UFC 165 Jones vs Gustafsson results: Twitter reactions from PPV main card

This evening (Sept. 21, 2013), Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) returns to Air Canada Centre in Toronto, Canada, with UFC 165 LIVE on pay-per-view (PPV).

The mixed martial arts (MMA) night is headlined by a Light Heavyweight title fight between division champion Jon Jones and Alexander Gustafsson. With a win, Jones would cement himself as the greatest 205-pound fighter in the history of the promotion.

In the co-main event, Renan Barao will put the interim Bantamweight title on the line against former World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC) 135-pound champion, Eddie Wineland. Barao has been on an absolute tear and hopes to put a stamp on the title challenger.

The PPV main card kicks off at 10p.m. ET.

Meantime, check out our live Twitter.com reactions from around the social scene, which will be updated throughout the evening with the best the Internets has to offer. For the UFC 165 "Prelims" Twitter.com reactions click here.

Pat Healy vs Khabib Nurmagomedov

Advice from Healy's corner: "C'mon Pat Healy!" "Up up up up!" Solid advice.

Nurmy with the Hughes-esque slam. How do you say 'country breakfast' in Russian?

— Ben Fowlkes (@benfowlkesMMA) September 22, 2013

Khabib slams Healy as if he were Hughes carrying Trigg WOW

— Kevin Iole (@KevinI) September 22, 2013

Nice @KevinI

— FRANK TRIGG (@FRANKTRIGG) September 22, 2013

Healy lost because they were in Canada. There was no USA chant to power him up.

Khabib is a stud ! #165 http://t.co/51DvAT1lfe

Constantinos Philippou vs Francis Carmont

"Francis Carmont, he was certainly limitless tonight" wow its like Goldberg doesn't even know what words mean

— Chris Nelson (@3amMMA) September 22, 2013

Sorry I just woke up! Thank god that's over. We decided a shot of @ChrisWeidmanUFC would be more exciting than the end of the fight.

Matt Mitrione vs Brendan Schaub

Schaub has a really horrible, horrible defensive striking style. All chin up, hands down when he punches. Just a disaster w/ his chin

— Brent Brookhouse (@brentbrookhouse) September 22, 2013

I believe Schaub's knockdown to knocked down ratio is 4:3. That's not good.

— Jeremy Botter (@jeremybotter) September 22, 2013

Rogan: "Schaub will have a speed advantage." Later: "I don't think Schaub has a speed advantage."

— Mike Fagan (@ItsMikeFagan) September 22, 2013

That fight suddenly got WAY better. One of the nicer chokes I've seen in a little bit, especially in the higher weight classes. Nice.

— Lactor: Acid Monster (@AcidicLactor) September 22, 2013

Mitrione a very good athlete. Great college football player. But funny to play it up when he didn't make the NFL. Makes the sport look small

— Jonathan Snowden (@mmaencyclopedia) September 22, 2013

Man, that's Schaub giving the ol' salute to all the critics after the Metamoris debacle. You know he's loving that.

— Ariel Helwani (@arielhelwani) September 22, 2013

A guy that laid on top of Lavar Johnson for 15 minutes tapped out Matt Mitrione in under a round. M ... M ... A.

Renan Barao vs Eddie Wineland

Bad dancer, all world fighter #UFC #UFC165

— Tommy Messano (@ULTMMA) September 22, 2013

Let's talk a little bit about that dance. Great KO, but that dance....

— Dave Sholler (@Sholler_UFC) September 22, 2013

Wow!! That was badass. @RenanBaraoUFC @ufc

— Urijah Faber (@UrijahFaber) September 22, 2013

Yeah so the fight ended with a spinning back kick to the face. Can we please just crown Barao the official bantamweight champ now?

— CagePotato.com (@cagepotatomma) September 22, 2013

For a scary dude, Renan Barao has perhaps the UFC's most ridiculous dance.

— Chad Dundas (@chaddundas) September 22, 2013

Spinning back kick to the face. Woo. KO for Renan Barao. Excellent technique to win in style and retain the interim UFC bantamweight title.

— Josh Gross (@JoshGrossESPN) September 22, 2013

Jon Jones vs Alexander Gustafsson

I'm sorry but that's bullshit.

— michael (@bisping) September 22, 2013

Well, 49-46 seems like a complete freaking farce. Wow. Unanimous.

— Matt Erickson (@MMAjunkieMatt) September 22, 2013

That was fight of the year, no matter how it was scored.

— Bad Boy (@BadBoy) September 22, 2013

WooooooW!!! Now that was a fight. Had me on the edge of my seat

— Cowboy Cerrone (@Cowboycerrone) September 22, 2013

Anyone else think Glover and Cormier aren't worthy challengers?

— RJ Clifford (@RJcliffordMMA) September 22, 2013

Rare to see a rematch when the champ retains, but I would pay top dollar to see that again. Imagine it in Sweden?

— Ariel Helwani (@arielhelwani) September 22, 2013

Nice to know UFC belt doubles as a fanny pack to carry your Gatorade
