ACL, MCL, PCL, LCL) popping is a much worse injury. However, I do think the injury he sustain psychologically is career ending…always have that memory, sensation, vision every time he raises that left leg to kick again!
Weidman checked the kick perfectly, I agree with Saki thats its a shame he wont get the credit he deserves. it’ll be interesting to see how the belfort fight goes, per vitor he’s got ‘cheezus’ on his side so he may be hard to beat.
