Jan 24, 2016 Sage is now fighting Bryan Barberena at WW, Andrew Holbrook pulled out of the fight a few days ago. Barberena was previously booked to fight Jonavin Webb on February 21st in Pittsburgh.

Jan 30, 2016 Taima IP banned me for making fun of their broken stream @redsoxx The only fight I really care about is Barnett. I hope he grinds the life out of Rothwell. Wouldn't mind seeing Sage lose either.
Jan 30, 2016 I mean he's only 19 but... But really, what the f--- Sage? Good thing I forgot to make a DraftKings team
Jan 30, 2016 I have never seen anyone, neither in MMA or grappling, tap to an arm triangle like that in half guard.
Jan 30, 2016 I had a feeling Sage was gonna lose tonight (for some reason I thought it was gonna be by KO but meh whatever) but how it actually ended might just be worse.
Jan 30, 2016 Barnett is actually boxing. Using his jab effectively. Rothwell's face is already a bloody mess. I'm impressed, but of course the crowd just wants them to wing bombs until somebody drops. EDIT: d---, Rothwell pulled it out. He's a sneaky f---. He's a well spoken guy too. I could see him getting the belt.
Jan 30, 2016 Thoughts on tonight: Sage, wow... seriously, pathetic sub. No heart, and poor decision making. Also, no lock down from half guard? Didn't answer the phone, f--- let the guy grab your head like that smh. He has time to get better, but lack of heart is a serious thing that will hold him back. Poor Barnett, but I had a feeling Big Ben was gonna get the win... just not like that. Rumble, probably the most powerful puncher in mma. Bader wtf was that? shooting from that far out with no set up smh. pathetic, i was hoping for a better fight. Oh well, JBJ just needs to take out DC and we finally get to see Rumble vs Bones! Kinda scared for JBJ's chin in that fight. But I hope Jones wins and goes to HW and takes out who ever is champ there.
Jan 30, 2016 Somewhat off topic maybe, but I really miss seeing Jon compete. According to Sholler, DC vs Jones 2 will be announced in the next few days
Jan 31, 2016 I don't think I've ever felt as bad for someone as I did the split second Bader let go of that kimura before Rumble started landing. It's pretty horrifying the damage that dude is capable of doing... I mean what, three or four shots (even semi-blocked by hands?) and he's just completely limp out cold. scary s--- Also WAR Rothwell, that s--- will go down as one of the most underrated finishes ever
