Felice "Lil Bulldog" Herrig vs "12Guage" Paige VanZant @ UFC Fight Night Newark, 4/18

Rooting For Herrig... Its a shame that UFC's uniform deal is on the horizon... It will start by this fight right? Man, going to miss Herrig's :) interesting get-ups. O well, just another reason to dislike the ufc.

Don't think uniforms kick in till June/July/August
 
Why would they do this to Paige? She created so much buzz around her this past year; the UFC could have a good marketable fighter at strawweight, and now they feed her straight to Felice who is far more seasoned. Why not build Paige slower?

Granted, if Paige wins this fight, it's a huge win for her and proves she's the real deal. I just don't think she'll be ready for this one so soon.

Weigh-in should be epic.

But the fight? Hmmm...PVZ is still really hyped from her dominant win/UFC debut. But, I think (even) Felice might be too much for her. PVZ was impressive bullying around a skinny Curran and PVZ clinched and Wall-n-stalled enough to more or less neutralize her opponent. But recently, Felice looks so friggin` buff and strong. I just don`t think PVZ will be able to control Herrig in the clinch and I think she`ll be even less effective trying to pin Felice against the cage. I think if Felice just stays aggressive she can win this on the feet or on the ground. But neither fighter has much of a chance to put the other away. Both ladies will bring it though. Felice by UD.

I can't believe people actually think Felice is hot. Paige is kinda cute though.
 
Nice. Your are the epitome of an MMA hipster if I've ever seen one. You should start a blog or something

So thinking WMMA strawweight > WMMA bantamweight makes one a hipster now?

What am I missing here?
 
I want PVZ to win even though I'm a little salty towards her at the moment. I tweeted her an offer to buy a pair of "used" or at least tried on panties for $50 and she blocked me.
 
First fight where I want to see zero stand up in the fight, just all ground game and control.

Will watch....
 
If Page is improving linearly she takes it, and makes it look easy.
