The struggle is best paired with Tom Waits. Enjoy.

Our locker room with 8 fighters, was just kicked out & sent to a broom closet because Ken Shamrock didn't like his room, WOW! #Bellator149

I am truly sorry to my fans I worked hard for this fight & was not given a fair opportunity to recover from the low blow

— KEN SHAMROCK (@ShamrockKen) February 20, 2016

I took a long, hot shower but still feel dirty from #Bellator149.

Wow dude just broke other dudes nose right at the final bell #WSOF28

— Brad Tavares (@BradTavares) February 21, 2016

I feel bad for dude that got his nose broke. That was literally thee last second and wouldn't have made a difference in the outcome of fight

— Brad Tavares (@BradTavares) February 21, 2016

Excuse my language. I'm trying to clean it up. But it's hard not to be completely disappointed in the direction MMA has gone this weekend.

Damm judges tonight Wsof sucked @timurvaliev_df got robbed

Pennsylvania Athletic Commission has beem absolutely terrible to these fighters today. Will hurt PA's chances for future cards

— Brian Stann (@BrianStann) February 20, 2016

Made fighters do their physicals in the middle of their cut time, Dr's were then late which gave them less time to cut.

— Brian Stann (@BrianStann) February 20, 2016

Last minute switches left & right to include specific tests for female fighters after they weighed in and are ready to go eat

— Brian Stann (@BrianStann) February 20, 2016

Also forgot, their Doctor overslept and then decided not to show. Making it way worse for the athletes. Luckily athletes were pros

My 8 yr old kid student:"Hey did you hear that Ronda lost so she's going to commit suicide?" Omgggg how to explain that one... #no

Never had someone I actually knew haunt my dreams...good job.

This is either the best or worst trolling ever. I just can't decide. pic.twitter.com/3TlSVLzvd2

One of the people running for president RIGHT NOW is going to be president this time next year.... Think about that for a second.... Then consider suicide.
