PAIGE VANZANT:
SLOW AND STEADY IS THE RIGHT APPROACH
Article By: Jay Anderson
There’s something to be said for de-
veloping a fighter slowly, and allow-
ing them time to progress as martial
artists rather than trying to capital-
ize on a young star’s burgeoning
popularity. Say what you will about
Conor McGregor and just how he
earned a title shot against the num-
ber one pound for pound fighter in
the UFC at the moment, Jose Aldo,
but the man has had five fights in
the octagon, and won all five.
Look no further than that, and the
fact that overall, McGregor is 17-2,
and you’ll understand why the UFC
are going the slow and steady ap-
proach with Paige VanZant.
