A few updates on what's been going on in the MMA Twitterverse
CHAEL SONNEN'S THOUGHTS ON UFC 141: LESNAR VS. OVEREEM
"WOW Brock just retired. He was a great champion and a true asset to the sport of MMA. Thank you @DCBrockLesnar" -Shane Carwin
"Brock was robbed!!!" -Chael Sonnen
"Brock was getting ready to leap all over that big bum. He was loading himself on the floor, like a coiled spring, and they stopped it..." -Chael Sonnen
"I've grown skeptical of a sport that tolerates the type of injustice that Brock faced tonight. So, I am retiring." -Chael Sonnen
"Not immediately" -Chael Sonnen, these two tweets about "retirement" have since been deleted. Probably cause a lot of people took it seriously.
LYOTO MACHIDA CALLS OUT CHAEL SONNEN
"Chael Sonnen, acabei de sair da cirurgia, mas posso lhe dar seu presente dentro do octogono com um so braco e so vc aceitar a luta." -Lyoto Machida, here's the translated version of the tweet - "Chael Sonnen, I just had surgery but I can still give you your present in the octagon with just one arm. All you have to do is accept"
"I don't have time for "pee pee" mouth. All the time I can spare him is enough to cold cock him and walk away." -Chael Sonnen
There's a ton of tweets after the jump, but first, don't forget to follow me on twitter: @antontabuena

MICHAEL SCHIAVELLO SAYS FEDOR IS "A DIVA"
"Lots of Fedor love after Ishii win. Back to back for Fedor but I’d like to see a true test of his current mettle against a better name" -Michael Schiavello
"BTW Fedor is SUCH a DIVA! Other fighters & us sat on bus for about 90 min after show because Fedor apparently needs a bus all to himself! Even Bibi Fernandes and his team were booted off the second bus because "that is Fedor’s bus," mind you these are like 70 seat tour buses! ...Seriously, it was just plain RUDE. Fighters want to get to their hotel we ALL HAD TO WAIT & Bibi had to clear off the Fedor bus. If greats like Hoost, JLB, Sefo, Schilt, Hunt, Hug, Aerts etc can all bus share, Fedor can too." -Michael Schiavello
"Fancy booting Bibi Fernandes & his team off ONE BUS and onto the other more crowded one. Dude just won the B/W GP! Not to mention sitting there for 90 mins on a bus at 1230am waiting, waiting, waiting… I get the "special treatment" thing but hey, hire a small private van or a limousine, I’ve seen that done before. Don’t keep others waiting." -Michael Schiavello
"Andy Hug was a far bigger star in Japan than Fedor and I never once knew Andy to order his own bus & clear out others. Fact. No hate, I love Fedor’s style of fighting, huge fan, just saying the diva bus demand was harsh on other fighters waiting to go." -Michael Schiavello
"I don’t think it’s fedor I think it’s his people. He is not like that at all." -Tim Sylvia
"Thanks Tim, I think so too. Trouble is that management reflects on their clients, hence this reflects on Fedor." -Michael Schiavello
"My apologies to Fedor if that's the case, all I know we were TOLD "that is fedor's bus only"" -Michael Schiavello
