Twitter Reacted To Gegard Mousasi’s Stoppage Win Over Rory MacDonald And Rampage Jackson’s TKO Win Over Wanderlei Silva
Bellator 206 delivered some thrilling action on Saturday night, in the SAP Center in San Jose, California. In the main headliner, a reigning middleweight champion Gegard Mousasi successfully defended his title after defeating Rory MacDonald via second-round TKO.
Meanwhile, in the co-feature, bitter rivals Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson and Wanderlei Silva squared off for the fourth time. Silva already won twice over Jackson, both these fights ended in some brutal knees in the clinch, and they took place under the now-defunct PRIDE FC banner. Rampage won the third outing by one-punch first-round knockout at UFC 92. Tonight, Quinton “Rampage” Jackson tied that score by earning a second-round TKO victory after a wild back and forth affair.
Check out what Twitter has to say about their wins:

Rory’s nose is busted good. That’s been a plaguing injury throughout his career.
