Given the historical significance of last night’s announcement from President Barack Obama that 9/11 mastermind, Osama Bin Laden, was found and killed; I thought it would be insincere to focus on UFC 129 this morning.
I will get back to some follow up thoughts on Saturday’s event later today, but for now, I thought I would post some tweets from last night on fighter’s reactions to the President’s announcement.
@BrianStann (Brian Stann) – Bin Laden is dead, I hope this continues the movement towards more freedoms for the people in the middle east and an end to ops for our forces
@danhardymma (Dan Hardy) – One less murdering lunatic in the world. Always good news.
@aaronsimpson (Aaron Simpson) – Go F yourself Osama.
@TimKennedyMMA (Tim Kennedy) – I find myself kind of sad that Osama Bin Ladin is dead. I have fantasized about killing him almost as much as zombies… I will have to find a replacement.
@NateRockQuarry (Nathan Quarry) – This just in: Steven Seagal kicks Osama Bin Laden with front kick
Let me start by once again stating that I am a Georges St. Pierre fan (pictured, AP Photo).
