It looks like Chris Weidman has added another impressive accomplishment to his resume, as the UFC middleweight champ reportedly rushed to the aid of an elderly neighbour, who was in need of medical help.

The following post recently appeared on Weidman’s  wife’s Instagram account:

Shout out to this man @chrisweidmanufc who just saved our 92 year old neighbors life. She fell onto a glass table and had pieces stuck in her head. She was in her driveway bleeding out in the rain trying to call her daughter on the phone. Chris ran over and brought her inside, cleaned her up and called 911. #myhero

The 30 year-old champion retweeted his wife’s post, and also relayed via Twitter:

Weidman is currently recovering from a hand injury which forced the UFC to postpone a fight with Vitor Belfort. The two were scheduled to meet on December 6th, but now it’s expected they will fight in February, 2015.
