Take up shelter in the base of my spine
Sweet like a chica cherry cola

He's lost all his smoker fights, he's dumb enough to train with smoker fights, and he did MMA training for years before "going pro".

Actually, a wrestling announcer saying he had a mixed martial arts background because he liked watching it and did karate as a kid is not the same thing as training for MMA.

I think it would be a double KO draw as the kick each others shins at the same time.

No.

The greatest moment in my life was realizing that I didn't need a belt to be happy.
Sage Northcutt would outclass CM Punk so much it would be astounding. Like if you didn't know anything else about the sport you would think Sage Northcutt is the greatest fighter on Earth after he demolished Punk, but instead he's only marginally better than Cody Fisther.

Sage Northcutt is more handsome, more athletic, a better fighter, and a nicer person than Phil "Chick Magnet Punk" Brooks.

If(ha!) Punk beats Gall and another dude, I'd love to see him fight Sage. But that's an if you can see from orbit.

I don't think it's hyperbolic to say Sage Northcutt is twice as fast as CM Punk. It would be like Anderson Silva vs Forrest Griffin played out again except when Forrest said it was like trying to beat up his father it would this time be the extremely Christian teenage son beating the poo poo out of his slow confused dad

Sage Northcutt actually won amateur fights before his UFC debut, won in the UFC and has some semblance of existing skill and has shown improvement throughout his fights even if he isn't amazing. He'd gently caress CM Punk up.

Even if those W's were favourable matchups, they're still wins against people who were trying to hurt him. Quantifably more than Punk has.

To be fair, I think people tend to agree Sage is reasonably good at the things in MMA he actually has been training for his whole life. It's the other aspects people mock.

Daniel Bryan chased down a guy who robbed his house and held him down for 5 minutes until the cops arrived.

As much as I enjoy making GBS threads on Punk because I don't watch pro wrestling or whatever, if he gets blown out of the water by a 2-0 guy after 2 years personal training with world class* trainers, that's insanely pathetic for both him as an individual and his camp. It will be competitive.

Good point. I think that's the better way to look at it despite the betting lines. Funnily enough, his odds got worse after that first episode aired. It'll be interesting to see that go back down as the documentary further unfolds.

finally watched all of the doc, I wish I could find uncut footage of the smoker. He didn't look terrible in the edit. Yeah he got stomped but that's what I expect a 6-2 pro to do to a guy who at that time was about 2 months into training. Still kept that chin way too high tho.

revised prediction: who the gently caress knows.

Depends how hard he gets hit in the head. I'm surprised not a whole lot of MMA fighters have gone Benoit or died young compared to wrestlers, but then again they have different regimes and lifestyles.

They mostly don't for the same reason boxers mostly don't; when you get a concussion in MMA you're suspended for a minimum of 30 and usually 60 days, whereas in wrestling until quite recently you were expected to rub some dirt on it and get back out there tomorrow.
