We’re so proud of our team! Find out how they’ve been doing, as well as what else has been going on at our gym lately.
Since the early days when the sport was anything but a mainstream endeavor, the MMA industry has thrived and survived through various websites, forums, and – perhaps most importantly – social-media platforms.
Fighters interact with fans, each other and many more through the likes of Twitter, Facebook and Instagram, which helps outsiders get a deeper look into the minds of the athletes.
Following Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 139 in Denver, several of the winning and losing fighters, along with their coaches, training partners or family members, took to social media to react to the event or share a message with supporters.
Check out some of those reactions.

If I can get a guarantee that Bobby will not lose his win bonus with a No Contest, then I’m gonna appeal. If he loses the win bonus, then I’m just gonna leave it alone…but I would like to run it back! #UFC @bobby_thewlfmn

There were so many variables I see now that I didn’t see last night. Knowledge is power. Now I know.
