Se Twitter-reaktionerna efter den spännande titelmatchen mellan Alexander ”The Mauler” Gustafsson och mästaren Daniel Cormier.
Tidigt under morgonen var det dags för Alexander Gustafsson (16-4) att i huvudmatchen på UFC 192 utmana Daniel Cormier (17-1) om titeln. Hans andra försök på titeln slutade efter en blodig femrondare i jämn domslutsförlust, liksom när han mötte den tidigare mästaren Jon Jones (21-1) för drygt två år sedan. Denna gång dömde till och med en poängdomare honom som segrare.
Han pressade Cormier som aldrig förr, och bjöd återigen på en minnesvärd titelmatch som är med i mixen av de bästa matcherna i UFC:s historia. En sådan match genererar givetvis en hel del reaktioner på sociala medier, och nedan kan ni se utvalda tweets i samband med matchen.

— UFC FIGHT PASS (@UFCFightPass) October 4, 2015
When Gustafsson stays mobile, he gives Cormier problems. It's when he stands still in close that he plays Cormier's game to his detriment.

People say light heavyweight isn't what it used to be and they're right, but the DC-Gus-Jones trio – even w/ one being the best – is superb.

Cormier/Gustafsson combined for 16 more significant strikes than Jones/Gustafsson (244).

The 260 sig. strikes landed by Cormier/Gus are also the 2nd-most ever landed in a championship fight. 1st = Lawler/Hendricks' 308 at UFC 171
