QUICK TWITT | UFC Fighters React To Gustafsson’s K.O. Over Manuwa
Last weekend in London, Alexander Gustafsson proved to the world that he’s the rightful title challenger in the UFC’s light-heavyweight division.
It took the Swede just minutes into the second round for him to find his range and dismantle a battered and previously unbeaten, Jimi Manuwa.
After the fight, the MMA world took to twitter with the following:
Gustaffson is BEAST!!!!!!!!!!!

Good luck @AlexTheMauler in ur title fight. Dang! Haha my time will come. DC

Hey guys just a quick thought……I would have done the same thing to Jimi Manuwa. No disrespect to Jimi just the absolute truth.
— Daniel Cormier (@dc_mma) March 9, 2014
Gus is rightfully next, but lets keep things in perspective. He's #1 ranked guy for a reason. This shouldn't have suprised anyone.

Why not give the winner of Alexander and DC the winner of myself and Glover??

I see DC congratulating Alexander and making comments about waiting his turn now.. I wonder if they're afraid to fight each other?

People who don't like to think are quick to call me afraid. Think about it, I'm asking for the meanest of the two

"I want my title shot. Whenever you want!"
