Snapshot of the Day: Jason MacDonald Leg Break

Jason Macdonald on twitter:
"Broken tibia and fibia and dislocated ankle! Surgery tomorrow night....."
Joe Rogan on the UG:
"MacDonald was trying to stop the takedown and his leg got caught under him as he fell backwards. It was nasty. He knew it was broken immediately and called the ref over while he was on the bottom in side control with his leg up in the air and his ankle looking nasty."
Plus a picture of Patrick Cote's broken hand after the jump.

Wow, no wonder they didnt show it

I was so confused when I saw it ended in the first round and they didn’t show it after the Davis/Goulet fight when there was about 20 min left in the broadcast.

I can’t imagine the pain of that leg injury. I like Jason as a fighter. He always shows up in shape and ready to fight. Hope he gets another shot to come back.

I like Jason too

But, let’s face it— time has passed him by. He’s aged.

I suppose you are right. By the time it takes to heal all of this and then get back in shape, he will be even more aged.

He should have taken this. Too bad. If he won, I would’ve raked it in with a Shogun/Meathead/MacDonald parlay.

Sure glad Lesnar got his shit straightened out.

Oof

Sorry to hear that.

Also--

Yes, I did pick him to win the fight. I just think he’s not gonna be hanging around for long and this doesn’t help matters. His winning days are done.

Something I thought about during the Machida/Shogun fight...

When you have a dude against the cage and you’re throwing knees to the thighs, as Shogun was doing, it seems that eventually the two fighter’s knees will collide. I have never seen it happen, just wanted to know if yall have seen it before. It seems with the amount of force it would shatter both fighter’s kneecaps.

But man, to break all those bones in your leg at once has got to be beyond excruciating. Good luck to that guy, hope he recovery goes as fast as possible.

I wonder which one would be worse to watch; this dudes leg snapping or seeing the Sid Vicious leg break from jumping off the 2nd rope back in WCW. Look up "WCW Sid Vicious Leg break " to see it if you want.

Knocked knees, not shattered my leg.

Tan Dan was disgusted with Salter’s celebration, rightfully.

it looks like he says, “hey! stop man” after he raises Salter’s hand..

This guy is either an asshole or a moon. If you can’t control yourself to not act like that in a situation such as this, you need help, whether it be an attitude adjustment or a brain transplant.

by H8ff0000 on May 9, 2010 6:10 PM EDT up reply actions  

edit, replace moon with moron. BE should have an edit button IMO.

by H8ff0000 on May 9, 2010 6:12 PM EDT up reply actions  

ACTUALLY, that's awesome.

i think i’m gonna start using ‘moon’, if that’s ok with you… and you should too. i hope you read this comment.
