    Default Anderson "Spider" Silva... forever legend (spoiler) (graphic content)

    What a brutal way to end a legendary career. There goes the greatest fighter that's ever graced the UFC octagon.

    No way he's coming back after that!

    That appears to be moderately painful. Shinbone meet kneebone. Shinbone lose every time. Tib-fib displaced fracture. I'm guessing he needed to sit down after that.

    As much as a douchebag as I have always thought Anderson Silva to be, I never want to see anybody go down with an injury like this. Yes, he is a dick, but he still may go down as the greatest MMA fighter of all time. I don't think he comes back from this. If somebody told me at the beginning of the night that one of tonight's fighters ends up in the hospital to treat a horrific break, Tate would be the first fighter that came to mind.

    I actually watched a buddy of mine do that in a soccer game. Grossest thing I've ever seen. He was such a badass about it though. He's a doctor so he knew right away what he'd done. Called his own ambulance and everything. Such a baller.
