A Night of Tweets: UFC on Fuel TV 9
The below posts are a light-hearted look at how the combat sports world viewed UFC on Fuel TV 9 via social networking.
At least Mousasi got to practice his jab. And Latifi got to practice bleeding.

Well, Latifi did follow the Rocky theme in making it to the final bell, losing and leaving a bloody mess... #UFConFUEL9

I really hope this is just Mousasi's warmup and Wanderlei is about to come out and say it wasn't an April Fools joke

I'm shocked the UFC allowed Ryan Couture to use his own last name.

Did Mike Goldberg just call Reza Madadi "Sweden's most popular fighter?" Gustafsson is cut, not dead.

“@jordanbreen: Brad Pickett is the best wrestler in British MMA history.” Since Lord Steven Regal.
— Reminton Kelly (@BrandonfrmNJ) April 6, 2013
You know, if Brad Pickett really did have the kind of power the nickname "One Punch" suggests, he'd really be an extraordinary fighter.

TUF 17 guys up next. I think they should get Amagov back in the cage to fight both of them.

Amagov now needs to clean the beard and get it back to Court McGee before his next fight.

I believe these awkward gaps where no one talks are known as "Mike Goldberg has gone potty" moments.

As promised, McGregor comes out draped in the Irish flag. No hat, no shirt, just tights & shoes. No sponsors? He ain't got a pot to piss in!

Alloway has taken himself down twice this round. FightMetric must be confused.

Film study pays off. Lawlor's guillotine is the one serious, sudden, fight-ending technique that he can bust out, so why shoot in like that?
— Jordan Breen (@jordanbreen) April 6, 2013
Michael Kuiper getting in Tom Lawlor's ass early. Lawlor's all "Hey, don't hurt my dog!" and Kuiper is all "YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT PAIN IS!!!1"
