Superboy is next up. Just scary good. Being Asian is cool too. Not enough representers from that region.

That crazy little half smile he has all the time. Also like he's giddy. And the gorgeous technique. Reminds me of Rory early in the career where this new young kid comes in scary good. No hype required. He next up.

edit: he's so loose in there. No hesitation. Perfect Trigger every time.

He just needs to keep working on his takedown defense. Between Superboy and the Crazy Bee squad (Kid Dynamite's team that has Horiguchi and that cat who said he wanted to be in the UFC to bag American women), the Asian representation has some strong up and comers.

:damn: I saw that pay but :wow: I didn't notice he took in less than Sage what's cray is that TJ knew he couldn't lose that belt or his pay would take a huge hit especially since he has like 10 fights

Cormier took a paycut to save the 200 card he just confirmed it on the mma hour :deadmanny:
:what: Ariel is saying the same thing, when it's painfully obvious this was the most stacked card ever no one fight was indispensable but probably brock's. He took that fight because of the time and money he spent in training camp for Jones, a pay cut was better than nothing at all. I can't believe some of the ppl that follow this sport man, so dumb :snoop:
