What a time we are in. If you look at the hours you have been on your phone in a day, you will likely be shocked. You may be on Instagram, Facebook or Twitter. Most of the MMA community is on Twitter and we have some doozies that you should follow.
We have compiled a small list of our favorite MMA Twitter accounts. These accounts could be fighters, media members or just some random MMA personality.
Don’t worry, none of us Sucka’s made the list — but some former writers did.
Here is our list of top MMA Twitter accounts to follow, in no particular order.
Jack Slack
If you don’t follow Jack Slack, then you may not want to know about MMA on a deeper level. This guy is a wealth of knowledge. His 20.4k followers are treated to some great fight breakdowns and more.
I made a thing to occupy you in these boring, boring times.

Mike Skytte
Japanese MMA has definitely still not hit the mainstream in North America, but Mike Skytte keeps his followers as informed as possible on everything Asian MMA. Whether it’s breaking news from Rizin or GIFs of old fights from PRIDE, Skytte will not displease.
When RIZIN said “WHAT A DRAMATIC MMA 2020” we should have listened instead of mocking. This is our fault. https://t.co/xSyqdhBjsX

Kyle Johnson
This young buck is fairly new to the Twitterverse. But the boy wonder from New York will fill your feed with high-quality fight clips, statistics and as he calls it — fight geekery.
I just got the OK from some important, generous people to cover #UFC248. It’ll be the last UFC event (along with many other orgs) I GIF for the foreseeable future. A new chapter is upon me and it’s exciting. Thank y’all for helping me level up. Let’s end Phase One with a bang. ? pic.twitter.com/yyx5eNAtuS

Ryan Wagner
This writer for The Fight Site, who used to write for MMASucka.com gives some of the most in-depth fighter breakdowns on the internet. While on Twitter you will find him trolling fans and pundits alike. He is a must follow. I’ll add he is in love with Jose Aldo.
I’ve never seen a fighter greater than Jose Aldo. In this article, I take you through his storied career, tracing his legendary highs and lows, and explaining why he was such a special fighter.https://t.co/rljeptvQmp

Michael Bisping
The first fighter hits the list. The former UFC middleweight champion turned broadcaster, Michael Bisping is a colorful character. Not just on the mic and in the cage, but on Twitter as well. He seems to always have something to say and he’s very interactive with his fans.
Watching forensic files 2. Gonna absolutely fucking flip out. Different narrator? What is this shit? I need that creepy old fucker explaining my triple homicides. How’s your Easter everyone?

Fernanda Prates
The lone female on the list. Fernanda Prates is a breath of fresh air on my Twitter feed. She is comedic, to say the least. She is a writer for the MMA section of The Athletic and boy does she do some damn good work. Trust me, she’s worth a follow.
I promise I will not let my newly-acquired blue checkmark go up to my head. Now please make sure that my dressing room has those black roses that Kat Von D grows and red M&Ms only. pic.twitter.com/5Fr0W95Hjp

Caposa
The man whose Twitter handle is @Grabaka_Hitman was mentioned by several Sucka writers as one of their go-to accounts to follow. He doesn’t write for a major outlet he has his own WordPress site. If you are a fan of hard-hitting action, which you should be since you love MMA, then Caposa will fill your feed with plenty of that. He will bring some nostalgia back to your Twitter feed as well as coverage of promotions you’ve probably never heard of.

Israel Adesanya
This will be the last fighter on our list. The UFC middleweight champion, Israel Adesanya is just plain old funny. He pokes fun at other fighters from time to time, specifically, Jon Jones and he just seems to have a good time on Twitter. Give him a follow. Well, I’m sure you already have since he has over 400k followers to date.
@JonnyBones being @JonnyBones

James Lynch
One of the hardest working men in the media game, James Lynch is always active on Twitter. You will find him posting his fantastic interviews with the sports’ best or interacting with the fans of the sport. If you have a question about the media side of the game, he will answer.

MyMMANews
Yes, this is a competing website, but they are good people. And Eric Kowal, the man behind the MyMMANews Twitter account not only posts links to the articles on his website, but he also posts some of the most hilarious memes you will see. He is highly interactive and that’s what you want from accounts that you follow. So go check out MyMMANews on Twitter.
