Despite a string of poor performances and a 4 fight win streak, Kaufman put it together for her fight against the heavily upgraded Paige. Paige just did not have the stand-up to standup with Kaufman. Yet, stand-up she did. Then lay down. Then fall asleep. Night night Paige. (Really, though, Paige is probably on the right track...or something. Hard to tell in this one, but given the power-upgrade nature of Cannon, I think she’s in safe hands for the foreseeable future. Yay new point rules!)

Wait, maybe I'd hit that as a result of her being crazy...either way, hit that I would.
