UFC 210 ended a weird week. There were fights being scratched and added again because of breast-implant controversy, and other fights being stopped because of legal/illegal knees. Wild times.
And then we finally got to the main event between Daniel Cormier and Anthony Johnson. In the end, D.C. submitted Rumble and Twitter reacted in typical Twitter fashion.
To the Hot Tweets!
Wow. Worst game plan, ever, Rumble. #ufc210

Will DC be cocky about this win even after he missed weight and shouldn’t have been allowed to defend his belt? #ufc210

Wow, I was so sure DC was gonna get caught adjusting his waistband. Super impressive finish! #UFC210

And then DC turns on Jimi Manuwa, imploring him not to lie to himself. After that, he dismisses the “ineligible” Jon Jones.
Full. Heel.

“Sit down, young man. Sit down.” God, DC is just on a roll here. #UFC210

Cormier on Jones: who? Is he eligible to fight yet? Get your shit together, young man.
