Surprised at this comment.

We all know you are always improving in this game.

He's the youngest fighter on the roster, none of the greats were at their best and well rounded at 20.

He obviously has lots of holes but 2-3 years in a top camp and 8-10 fights and he will be a hell of a lot better.

I think he will be at least a top 5 guy in the future.

That Asian kid is 19 and would take his head of his shoulders and hes 10lb lighter.

If you're thinking about Superboy, he's 25.
Most guys don't even get to the UFC until they're in their mid 20s. Although Sage doesn't look up to it, I'd like to see them give him 6-12 months between fights, let him improve in the gym.

people seem to have the idea its sages fault other fighters are on sh!t money, chaps got huge potential and he draws numbers so hes paid accordingly, tj is to blame for tjs pay. lot of the hate sage gets really seems to stem from jealousy or something!

^ This.
Fans are always complaining about fighters being underpaid. Here we have a guy who managed to pen a decent deal and he gets slated for it.

But I've no issue criticising his ability. I haven't rated him from the start. The reaction when he steamrolled Trevino was a bit OTT.

Haha, he does look like a child but I heard one of the commentators say he was was 20 something so googled it.
Does anyone know if he's done his military service in Korea yet? I don't want him taken away for two years like the Korean Zombie.

Probably be near the top of the division in 2 or 3 years and be hauled back to Korea Ha Korean Zombie is back by the end of this year I think,

Thought he was gonna get taken down and dominated the weekend hope they take it handy with him let him murder siver or something next,him Holloway and Yair Rodriguez could dominate that division in future.

... just think its silly to write off a 20 year old who until now has only ever trained with is dad in the garden basically.

He did his karat-a-saults BS with his dad but he's also been training at a Gracie Barra for a number of years. He has a purple belt, and has competed in a fiar few grappling comps.
I was really surprised when I heard that, as he really doesn't look remotely close to purple belt level. I'd guess he was given an easy promotion in BJJ as he was dominating guys at blue with his physical advantage

Useful.Idiot

Jones via KO/TKO

I think Sage getting trashed by a proper opponent would do good for him in the long run. Should encourage him to take an extended break from fighting and work on his game in a top gym.

100% agree,I dont know weather to trust Usada the way they pulled Jones is admirable and they say there no names on the tests but this sounds fishy,


The sport is absolutely rancid with freak shows like this embarassing it.

I was one of those "muppets" you're referring to. To be frank, at the time the evidence was there to imply he was in the clear. Obviously that is now not the case. Have no problem admitting when I was wrong.

I respect you for being big enough to admit you were wrong,


The signing of him a month out stinks,4 weeks of testing and still couldnt get off the stuff,40 year old men cant look like that naturally he was in better shape than he was 5 year ago,


Wonder what the substance is,his cardio looked great so might be related.

The White Feather

Yeah I always thought he was massive and didn't think he would be stupid enough to be on anything now but I was wrong too.

So I beg forgiveness!!

Always a Brock fan and feel let down now :(:(

It was painfully obvious he's been juicing all his adult life if not longer. People just chose not to see what was right in front of their faces. Humans just aren't meant to look like that!!
