<p><span style="color: rgb(80, 80, 80); font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 11.199999809265137px;">Some of the best reactions to fights are immediate, and Twitter is a great vehicle to capture those in fights and post reactions. Lorenzo Fertitta famously said, in so many words, that the appeal of mixed martial arts is that any moment, you will get a big oh sh*t moment, and tonight when Chris Weidman defeated Anderson Silva by injury TKO as Silva broke his leg, Twitter exploded.</span></p>
Below is a collection of tweet's from some of the sports stars, media, and biggest fans:
Dan Henderson: Man, seeing the replay of @ChrisWeidmanUFC and @SpiderAnderson @SpiderAnderson I honestly would hate to see this end his career. Best wishes
Josh Koscheck: That's a career ender. :(
Urijah Faber: Ouch!! Rough sport we're in. @ufc feel for Anderson! Congrats @ChrisWeidmanUFC
Justin Timberlake: That slow-mo replay though... I have no words. #UFC168
Justin Bucholz: Hey fellow mma fighters let's agree to quit with the leg kicks. Gentlemen's agreement. #UFC168
Kenny Florian: Sending #AndersonSilva positive thoughts on a full and speedy recovery. His legacy as one of the best ever is set in stone either way.
Donald Cerrone: I NOW NEVER WANY TO KICK AGAIN WoW!!!
Dominick Cruz: Wow...That accurate of a checked kick hurts with shin guards on-no joke!
Joe Lauzon: Oh. My. God. #ufc168
Bas Rutten: Remember the post I did why you have to open your hips when you kick? Otherwise you connect with the flat part and break your shin.
