UFC 196 was one of the best pay-per-views in the sport's history.
Miesha Tate upset Holly Holm to win the women's bantamweight title, which would have been stunning by itself, but the final fight provided an immense shock.
Nate Diaz, a heavy underdog, shocked the world by defeating the over-confident Conor McGregor in a lightweight bout.
As you might expect, a legion of athletes and celebrities shared their reaction to the surprising results via Twitter.
That includes a long list of NFL players. Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers was among them, and he won't need any convincing when the next UFC pay-per-view is on sale.
A pair of U.S. women's national soccer team players also chimed in.
Detroit Pistons center Andre Drummong was among the NBA players who enjoyed the UFC 196 card.
A few giants from the music industry weighed in as well.
