Performance bonuses: Erick Silva and Charles Oliveira Fight: Machida vs Mous asi Dana White (@danawhite) February 16, 2014 Correction (again): 12 fights, 10 decisions, 2 finishes. Sheesh. 1:30 am ET is apparently way too past my bedtime. I blame the dunk contest. Ariel Helwani (@arielhelwani) February 16, 2014 Someone named The Dreamcatcher shouldn't be fighting at 3:00 am local time. MiddleEasy (@MiddleEasy) February 16, 2014 @mikefridley Thought @lyotomachidafw was gonna end it there but the finish p roved too..ahem...elusive. #ufc #ufcnight Toe Holds Barred (@ToeHoldsBarred) February 16, 2014 Machida is so fast at 85 Dana White (@danawhite) February 16, 2014 Mousasi has never been KO'd for the record. That includes his kickboxing bou ts. Iain Kidd (@iainkidd) February 16, 2014 That body shot from Silva broke Takenorj Sato's rib. ?????????????????? pic.twitter.com/RX0omEX1Zj Dean Marchand (@clean_dean) February 16, 2014 @madchonan: ????????????

Mousasi fights this way because even if he loses, he can just say he wasn't even trying. Learned it on the playground. Eric Jackman (@NewYorkRic) February 16, 2014 I swear Mousasi always looks like he is sleep walking during his fights. Loo ks like his heart rate is about 14 bpm. Greg Savage (@TheSavageTruth) February 16, 2014 GIF - Lyoto Machida vs. Gegard Mousasi #UFCFightNight Hat Thief decides its

better to return the hat http://t.co/WYyw1sMDrz ZombieProphet (@ZProphet_MMA) February 16, 2014 Frankie Cars still getting his Monica Seles on when he strikes. So that's fu n. Ben Fowlkes (@benfowlkesMMA) February 16, 2014 If you've never been in a body triangle, it isn't just 'hard to breathe'. It 's actually a chore. You have to use muscles to force air in. Luke Thomas (@SBNLukeThomas) February 16, 2014 FYI, UFC broadcasters have audio files of fighters pronouncing their own nam es. The way Jon is pronouncing it is correct. Jeremy Botter (@jeremybotter) February 16, 2014 has there ever been a fighter who didn't "love being the underdog?" "honestl y it makes me sad that people don't believe in me, i cry a lot" Chris Nelson (@3amMMA) February 16, 2014 Had Sato jumped up, gotten on mic to complain, sat in the cage for 1 hour wh ile the Yakuza went crazy would have been like Saku's UFC debut! Jonathan Snowden (@mmaencyclopedia) February 16, 2014 Kenny Florian's hair is truly the MVP tonight. Takenori Sato's poodle leg gr abbing strategy against Erick Silva was not. FightOpinion (@FightOpinion) February 16, 2014 Wow. Takenori Sato has 7 draws in his career. And at least one terrible 52-s econd a--whooping. Brett Okamoto (@bokamotoESPN) February 16, 2014 How many hammer fists before u let go of the single?! OUCH Dana White (@danawhite) February 16, 2014 Per @AntEvansUFC, Sato's dad is Akio Sato, a member of the 80's WWF tag team The Orient Express. Flashback city. Jeremy Botter (@jeremybotter) February 16, 2014 I sent my 10-year-old to bed because I didn't like the idea of him seeing fi ghters brutally KO'd. What was I thinking? Jeff Wagenheim SI (@jeffwagenheim) February 16, 2014 If you break down the charges on a per hour basis, $9.99 for a Fight Pass su bscription is looking like a bargain right now. Tristen Critchfield (@TCritchfield52) February 16, 2014 so many decisions, Bruce Buffer in full Micro Machines mode, all fighters no w walking out to "Yakety Sax" Chris Nelson (@3amMMA) February 16, 2014 If someone made a flamboyantly gay cartoon named "The Adventures of Gegard M ousassy", I can't say I wouldn't be intrigued.. #DontJudge #UFC Fight Parrot (@FightParrot) February 16, 2014 What we learned: Yamasaki hates groin kicks, but he's kinda okay with eye po kes. Jeremy Botter (@jeremybotter) February 16, 2014 This is an aspect of UFC expansion I don't grasp. Why lower quality of some of product to make it a bit indistinguishable to lesser rivals?

Luke Thomas (@SBNLukeThomas) February 16, 2014 2014 to date in the UFC: 32 decisons, 6 submissions, 9 KO/TKO and 1 DQ Brent Brookhouse (@brentbrookhouse) February 16, 2014 Trinaldo got that old man strenf on his side. Stephie D (@CrooklynMMA) February 16, 2014 Maybe "Performance of the Night" got translated into Portuguese as "Decision of the Night." Dave Doyle (@davedoylemma) February 16, 2014 Mike "Body Snatcher McCallum was a great boxer. A UFC dude needs to get off of "Fight Pass" before he co-opts. That's not a jobber's moniker Jonathan Snowden (@mmaencyclopedia) February 16, 2014 "This is national minister of violence Chris Lytle and I approve of this fig ht." https://t.co/NuxRuYbE67 Jordan Breen (@jordanbreen) February 16, 2014 I'd be all on board for Fight Pass if it had social features. Like voting to cut a guy post-fight. Liver Kick (@LiverKickdotcom) February 16, 2014 By the way, this how Ildemar Alcantara's nose looks like. Beautiful. pic.twi tter.com/e1GRPngscJ Guilherme Cruz (@guicruzzz) February 16, 2014 It'd be cool if we had UFC loyalty cards and got points for every round we w atch. We'd be halfway to redeeming them for the boombox tonight. Dann Stupp (@MMAjunkieDann) February 16, 2014 shit sounded like he popped a paper bag with that kick. felipe ain't gon hav e a good week son. GFKonMMA (@GFKonMMA) February 16, 2014 Who had really loud groin kick in the Blanco DQ pool? Ben Fowlkes (@benfowlkesMMA) February 16, 2014 The fact those slams were legal didn't really matter since you know Blanco w as going to try them anyway. Dann Stupp (@MMAjunkieDann) February 16, 2014 If you know anything about Venezula, you know Maximo Blanco has more credent ials to be president than Nicols Maduro. Luke Thomas (@SBNLukeThomas) February 16, 2014 Kenny Florian's pronunciation of "Alcantara" really makes me want to play Co ntra. RJ Clifford (@RJcliffordMMA) February 16, 2014 It's tough being a ferocious puncher and not much else against a hardened Ea stern man with a name that sounds like a 60's sitcom car horn. Jordan Breen (@jordanbreen) February 16, 2014 Silva de Andrade makes the same movements I do when I get really cold. TJ De Santis (@TJDeSantis) February 16, 2014 Florian just said that Douglas Silva de Andrade does not "have much money at all." Isn't that true of most fighters on the prelims?

Tristen Critchfield (@TCritchfield52) February 16, 2014 De Andrade is sponsored by tape. pdl (@pdlmma) February 16, 2014 Douglas Da Silva sponsors have been redacted pic.twitter.com/BNNo6v8wtO Reminton Kelly (@BrandonfrmNJ) February 16, 2014 Tweet20 0 Share20 Related Articles Viewpoint: The Machida Code UFC Fight Night 36 Winner Jacare Souza Wants Title Shot After Besting Francis Carmont Lyoto Machida Injures Left Foot in UFC Fight Night 36 Win Over Gegard Mousas i Matches to Make After UFC Fight Night 36 By the Numbers: UFC Fight Night 36 Comments Comments powered by Disqus Top trending fighters Chris Weidman | Cain Velasquez | Ronda Rousey | Anderson Silva | Georges St. Pierre | Jon Jones Events/Fights UFC BELLATOR WSOF More > UFC 170 Rousey VS McMann Ronda 'Rowdy' Rousey Versus Sara McMann February, 22, 2014 UFC Fight Night 37 Kim VS Hathaway Dong Hyun 'Stun Gun' Kim Versus John 'The Hitman' Hathaway March, 01, 2014 Feb222014 Mar012014 Mar082014 Mar152014 Mar232014 UFC UFC UFC UFC UFC 170 Fight Fight 171 Fight Rousey vs. McMann Night 37 - Kim vs. Hathaway Night 38 - Gustafsson vs. Manuwa Hendricks vs. Lawler Night 39 - Shogun vs. Henderson 2
