At that moment, his leg snapped and he fell to the canvas in what MMA Junkie called "one of the most gruesome breaks in UFC history."
This was the main event for UFC 168, held at the MGM Grand. The fight was called at 1:16 in the second round.
"No matter what happened in this fight, he's still the greatest of all time. I wish him the best, and God bless him," Weidman said, according to MMA Junkie. "That was the No. 1 thing I got hit with the first fight. I worked a lot with guys with kicks. But it's still crazy how that happened. There was a point I was just thinking, 'Ref, stop the fight.' His eyes were in the back of his head for a lot of those punches."
Easily the most disgusting leg injury I've ever seen..Leg snap. Weidman wins. #UFC168
