For some reason I could easily see this decision going the wrong way ? #UFCAustin

Wow. Dodgy decision #ufcaustin

So many jealous haters of Sage out there. Seems like a nice kid, I thought he lost but it was close I guess.
— Nick Newell (@NotoriousNewell) February 19, 2018
WOW! Straight ROBBERY OMG! ??♂️ #UFCAustin

Sage not eating carbs for 21 years paid off. But seriously, you can’t be upset with not winning when you throw 29 strikes to your opponents 111 strikes in 15 min without ever securing advantageous positioning either. #UFCAustin

Sage looked sharp, I had him taking the W. #UFCAustin
