Crowd reaction shots are my favorite. Saw the audience collectively lose their shit on that last one. Lol #UFC198

Cleveland's Stipe Miocic is the UFC heavyweight champion. Browns winning the Super Bowl next?
— Michael David Smith (@MichaelDavSmith) May 15, 2016
Well, at least Werdum went out like Senna.
— Tomás Ríos (@TheTomasRios) May 15, 2016
Man USADA really did a number on some of these guys
— Jon Bones Jones (@JonnyBones) May 15, 2016
The last person to walk out to Senna's Theme in Brazil was Maldonado, who got flatlined in under a minute by... Miocic.

Bad foreshadowing.
Spotted! @JacareMMA and the middleweight division... pic.twitter.com/6WRvTMS4ZC

Vitor Belfort is the poster child for PED use. Dubious legacy. Quits in tough spots. Squandered potential. #UFC198 #UFC #MMA
— Danny Acosta (@AcostaIsLegend) May 15, 2016
It's been 15 years but you still know that when Vitor pulls guard, he's basically giving up.
— Jack Slack (@JackSlackMMA) May 15, 2016
I wonder if Jacare ever gets the check. pic.twitter.com/nKusHCsk4k

The entire Women's division (and some of the men) after watching @criscyborg annihilation. pic.twitter.com/DiTySH8QYs

Leslie Smith got that stankey leg on lock #UFC198
— Brandon Frm NJ (@BrandonfrmNJ) May 15, 2016
The hell is Leslie Smith yelling about? You were saved from something worse than death. #UFC198
— Andreas Hale (@AndreasHale) May 15, 2016
Cyborg fights are such a spectacle. It brings out the side of humanity that once liked to watch people fed to lions in a coliseum #UFC198
— Bill Wetzel (@billthebutcher2) May 15, 2016
Time for the human sacrifice. Props to Leslie Smith for going willingly. Only way to keep the sun from devouring the earth.
— John S. Nash (@heynottheface) May 15, 2016
Leslie Smith bout to be joining Jim Morrison "On The Other Side" #UFC198
— Greg Savage (@TheSavageTruth) May 15, 2016
Jose Aldo's longest showing on a PPV in a while....
— Seán Sheehan (@SeanSheehanBA) May 15, 2016
A pin just dropped at Arena da Baixada. I heard it.
— Jeff Wagenheim (@jeffwagenheim) May 15, 2016
Barberena is costing Dana White a lot of money lol. That guy has heart & doesn't care about pre-fight hype or rankings #UFC198
— Kel Dansby (@KelDansby) May 15, 2016
Meanwhile, Barberena is turning into a better version of Pat Healy. #UFC198
— Patrick Wyman (@Patrick_Wyman) May 15, 2016
I see you, Warlley Alves. Trying to tell ref Barberena tapped when he didn't. You sly poo.

new sex move called the Matt Brown, you tap with 30 seconds on the clock then flip her off when she boo's #UFC198 @Izi_Garcia @MMARoasted
— Mars Herns (@MarsHerns) May 15, 2016
Here's the full Matt Brown walkout where you can clearly see him get hit by fans on 3 occasions. pic.twitter.com/GmvayRP4xk

UFC need to invest in a popemobile for away fighters in Brazil. Get reebok to sponsor it too. pic.twitter.com/i2VBd2XlrX
— Alan Murphy (@AlanMurphyMMA) May 15, 2016
Throwing punches at Matt Brown as he walks to the cage? That's not a hostile crowd. That's a suicidal one.
— Dann Stupp (@DannStupp) May 15, 2016
I hate calling for fighter retirements, but it's hard to watch Nate fight these days. His fights are nailbiters for all the wrong reasons.
— Stephie (@CrooklynMMA) May 15, 2016
Marquardt is due for a shitblastingly brutal KO/TKO loss. It's just how his career works these days.
— D.E.O. (@ImJustDEO) May 15, 2016
DADA 5000 just had three heart attacka watching this Yancy/Trinaldo fight. #UFC198
— Jonathan Snowden (@JESnowden) May 15, 2016
What a fight...however I've seen more defense displayed at the NBA All-Star Game #UFC198
— MMA Roasted (@MMARoasted) May 15, 2016
Well, that was amazingly silly until Tan Dan decided tonight was the night he wanted to watch the light go out in a man's eyes.
— Connor Ruebusch (@BoxingBusch) May 15, 2016
This dude Meideiros can't even stand up and the terrible ref is just like "So? Big deal. Fight pussy." #UFC198
— Jonathan Snowden (@JESnowden) May 15, 2016
Medeiros should not be taking this beating. This is insanity. Gross. Awful and unnecessary.
— Luke Thomas (@SBNLukeThomas) May 15, 2016
Oh my god, Brian. Preach.
— Suzanne Davis (@SoozieCuzie) May 15, 2016
It always takes me FOREVER to get my hands up to my face when I'm with a long guy.
Gotta block the eyes, gurl.
Imagine hostile aliens looking down on earth & they see Cris Cyborg savage Leslie Smith tonight & immediately call the invasion off #UFC198
— Bill Wetzel (@billthebutcher2) May 15, 2016
Rob Font, ha more like Rob Times New Roman #UFC198
— Brandon Frm NJ (@BrandonfrmNJ) May 15, 2016
Lil Nog-Pat Cummins was Big Nog-Brendan Schaub Lite. Cummins is unfortunately not made for MMA striking. So awkward, robotic and hittable.
— Jordan Breen (@jordanbreen) May 14, 2016
Patrick Cummins has some good tools but his chin is just too big of an Achilles' heel in the 205 pound division.
— Todd Martin (@ToddMartinMMA) May 14, 2016
Pat Cummings had a lay up fight and he converted into a barista #UFC198
— Brandon Frm NJ (@BrandonfrmNJ) May 14, 2016
I should have made a Lil Nog schadenfreude compilation.
— The Naked Gambler (@NakedGambling) May 14, 2016
I'll probably get some good clips for one here though.
Pat Cummins's teeth are sponsored by The Gap #UFC198

The difference in the level of commentary between Goldie and Stann is astounding. #UFC198 pic.twitter.com/igJum9XKS8
— Yellow Power Ranger (@Sugarhigh5me) May 14, 2016
Can't believe Tukhugov didn't spout some nasty Russian swears at Herdy there at the end of the round. He's a bigger man than me.
— Connor Ruebusch (@BoxingBusch) May 14, 2016
No fouls are going to be called against Brazilians tonight - didn't you get the memo?
— jim genia (@jim_genia) May 14, 2016
I attended the UFC's stadium shows in Toronto and Stockholm. The atmosphere in this place right now is something special though.
— Mike Bohn (@MikeBohnMMA) May 14, 2016
FYI here's the judges and referee assignments for tonight. #UFC198 pic.twitter.com/A8d6tfiJ6d
