Machida was facing me when he hit that KO and as soon as ref stepped in he ran over to downed Munoz and said "im sorry!".

@MMARoasted drank PEEdiaLITE (get it) lololololol

KO happened with the body kick cuz Machida feinted w/kick prior & Mark's hands went low. Head kick came later because of it. Impressive!

The whole hand on the ground thing seems like more of a loophole than a necessary safety measure at this point.

That's such a great rule. Really makes sense and meaningfully enhances careers. Clearly awards fight to appropriate winner. Love it. #KillMe

Rosi Sexton's corner have volunteered her to finish up that third round for Jimmo.

You can tell the quality of a card by the placement of Ryan Jimmo on it.

Walk in the Parke. Jon Tuckered out. Don't want to see either as a headline, thanks. 30-27, Norman Parke. Quality effort right there.

Alessio Sakara anonymously stayed employed by UFC since 2005 but he's dropped 4 in a row. The UFC career cockroach may have died in England.

I wasn't paying atttention. Did Buffer say Lineker's weight in stone or boulder?

Hallmann's cornerman is killing me right now. All I can think about is Red Track Suit Homie screaming at Ivan Drago.

@ekc Joachim Hansen-Masakazu Imanari still has to be the ultimate.

Andrew Craig's public profile finna blow up when the MMA public uncovers that he's mentally ill and believes he is Jared Leto in Panic Room.
— Jordan Breen (@jordanbreen) October 26, 2013
30-25 Andrade, a total whooping. Y'all some paternalistic crybabies, souls moaning for Rosi. She's a tough pro. Where were tears for Diego?
— Jordan Breen (@jordanbreen) October 26, 2013
Brilliant point by @jordanbreen. If you really want woman's MMA to gain equality, treat them the same as the men. Asskickings included.

This is a violent sport. Suck it up folks. Normally you fuckers would be crying thats its FOTY stuff
— White Neon (@LongBeachOGKush) October 26, 2013
. @MarcRatnerUFC please never use this referee for any UFC event in the future. This is abusive and negligent on his part.

Whiteford didn't even try to posture up out of that triangle. All he had to do was posture up and out to his left. Is this even MMA?

I can't tell if Brad Scott has a beard or if his face is on fire.
