Anderson Silva suffered another leg injury at UFC 237 when Jared Cannonier landed an inside leg kick that dropped "The Spider." The sight of Silva grimacing and reaching for his leg after a kick surely reminded fans of Silva's leg snapping on a checked kick by Chris Weidman at UFC 168.
As the moment happened, fighters took to social media to share their reaction.

Down goes Silva with a kick to his right leg. Flashbacks to the Weidman fight, save it looks like it messed up the knee. #UFC237 pic.twitter.com/nstuZrsgVj
