Well, that happened.

Clay Guida bounced around for 25 minutes, Gray Maynard slowly slogged from a one to a ten on the Frustration Scale, and the entire state of New Jersey switched allegiances mid-fight at the inexplicable headlining attraction of UFC on FX 4.

Maynard eventually won, taking a split decision seemingly on principle alone, much to the relief of a majority of the MMA world. But that didn't stop the outpouring of criticism that emerged from nearly everyone with a voice. From Daniel Cormier to Dana White, Ben Askren to Joe Rogan, it seemed like the entire community had something to say about what escalated into a remarkably bizarre Friday night.

Wtf is going on here — Daniel Cormier (@dc_mma) June 23, 2012

This is crazy. Is he winning the rounds? I don't know what's happening here seriously frustrating — Daniel Cormier (@dc_mma) June 23, 2012

"@TDiesel45: @dc_mma same bullshit as Diaz vs Condit" even worse man. Are they training that there man — Daniel Cormier (@dc_mma) June 23, 2012

Congrats @GrayMaynard my brother :-) — Jose 'Scarface' Aldo (@josealdojunior) June 23, 2012

I thought it was impossible for this fight to suck. I WAS WRONG!!!!!! — Dana White (@danawhite) June 23, 2012

First time I have ever seen Guida get boo'd out of the building. I am booing too!! — Dana White (@danawhite) June 23, 2012

Ref took a point from Guida for running! This is like the twilight zone!!!! Never thought I would see that — Dana White (@danawhite) June 23, 2012

Maynard won that easy!!!! Wasn't that close. HORRIBLE fight! — Dana White (@danawhite) June 23, 2012

Gray Maynard is my new hero, just like a video game. #fb — Roy Nelson (@roynelsonmma) June 23, 2012

Gray Maynard is the long lost Diaz brother. HE CAME TO FIGHT! — Roy Nelson (@roynelsonmma) June 23, 2012

Man Guida is hard to watch, kudos to @GrayMaynard putting up with that! Good job buddy, way to bring back the W — Luke Rockhold (@rockholdMMA) June 23, 2012

I think the UFC should shave Clay Guida's head as punishment for his performance tonight! RT if you agree! — Siyar Bahadurzada (@SiyarTheGreat) June 23, 2012

If there were yellow cards in UFC like they used to have in PRIDE, Clay Guida would be paying to fight by now. — Vinny Magalhaes (@VinnyMMA) June 23, 2012

Ugh... seriously? Someone nail his feet to the canvas and make him fight. — Dan Hardy (@danhardymma) June 23, 2012

That was the right decision. Greg Jackson's gameplans are going to kill this sport. — Dan Hardy (@danhardymma) June 23, 2012

TRASH decision!!!!My teammate @clayguida WON!!! He beat Gray Maynard!!!!! What an amazing execution of a great @JacksonsMMA game plan! — Tim Kennedy (@TimKennedyMMA) June 23, 2012

Wow what a back fire of a game plain — Melvin Guillard (@Young__Assassin) June 23, 2012

I don't know if Guida is winning the fight but he damn sure is winning the dance battle!#yougotserved — The Diamond (@DustinPoirier) June 23, 2012

I take great comfort knowing that tomorrow night's fight with Wanderlei Silva vs Rich Franklin will be at least 100 times more exciting. — Joe Rogan (@joerogan) June 23, 2012

Why are people surprised at guida fighting this way? He's always like this — Daniel Downes (@dannyboydownes) June 23, 2012

Guida started using footwork very well in his fight w/ Maynard because he was striking & moving. By the end it was only moving, no striking. — Kenny Florian (@kennyflorian) June 23, 2012

Guida couldn't go toe to toe w/ Gray. That would've been stupid & he prob would've got ko'ed. His gameplan was still excellent. — Kenny Florian (@kennyflorian) June 23, 2012

They should take points for holding guys down and running! Let's make fights exciting not boring @ufc — Leonard Garcia (@badboygarcia) June 23, 2012

Maynard looks frustrated, but I think anyone would be with Guida's unorthodox-ness — Patrick Healy (@BamBamHealy) June 23, 2012

Judges finally got one right! — Ben Askren (@Benaskren) June 23, 2012

Jackson camp ruining mma for me. Stand and fight. — David Rickels (@TheCaveman316) June 23, 2012
