Chris Weidman has reached a major milestone in his recovery.

On Saturday, Weidman shared a video of himself walking for the first time since he suffered a gruesome leg injury at UFC 261 in late April. The 36-year-old broke his tibia and fibula, among other injuries.

“I started walking on my own today,” Weidman wrote in the caption. “Big day. I appreciate all the love and support it has motivated me so much.”

Take a look:

That’s great to see.

The future of Weidman’s mixed martial arts career remains unclear. Obviously, whether he ever fights in the octagon again is secondary to his actual recovery.
