Take a look at how mixed martial artists celebrated Father’s Day with this collection of powerful photos and heartfelt messages.
It’s the third Sunday of June, which means it’s Father’s Day for a large portion of the world (not including Australia because they just have to do things differently, don’t they). We really hope you took the time to get in touch with your father (or father figure) and throw some love their way for all the things seen and unseen that they did to help raise you.
You don’t have to be a big softy to express your appreciation … even tough UFC and MMA fighters are big on Father’s Day, sharing great photos and messages about their dads or them being dads. Honestly, some of the best moments as an MMA fan have come watching fighters and their kids together. As Donald Cerrone has shown us over the past year, becoming a father is a truly transformative thing.
Our hats are off to all you Maniacs out there raising your kids right. We hope you’re enjoying the day, and if you need some extra joy you can scroll down and soak up more positive Father’s Day vibes.
