Pros and Cons: UFC 222 immediate Twitter analysis

UFC 222 is in the books, and two featherweights got brutal finishes to top the card. With the injuries and last minute changes, I honestly wouldn’t blame you if you took a pass on purchasing this latest pay-per-view offering. In any case, here’s a quick twitter thread with a brief recap and analysis that’s fitting for people’s social media era attention spans:

CYBORG TKOs YANA

PROS: Cyborg's a beast. Glad she’s headlining more shows & getting her deserved exposure

CONS: Her dominance is also causing problems with expectations & matchmaking. It will be hard to keep topping these brutal finishes, & for fans to see others as big threats— Bloody Elbow (@BloodyElbow) March 4, 2018

ORTEGA KOs EDGAR

PROS: I thought Ortega had a chance to win, but outstriking AND brutally finishing him on the feet?
