Michael Bisping scored the biggest win of his mixed martial arts career this past Saturday in London, when he defeated former UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva via unanimous decision.

It was one of the most gruesome injuries we have seen in the UFC when former middleweight champion Anderson Silva broke his leg kicking fellow former middleweight champion Chris Weidman in their rematch at UFC 168 back in 2013. Silva’s coach Luiz Dorea revealed to MMA Fighting that he had suffered an injury in his controversial fight with Michael Bisping, which Silva thought he had broken his leg once again.

Sounds only fair since Anderson Silva went to London to fight Michael Bisping. Silva’s team would love the rematch to be in Brazil, Silva’s home turf. It was a unanimous decision loss for Silva at the O2 Arena in London. That is Silva’s first decision loss since 2000.
