All of the MMA deities looked down upon the Octagon last night and smiled on Doo Ho Choi and Cub Swanson. The soul of the first caveman Gracie, Miyamoto Musashi, Trog the Berserker God and a hundred million more. There was one awarded the victory in the UFC, but both men won on the infinite spiritual battlefields of war. Swanson embodied the cliche of a “scrappy veteran” and turned the Korean Superboy into a Superman. Tons of fellow fighters joined MMA Twitter to praise the warriors in their mortal combat.
F-yeah @CubSwanson! You bad MFer!
It was like a fight out of a Rocky movie!@ufc #UFC #MMA
