UFC Philadelphia in Tweets: Pros react to Justin Gaethje knocking out Edson Barboza, more

Justin Gaethje did it again.

The win gave Gaethje back-to-back first-round knockouts following his similar destruction of James Vick, and thurst the former WSOF champion back into the title picture at 155 pounds.

Check out reaction to Gaethje’s handiwork below, plus the best of the rest from a roller-coaster night at UFC Philadelphia.
