By FCF Staff

It’s been several days now since Anderson Silva severely broke his leg at UFC 168, and although the fighter hasn’t relayed anything publicly about his fighting future, he seems to be in good spirits.

Recently the 38 year-old legend thanked the fans for all their support, and in a new tweet, Silva posted a picture of himself standing on crutches.

Following his TKO loss to Chris Weidman, Silva immediately underwent surgery to repair his broken leg, and the procedure reportedly went well. The veteran is expected to be sidelined between three to six months.
