UFC 190 is done and dusted and while it wasn’t exactly an awesome PPV I wouldn’t call it a disappointment either. Fans wanting to see Ronda Rousey do something special got their wish, and she even showed some new tricks with her improved power punching mechanics. Bethe didn’t have a prayer, but not many picked her to get knocked dead inside a minute. Add to it that Shogun and Lil’ Nog put on a solid back and forth three round fight and the final part of the UFC’s 7 fight marathon PPV delivered. But man oh man, the rest of it was a bit of a drag.

At least that’s what the UFC’s own fighters seemed to be saying. Many of whom seemed half asleep by the time the main event started. Check out all the best, worst, and most public of their social media outbursts:

Guido Cannetti vs. Hugo Viana

Clint Hester vs. Vitor Miranda

Iuri Alcantara vs. Leandro Issa

Warlley Alves vs. Nordine Taleb

Rafael Cavalcante vs. Patrick Cummins

Neil Magny vs. Demian Maia

Jessica Aguilar vs. Claudia Gadelha

Soa Palelei vs. Antonio Silva

Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira vs. Stefan Struve

Dileno Lopes vs. Reginaldo Vieira
