Word outta Montreal is the company is still looking to sign GSP vs. Lawler for the co. headliner.

Sage training with the goat. How lucky is this kid who has access to Rory MacDonald, GSP, and Firas to learn from, all the time?

Tate/Holm II would be a better main event if you're a fight fan, McGregor is fighting out of his weight.

Holm should be before Rousey in a rematch and it's bullshit if Rousey gets the shot before her.

I understand what you're talking about but do try looking at it from a promotional standpoint. I hate Dana as much as everyone else, but he knows his business very well.

McG vs. Diaz 1 did 1.5 mil. That's pretty fucking impressive considering there was really no one else on the card.

A heavy fight needs to be the main event, much like UFC 100.

The card doesn't need gsp or anyone else. It will break 2 mil ppv buys as is.

That Northcott guy looks retarded, his head looks too big for his body.

[QUOTE=Illusion;5157433]Future champ right here.QUOTE]

I like the boy good spirit, polite...Tremendous standing skills but he really needs to improve on the ground, especially on his back to be a champ.

His last defeat by arm triangle was quick. No chance if he fight someone who can avoid his strikes and put him down. His poor bjj skills are useless for now.

Hipe is a bitch done to make people loose money...

guims79 · #**3049** ● 04-09-2016, 10:00 PM

and he's probably full of roids...

guims79 and downunder, no need to explain. I've been in this game for a long time and I know damn well Diaz fanboys have a predisposition to hate everything Tristar, so cut the shit!

Sage is a super skilled, athletically gifted 19-year-old Karate protege, not a Bjj phenom. He's also 7-10 years removed from his fighting prime. That being said, he now has access to some of the greatest fighters and trainers in the world. Think about that for a second. Now let the true hate commence.
