Twitter reacts to Arlovski’s KO of Silva
Then Twitter did what it does, and exploded with shock and praise for the former UFC heavyweight champion Andrei Arlovski for his knockout of Antonio Silva.
UFC heavyweight Andrei Arlovski overcame four-and-a-half to one odds to knock out Antonio “Bigfoot” Silva in the first round at UFC Fight Night 51 on Saturday night, in Brasilia, Brazil.
As always Twitter reacted.

I’ve seen this fight go down many times and according to EA MMA, if Arlovski spams right hooks the entire fight, he wins.

Bigfoot at 53.5% Bigfoot best win method: Dec (25.9%) Arlovski best win method: TKO (20.2%) Feels like should be more Bigfoot destruction

I said this a couple times this week but pretty wild that Bigfoot, coming off a suspension, ends up returning to the cage before Hunt.
Bloody Elbow @BloodyElbow
Dancing Bigfoot sounds like a craft beer.
Ben Fowlkes @benfowlkesMMA
Ohhhhhh. Arlovski drops Bigfoot with a right hand and then hammerfists him into the land of wind and ghosts. Brutal.
