Bigfoot calls dibs on Easter. RT @danawhite: Both Hunt and Silva
get their win bonus and I might buy them both their own private
ISLANDS!!!!

Stop worrying if this is better than that fight or this fight.
Enjoy it. It was incredible, unexpected, fun, awesome, amazing,
tremendous...

Didn't Hunt's knee explode like ten minutes ago? The fight gods
magically healed it to satiate the bloodlust of everyone
watching?

Mark Hunt's son is hardcore. He was unfazed by witnessing *that*
in person. Coleman's daughters' heads would have exploded.

Legit one of the best KO's this year. Pure on-point brutality,
Te Huna's collapsing actions were gruesome. Absolute .gif fodder.

Shogun pulled the plug out the back of James Te Huna's head when
he was still in the Matrix. #UFC

The last tine I saw a Hippo take this much punishment was when
Matt Hughes posted his hunting pics. #UFCFightNight

Our boys at @FightMetric have the early
numbers on landed strikes 103-6 for Bader over Perosh. Get that man

Perosh's corner needs to throw the towel. If you can't find the
towel, use your shirt.

if that type of strike makes you go limp, get out of the
sport..... for your own good.

Greg Jackson should make an app of him just shouting positive
things so we can all feel as good as his fighters

UFC FIGHT NIGHT 33 PLAY-BY-PLAY Nick Ring vs Caio Magalhaes
Round 3: I'm cutting myself just to feel something, anything. To
feel alive.
— Chris Nelson (@3amMMA) December

OK, seriously, I would cut Magalhaes' hand off for that
fence-grab. As a referee, I would just keep a little baby machete
on me at all times
— Mike Whitman (@mikewhitmanmma) December

Doc looks at Magalhaes's eye and OKs it. Thinks, 'Man, I should
really do something about these ears while I'm here.'

This is a humble interview and all, but Scoggins would make an
excellent heel turn by making a Steve Irwin/Stingray reference.

This fight is making me want to do something else. Both tonight
and with my life. That's some powerful next-level suck.

Bruno Santos, the kind of guy that plays pure defense while he
has double underhooks. His fights need to come with an open bar or
something.
