Each week our Senior Editor Stephen Rivers is joined by “Your Majesty” Melanie Gale, in compiling a topical mixed martial arts based list. Their discussion and ranking of subjects that have no real bearing on anything may seem indulgent, but as we all know the internet loves lists, and so do they. They also love women’s MMA.

This week we are celebrating the positive side of the internet. Sunshine over shade, because good things happen on social media too. So, without even a hint of snark, here we go.

WOMEN’S MMA SWEET TWEETS

#10 – Tecia Torres and Jessica Aguilar Break Out the Smiles

Two of the greatest strawweight fighters on the planet, clearly enjoying sharpening their skills together. Aguilar is currently a free agent following her release from World Series of Fighting, and we can only hope that her next move is to the UFC. Torres meanwhile is in the final stages of preparation for her UFC 188 fight against Angela Hill on June 13.

#9 – Meatball Molly Embracing Her Inner Tazz

Molly McCann made her professional debut at Shock N Awe 20 in Portsmouth this past weekend, and congratulations are in order. Not only did “Meatball” Molly get a first round TKO win, but she paid homage to mid-90’s ECW by turning into a full on “Human Suplex Machine”. Kudos Molly, Tazz would be proud.

#8 – Heather Clark Paying Respect on Memorial Day

Strawweight Heather Jo Clark pays respect to America’s fallen warriors and her Father’s Military Service on Memorial Day. Heather is currently training, starring in a documentary about elite vegetarian athletes, and assisting Leslie Smith in punishing street harassers. Hashtag, heshouldawornacup

#7 – Bryony Tyrell Enjoying Her Post Training Greens

Amateur MMA fighter Bryony Tyrell showing that she has a great sense of humor to go with that ability to beat people up. When not bungee jumping, skydiving or base jumping, Bryony actually finds time to train and clearly earned that big bowl of leafy goodness. We are reliably informed that there is some fish hiding in there somewhere too.

#6 – Not All Ripped Ears and Choking Grabby Men

Leslie Smith taking time out from her busy training schedule to connect with an excited group of 5th grade school children. Leslie is currently undergoing physical therapy to get herself back to 100% before looking to step back into the octagon. She does however remain more than capable of taking the back of grabby men in the mean time.

Talking to a class of 5th graders today was a wonderful and humbling experience. The pote… https://t.co/qZo9PiRQqG pic.twitter.com/hyZA3hEMtW — Leslie Smith (@LeslieSmith_GF) May 28, 2015

#5 – Jade Bryce is a Big Glowing Human Submarine

While she may not be promoting Bellator Fighting Championships anymore, Jade Bryce is a permanent fixture in the hearts of many MMA fans. Always a bundle of positive energy — and pizza — Jade gets metaphorical, comparing herself to a human submarine when she swims. Think about it… there you go.

#4 – Amanda Nunes’ Super Cute Birthday Surprise

If you’re under 40 years old chances are you still like birthdays. We do. We also like cake, and balloons, and cute friends. Amanda Nunes had all of these things in one place as she was surprised by a group of friends that included Alex Chambers and Nina Ansaroff. Nunes reached the grand age of 27 on Saturday.

My friends brought me a suprise for my birthday. Thank you friend s https://t.co/o1Tg8KWyCc — Amanda Nunes (@Amanda_Leoa) May 31, 2015

#3 – Be Warned, Megan Anderson’s Coming to Get Ya

Megan Anderson was supposed to fight on May 23rd at XFC 24. Despite turning up in great shape and making weight for the fight, her opponent did not show for the weigh ins and the fight was called off. Thankfully the bitter disappointment at missing out on an opportunity to fight, was replaced by excitement as Megan signed for Invicta FC this week.

USA best be ready cause this featherweight has officially signed with @InvictaFights! I'm coming to make a statement pic.twitter.com/EoDT2YTMD7 — Megan Anderson (@MeganA_mma) May 27, 2015

#2 – Claire Tietgen Meets Ronda Rousey in Kansas City

Claire Tietgen is on a quest to stop teen bullying, and who better to help than Bantamweight Champion Ronda Rousey? Claire met up with Rousey at a signing in Kansas City, and presented her with a Royals t-shirt and a request to help fight bullying. Ronda responded with gusto. Good luck Claire, it’s a quest most worthy.

@RondaRousey @DrAnnMaria best book ever ! I'm only 12yrs old but love how she thinks about things, it's just like me! pic.twitter.com/bOZ0we8lVO — Claire Tietgen (@clairetietgen) May 29, 2015

#1 – Miesha Tate Has Some Really Talented Friends

Given that she is one of the most talented female fighters on the planet, it should come as no surprise that Miesha Tate’s friends are pretty talented too. Here she shows off her friend Hannah playing piano and singing something quite beautiful. The only disappointment is that the clip is too short. Miesha, we want the full length video.

Is there anything sexier than a girl that can play the piano, sing and look good in a #bikini while… https://t.co/9GE0fPSSHz — Miesha Tate (@MieshaTate) May 31, 2015
