They said what?! Pros react to Neil Magny's come-from-behind TKO of Hector Lombard

Ever the comeback fighter, Neil Magny once again survived multiple knockdowns to find himself a win. This time around, he survived a savage barrage of punches by Hector Lombard before finishing him with ground-and-pound in the third round of a fight that was controversially not stopped at the end of the second round. Read the reactions to the fight (and Steve Perceval's refereeing decisions) from UFC fighters on Twitter.

I'm thinking Magny in this one, who you got? #UFCBrisbane

I love when a coach asks his fighter: "how do you feel"?

After he eats 80 punches from the scariest 5 foot man on the planet
