Killashaw CHEAP SHOTS K1 Champ! (Haymaker after bell)

Uuuummm.. Paige beat up a guy?? Teen as in 13 years old or 19 years old?? There’s a difference..
13-14. During sparring she lost her temper and once she got him down was giving him knees to the head while he was prone. At which point Faber said "WE WANT YOU. PERFECT. JUST THE ATTITUDE OF A WINNER WE NEED"
 
lol wtf.

to be fair but he isn't praising her at all, he said that they broke it up. At no point did he praise her in the article you linked.
Sorry saying that incident is what convinced him she was the real deal and they wanted her on their team is praise as far as I am concerned.
 
Already been a pretty big thread about it.

TSnake seems to have a history of doing dirty shit to sparring partners. He lacks control of his temper, for sure.

Pretty much this. He might be a decent guy outside of the gym, but it seems like he trains like a dickhead. Honestly, plenty of fighters probably do.

But sucker punching a sparring partner like that in training? That's really fucking shitty. Gotta think that's beyond what the majority of even the hottest headed guys would typically do.

Wow... That is so sad. Is it even worse than Sylvia having sex with the belt on?
 
Holy shit that was really late. How come nobody said anything?
 
Wow Dillashaw is lucky that Cody left didn't land. The right hand solid but the left might have put him out.

The "Cody KO'd TJ in sparring" video was released, although it was very short and just showed TJ getting dropped.

LOL the TJ hitting mitts on the plane and luggage claim. So bad.
 
Just google "PaIGE vAN zANT BEAT SHIT OUT OF kID"

Hang on

Oh look, its Faber praising her for dropping knees on a 13 year old kid's head to prove she really wanted it. He goes on to say it was what cemented his opinion that she really wanted this etc.

There are several articles on it, but all of them are Faber praising her for getting a 13 year old down and repeatedly dropping knees to his head lol.

But Remember! It can't be ok if it's TJ. Then its disrespectful and dangerous!
Clearly it was a gym fight. Im also sure everyone expected the boy to win against a girl that looks like Paige. I'm fine with it, should she have fought faber instead? Lol
 
Sorry saying that incident is what convinced him she was the real deal and they wanted her on their team is praise as far as I am concerned.
You’re reaching. His exact words
“I’m like, alright, this girl’s here to play.”
In no way is that praise. You’ve obviously never been in a gym
 
The problem is BOTH of these guys are maximum douchebags. It's just the kind of insecure fighters that TAM attracts and cultivates. A shame because they are both the most talented athletes the division has ever seen, but I can't root for either of them. Come save us Cruz, we're barely hanging on...

You know that Cruz comes from Lloyd Irvin, right?

That 13 year old kid was on the fight team and Faber called him a "stud kickboxer". We had a 14 year old in our gym that can starch grown adult males, he's Brazilian too. The 14 year olds who are on the BJJ competition team can beat pretty much all the White belt adults in BJJ unless they're enormous and/or strong. These kids train 2-3 hours a day, 6-7 days a week and competes like once every 2 months.

But we're not that big a deal compared to Faber's gym And we have a pretty big gym, 10k sq/ft. and lots of students. Still, we aren't close to TAM with their cranking out not just UFC fighters, but Champions. That 13 year old sounded like a prodigy and PVZ is a tiny ass broad. I don't even see this as being anything to be alarmed about and more like, good for Paige.

In hard sparring that's pretty much a fucking war, you really need to treat it like it's a fight and protect yourself at all times. If you're one, or "the" Big Dog during fighter's training sessions...then nobody would dare say shit ; otherwise they'd be next. This is just how Champions are made.
 
Meh probably wasn't even worth making a thread about it. K1 dude probably doesn't care at all. They both fight for a living.

And again, I have no problem with it. hard sparring and tempers are hard sparring and tempers.

My Problem is they get on Dillashaw for the exact same shit when its commonly known EVERYONE at that gym goes hard like that. All the shit they accuse Dillashaw of are things done regularly there.
 
zooming in on his rib cage area is crazy .. The muscle there is beyond any other fighter I've seen .. How do you build muscle there like that ?

Marlon Moraes is insanely in shape too .. that will be a great fight when it happens
he's clinching hard because the whole animosity was a ruse and he knows they're about to make sweet, sweet love backstage.
 
anyone whose ever sparred has thrown a late punch- we dont know what back story there may be...


THIS PHOTO HOWEVER IS INEXCUSABLY EMBARRASSING.
The thing is though, this isn't the first time Dillashaw has done something like this (and TS' example isn't even the worst one).

Chris Holdsworth said:
"I was always up for the fight, but there was multiple occasions where T.J. got a little bit too aggressive, he went overboard in training. He’s kneeing you while we’re boxing. He’s throwing elbows while we’re doing jiu-jitsu. And I remember that instance that’s out in the public — yeah, it’s definitely true.

I shot in on T.J. and I was on all fours, he was sprawled out and he kneed me on top of the head. And that was before The Ultimate Fighter. I remember I was kinda jarred up and everyone was watching, and I took like 30 seconds off and I kept going, I kept going through the rounds and I finished practice. But after that practice, I was concussed, and that was my first concussion. And it just kinda kept happening from there.

Many have pointed out that Faber was a terrible gym owner for allowing Dillashaw's behavior at that time, but that doesn't absolve Dillashaw of wrongdoing. There's a precedent and history to Dillashaw training dirty, and his most recent incident with Takeru can't just be written off as an isolated incident.
