Mixed martial arts journalism is a serious business. Following the MMA community on Twitter, is not. The following is a light-hearted (and sometimes insightful) look at how the combat sports world viewed UFC on Fox 10 via social networking.

All ya'll laugh at Bendo's Jesus. I bet Josh Thomson goes to church tomorrow.

FOX: where you can watch men concuss and strangle each other for hours but NO SWEARING we cannot have swearing
— Chris Nelson (@3amMMA) January 26, 2014
Ben Henderson continues his amazing streak of winning every close fight he's in. No way this time. Josh Thomson won that with a broken hand.
— Brett Okamoto (@bokamotoESPN) January 26, 2014
Ben Henderson is the nicest guy but he is Leonard Garcia 2.0
— Greg Savage (@TheSavageTruth) January 26, 2014
I actually believe in God now because Bendo has been gifted so many decisions.
— CagePotato.com (@cagepotatomma) January 26, 2014
Benson "Illuminati" Henderson.
— Jon (@jonJpatrick) January 26, 2014
I gave rounds 1,2 and 4 to Josh.
— Dan Henderson (@danhendo) January 26, 2014
I think Josh Thomson just "Hendersoned" Henderson. #UFConFox10
— Tim Kennedy (@TimKennedyMMA) January 26, 2014
Now all we need to do is hope that Bendo doesn't add another stupefying decision win to his resume.

I am not impressed....#GSPvoice
— Anthony Pettis (@Showtimepettis) January 26, 2014
Really surprised by the lack of late-fight hand-squeezing.
— Dann Stupp (@MMAjunkieDann) January 26, 2014
I messed up. But I'll come back Stronger thanks for all the support learned a lot tonight .
— Sergio Pettis (@sergiopettis) January 26, 2014
@MMAjunkieDann The ol' Handaconda choke.
— Mike Chiappetta MMA (@MikeChiappetta) January 26, 2014
Took Thomson all of 45 seconds to do some shit that makes you step back and ask yourself why he isn't the best lightweight in MMA history.
— Jordan Breen (@jordanbreen) January 26, 2014
Bendo pulled guard for an arm triangle. Can only assume he'll eat his own poop in this round.
— Tomas Rios (@TheTomasRios) January 26, 2014
@benfowlkesMMA Yes. YES.

Cerrone's striking targeted the stomach, kidneys, liver and finished with a shot to the jugular. Cross Martins of the organ donor list.
— RJ Clifford (@RJcliffordMMA) January 26, 2014
Martins was out on his feet and almost touched his toes in zombie mode before he even toppled over. Cowboy with the violent physics.
— Jordan Breen (@jordanbreen) January 26, 2014
A new GSP commercial no wonder why he took time off he had to learn his lines. #tweetofthenight
— Sherdog (@TheSherdoggy) January 26, 2014
Easy on the 'Sergio Pettis hype-trail derailed' talk. He was a 20-year-old prospect with limitless potential before the fight and still is.
— RJ Clifford (@RJcliffordMMA) January 26, 2014
This is the perfect time for Sho' Nuff to storm the cage and challenge Caceres, Mayhem Miller style. #UFConFOX10
— Tommy Toe Hold (@TommyToeHold) January 26, 2014
Sergio Pettis said he plans to hit Bruce Leroy in this round...and then hit puberty. #UFConFox10

Hey! Lenny and Squiggy are cage side. Oh wait. That's mark ratner

Alex Caceres did NOT want to join the Pett15 Club
— Chris Nelson (@3amMMA) January 26, 2014
Alex Caceres is everything that I miss about the 1970s, encapsulated in one fighting kung fu afro.

Pretty Tony got the good hairline in the family, Sergio got that Paul George brow-creeping war helmet outline.
— Jordan Breen (@jordanbreen) January 26, 2014
The UFC just announced they will now have a Cup Camera since Hugo Viana already has a Tripod. #UFConFox10

Another missed nickname opportunity: Chico "The Stranger" Camus. "The Plague" would also work. #UFConFOX10

For MMA watchers that don't really like MMA, Viana-Hernandez was a nice scrap. For MMA watchers who really like MMA, wasn't so bad either.
— Josh Gross (@yay_yee) January 25, 2014
Not only did Hernandez lose the fight but he lost the Running Man dance off to Nate @NateRockQuarry
— TJ De Santis (@TJDeSantis) January 25, 2014
I admit I have pulled a Hernandez on the rec league bball court, mocking other team for stalling when they are up by 20 on the Simple Jacks.
— Brett Okamoto (@bokamotoESPN) January 25, 2014
A little late blooming, but Daron Cruickshank eventually blossoms with spectacular violence to finish off Mike Rio's contract. Lathery.
— Jordan Breen (@jordanbreen) January 25, 2014
I'm joining Karate
— phil baroni (@philbaroni) January 25, 2014
I've been waiting for this on a consistent level. Kick, Daron! Kick like no one is watching, you beautiful boy!

Ya know, kids, I can smell a split decision like a fart in a car. And I just got a whiff ...

Shawn Jordan's knockout of Russow was decent, but to say he built the United Center? I don't know.
— Eric Jackman (@NewYorkRic) January 25, 2014
Maybe we were too hard on Nikita Krylov and Soa Palelei. They're a combined 2-0 since their UFC 164 classic.
