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 Sunday’s UFC Fight Night 81 event at Boston’s TD Garden, 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. * * * * The defeated 185 vs 145 I think we would have to fight at a catch weight lol plus I don't wona fight a fellow Bosnia https://t.co/raZ00FcqRX — Elvis Mutapčić (@ElvisMutapcic) January 18, 2016 No excuse rob was the better guy 2night was lookin for 1 big punch and was really nervous congrats @RobSFont — Joey Gomez (@gomezthefirst35) January 18, 2016 Chillin with the original Killa B Saunders!
