UFC 236 reactions: Winning and losing fighters on social media
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 236 in Atlanta, 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.

The defeated
you guys. Thank you for supporting me in all ways… Not just seeing me as an athlete or a fighter, but as a person. Thank you God for allowing me to do what I love. There will always be obstacles and roadblocks that set you back. Trust me I’ve been through a lot. You might get knocked down with some big blows. But if you are able to get up and fight through the struggles and face your fears, doubts, and really fight for your dreams and beliefs….That is what makes you a true warrior in life.
Благодарю всех кто переживал и не переживал.#AAA#ZELIM
