SAITAMA, Japan – Since the early days when the sport was anything but a mainstream endeavor, the MMA industry has thrived and survived through various websites, forums and, perhaps most importantly, social-media platforms.

Fighters interact with fans, each other and many more through the likes of Twitter, Facebook and Instagram, which helps outsiders get a deeper look into the minds of the athletes.

Following Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 75 event in Saitama, Japan, several of the winning and losing fighters, along with their coaches, training partners or family members, took to social media to react to the event or share a message with supporters.

Check out some of those reactions.

Primeiramente muito obrigado Deus, sem você nada disso seria possível! Minha nova história meu novo caminho começou a 10 meses atrás onde eu decidi que daria a volta por cima e ficaria perto de todos aqueles que eu amo e me querem bem, passei por grandes mudanças, foi difícil uma verdadeira guerra, mas tá aí o resultado, hoje me sinto um vencedor da vida que é muito melhor do que ser apenas um vencedor dentro do octógono. #BRANDAO#TEAMBRANDAO with @repostapp @ufc @ufcbrasiloficial @reebok ?? Obrigado a todos que me ajudaram nesse processo. @ivanjatoba @flavioalvaromma @ale_notari @clinicabodyhealth @bt_bodytech @011mma @barbosajj45 @pistarinosergio @feodontologia @andrefranco.coach @thnnutrition @arturvirgilioneto @mosantaella @elvysdamasceno @jr_cardoso
