Twitter is becoming more popular than ever. Now celebrities are using it to connect to their fans...without having to be too close to those obsessive fans.

They have tens of thousands of followers who hang on to their every Tweet. Thing is, sometimes what the fighters are saying aren't what they seem.

After deep investigation, I've broken the code. Not to leave you hanging, here's what MMA fighters are really saying in their Twitter Talk.

Randy Couture: Don't worry fans, I don't really want a rematch with that beast Brock Lesnar. It's all an act. And ya'll thought I sucked in The Scorpion King. Thanks, Coach!

"Tickets for UFC 113 will go on sale Saturday, February 20 at 10am ET and will be priced at $600, $400, $250, $150, $100 and $50."

Patrick Cote: I remember when selling out UFC events, didn't literally mean selling tickets to UFC events. Dana, I'm healed. Can I please return to fighting?

These interpolations are from my views alone; they aren't they actual comments from the previously listed fighters. I'm sure not everyone caught on.
