Again,Silva's leg did not break itself. Defense matters.
Of coarse defence matters and it was clearly something Weidman had worked on for this fight

I'm just saying the doubters where claiming before the fight that Weidman got lucky in the first fight and those same doubters will be claiming Silva was unlucky with the leg break.

Another round or two of Weidman dominating Silva followed by a submission or a knocked out and the remaining doubters would have had to shut their mouths for good. Silva was lucky the fight wasn't stopped in the first round anyway as SlammedMedia mentioned.

I think it'll go down as the leg check that ended Anderson Silva's career
