JUST THE FROZEN TIP

PLEASE AND THANK YOU: THE SAGE NORTHCUTT STORY

 

[thenameDS]

Yea Paige is looking really pale and dark panda eyes. Also looked a little nervous, imo.

 

[ramoisdead]

Time for the UFC catfight.

PVZ got this.

 

[Levito]

Going with Waterson.


Here's your chance to make some money, brentech.

 

[akileese]

It's still too early to write Sage off. The kid just turned 20.

His ground game and TDD are indeed awful, but it's all about how serious he wants to take this shit. His athleticism could take him a long way if he wants to, but the rumor is he doesn't train or work hard at all.

If I was him I would take a full year off, go to a serious ass gym, and do nothing but train.

Yep. Dude needs to move to a real gym and get a real team. There is definitely a talented fighter there but he's so one dimensional right now that the book is out on him. I still think Gall did well to stop him when he did. The cut above his right eye looked pretty vicious and had the fight continued, he would have been in real trouble.

 

[brentech]

I think pvz wins via overpowering in the clinch

 

[Oscar]

Rose Namajunas was a bigger test IMO, we'll see how PVZ does against a traditional kickboxer.

Brawler vs kickboxer.

 

[Fox318]

Crowd sounds dead or is it me?

 

[Fox318]

Did somebody just open a cold one on the broadcast?

 

[Oscar]

Did somebody just open a cold one on the broadcast?

I'd bet the farm it was Goldy opening a Red Bull, he apparently loves that shit.

 

[Mega]

Crowd sounds dead or is it me?

Tempered enthusiasm or booing all night.

 

[Fox318]

What a difference in footwork between the two.

Also like how Waterson is following up those teeps with punches

 

[brentech]

Arm is deep

 

[ramoisdead]

PVZ gonna get choked out.

Karate Hotty wins.

 

[Mega]

Dana on suicide watch.

 

[Tater Tot]

hahaha dana white suicide watch

 

[thenameDS]

Welp.. that was quick and shit

 

[Fox318]

fucking hell that looks tight

 

[Levito]

I think pvz wins via overpowering in the clinch

Hey homie


What's up

 

[Chesskid1]

sage and page wtf

end of the world as we know it

 

[Obliterator]

Karate Hottie is just way more skilled

 

[NomarTyme]

Nice!

 

[Guru-Guru]

That throw was a beauty.

 

[Fox318]

beautiful work switching the body triangle there from side to side.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

I'd bet the farm it was Goldy opening a Red Bull, he apparently loves that shit.

is "Red Bull" a street name for cocaine?

 

[Oscar]

I acknowledge that it is dumb as fuck to not tap, but the dudebro in me is a sucker for that warrior spirit.

 

[ramoisdead]

lololololololololol and now Metro PCS commerical with VanZant.

 

[zewone]

Everybody getting exposed.

 

[MrToughPants]

Hype train derailed tonight.

 

[MG310]

lololololololololol and now Metro PCS commerical with VanZant.

I don't think she should get that free pizza out of this.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Paige, much like Sage, is a young fighter probably being pushed too fast/soon because of their looks and marketability. Waterson just looked like a much more skilled and better fighter there.

 

[Jmanunknown]

Dominick Cruz called it he is probably the smartest fighter/analyst in mma Paige was literally outmatched in every area.

 

[Mega]

I acknowledge that it is dumb as fuck to not tap, but the dudebro in me is a sucker for that warrior spirit.

That's gonna be the UFC spin going forward to keep up her hype. "She's so tough for not tapping."

 

[Levito]

PVZ is ridiculously tough but she's always going to be a top 15 fighter and not a top 5.


Those folks calling for JJ last fall were so fucking stupid. All you'd get back is bones.

 

[brentech]

Thought Paige would be tougher and win, but was hoping Waterson would win via some karate shit.

Been a long while since we've seen her, and her skill out weighed Paige's strength. Great throw.
Paige fucked up trying to be super fast with a throw and losing all grip.

 

[Dr.Acula]

Goldie in rare form tonight!

Frankie Gall!
Michelle Waterman!

 

[killamajig]

Hype train derailed tonight.

 

[Fox318]

Dominick Cruz called he it is probably the smartest fighter/analyst in mma Paige was literally outmatched in every area.

Yup.

He's a Rhodes scholar compared to everybody else.

 

[zewone]

Goldie in rare form tonight!

Frankie Gall!
Michelle Waterman!

He's horrible. Should have been Anik tonight.

 

[Rumblebones]

Saw Waterson getting the W from a mile away.

 

[Obliterator]

Dominick Cruz called he it is probably the smartest fighter/analyst in mma Paige was literally outmatched in every area.

Yep Cruz is easily the best brain in MMA

Saw Waterson getting the W from a mile away.

Agreed

 

[akileese]

Hype train derailed tonight.

I thought it was derailed the last time they put those two on a card together?

All jokes aside, I think Paige is tough enough, but not talented enough. Sage is talented enough, but can't take a punch without going into a shell and folds under pressure. If you could fuse Paige's tenacity into Sage's fighting you might have a top 10 fighter.

 

[Levito]

Saw Waterson getting the W from a mile away.

Seeing how PVZ couldn't manage anything but hang on against Rose, saw this coming.

That toss was a thing of beauty.

 

[Fox318]

Man you can tell Cruz is biting his lip when talking about Faber.

 

[Puck Beaverton]

Yay the person I knew won!

 

[zewone]

These Ronda centric commericals are pretty annoying. Trying to pretend she didn't get exposed and has a lot to prove.

 

[Levito]

That was a pretty excellent night of fights, imo. If these Fight Night cards were stacked more evenly like this I'd always set aside time to watch them.

 

[Guru-Guru]

Man you can tell Cruz is biting his lip when talking about Faber.

I found it hilarious when a bunch of the analysts/fighters were talking about their favorite Faber moment and Cruz picked a random time when Faber brought an actual circus to the gym (Cruz wasn't even there)...He couldn't even do a bullshit answer about how he loved sharing the octagon with Faber 3 times, instead picking a circus.

 

[dream]

That was a pretty excellent night of fights, imo. If these Fight Night cards were stacked more evenly like this I'd always set aside time to watch them.

I agree. Cards where almost every fight has a storyline are the best.

 

[Obliterator]

That was a pretty excellent night of fights, imo. If these Fight Night cards were stacked more evenly like this I'd always set aside time to watch them.

I'm such a sucker I watch every card no matter what, even the garbage.

I really shouldn't but I'm an addict for this stuff. I think I've only missed one card since UFC 100
