Thanksgiving may be a bit different in the world of mixed martial arts, with the pesky dilemmas of weight-cutting and fight preparation getting in the way of the collective stuffing of our faces that is customary around the holiday season. But that doesn’t mean there’s not plenty to celebrate.
Between sharing pictures of loved ones, posting their favorite holiday memes, or getting in those empty gym training sessions, there was no shortage of festive activity from your favorite MMA pros.
