Twitter reacts to UFN: Cerrone vs. Miller
The main card of UFC Fight Night 45 featured six fights, and there were six finishes, with only one making it into the third round, and Twitter erupted.
Against a background of the hardcore fanbase arguing that the number of cards (this year will see around 50) is watering down cards, UFN 45 Wednesday night was spectacular. And, of course, Twitter reacted.

•Edson Barboza vs. Evan Dunham
The MMA Podcast @TheMMAPodcast
Edson Barboza has injured SEVEN training partners in the lead up to this fight alone!! – Is that supposed to be a good thing?
Sarah Kaufman @mmasarah
That body kick from Barbosa just grazed Dunham …so painful when that happens. Nice finish from Barbosa
Ben Fowlkes @benfowlkesMMA
Edson Barboza, that is not how you hold a baby.
Seth Kelly @sethkelly
Anyone else thinks we need to get @UFCONFOX to roll out the Phantom Cam to shoot @EdsonBarbozaJR kicking random objects into atoms?
Tommy Toe Hold @TommyToeHold
Edson Barboza needs S.H.I.E.L.D. following him around at all times to make sure he doesn’t destroy a city. Dude is a killer.
Mike Bohn @MikeBohnMMA
Edson Barboza becomes the first fighter in @UFC history to earn four knockout victories stemming from some form of kick. #UFC

I don’t know who wins between Miller and Cerone, but I’m predicting the judges will not be needed.
