While the main event matchup between Tyron Woodley and Stephen ‘Wonderboy’ Thompson was somewhat uneventful and anti-climatic, Saturday night’s UFC 209 card still delivered an exciting night of fights to fans at the T-Mobile arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Woodley managed to eek out a contentious decision victory over Thompson in a rematch of their UFC 205 welterweight title fight.

In the co-main event of the evening, David Teymur and Lando Vannata put on an exciting scrap that eventually ended in a convincing unanimous decision victory for Teymur, and earned both fighters a cool $50,000 bonus, after being awarded fight of the night honours.

Check out the tweets below to see how the pros reacted to Woodley’s controversial title defence, David Teymur’s upset victory over Vannata, Alistair Overeem’s brutal knockout win over Mark Hunt and more.
