Some took the sides of the UFC fighter, whereas some supported the statement of the AEW champion. Now, it seems that the audience is more engaged in their clash. They are thrilled to see them fight against each other.
What a Joke.

Some passionate fans even took out time to present their analysis of the match on the internet for everyone to see.
Yeah that was pretty bad. And I was not surprised by the outcome at all. Once Paddy was able to reverse the position on the 3rd I knew that was enough to justify giving it to him.

It was closer than everyone is complaining about Paddy clearly won Round 2. And 1 was closer than everyone made it seem. Round 3 Gordon seemed Gassed and like all he could do was hold Paddy against the fence.

A fan mentioned the obsession of the roster with his fighter Paddy as there is a lot of hype around him presently.
UFC won't allow Paddy to loose a fight on decision.. Just too much hype around him presently. Paddy definitely lost the first round atleast..

There are also some fans who supported MJF in his statement where he compares Paddy with McGregor.
They desperate to create the new McGregor
— Marcos (@obeyymarcos7) December 11, 2022
Paddy is their so called “New Mcgregor” so they’ll do whatever they have to to get him over
— CarpeEth (@CarpenterAgent) December 11, 2022
Right? This is bang spot on! That was clearly predetermined. There is absolutely no way not even one judge gave Gordon 2 rounds.

Quite a few WWE fans are expecting something to happen on Monday Night RAW’s 30th anniversary.
It's awesome seeing UFC and wrestling work together. First Daniel Cormier at WWE Extreme Rules and now Paddy and AEW Champion, MJF. Wonder if anything happens at WWE Monday Night RAW 30th anniversary show in Philadelphia next month.

Some fans even called out MJF on his trash-talk about the pro wrestlers.
Funniest part was his attempt to talk his way out of it and botching it badly. Rather than insulting pro wrestlers he should be taking lessons from them

Lmao! Cody, I love ya dude but this proves my point that I’ve been saying that MJF is one of the best heel wrestlers of all time. Even people outside the pro wresting world in his replies 😂
