The Kansas City Chiefs have won the Super Bowl again, beating the San Francisco 49ers 25-22 in overtime, with the MMA community reacting to the victory.
The MMA world’s buzzing, folks. The Kansas City Chiefs have done it again, they’re Super Bowl champions.
Sunday night was a spectacle. The Chiefs took down the San Francisco 49ers in a 25-22 overtime thriller. Patrick Mahomes, the man of the hour, threw for 333 yards, including the game-winning touchdown.
The MMA community was glued to their screens. Some were cheering on the Chiefs, others, not so much.
Nate Diaz, a Stockton native, was pretty vocal about his disappointment. His fellow Californians fell just short. But hey, that’s the game. Most fighters were bummed about the UFC 300 main event fight announcement that never happened.
So, no main event for UFC 300 yet. And Kansas City? They’ve made history as the first repeat champions in the NFL in almost two decades.
Check out some of the best reactions from the MMA community below.
Brian BOOM Kelleher tweeted, “Did anyone catch the ufc 300 Main event announcement?” Raquel Pennington shared, “This Super Bowl game has me stressed!!! What a great game!”
Derek Brunson warned, “THIS WAS THE CHIEFS WORST TEAM. NFL TEAMS ARE IN TROUBLE NEXT YEAR! THEY WILL SURE UP THEIR HOLES, VETS WILL TAKE LESS TO PLAY WITH MAHOMES!”
Will Brooks had some words for Kyle Shanahan, “Kyle Shanahan is show muscles. Regular season offensive genius. Post season SB dud.”
Derek Brunson again, this time about Travis Kelce, “Travis Kelce owes Andy Reid a huge apology. My favorite football coach of all time. We go back to Andy Reid and Donovan McNabb in Philly!”
Billy Quarantillo had a unique take, “If y’all thought the 49ers were gonna beat Taylor swift and Pfizer yall must be new here.”
