Every episode I'm reminded how bad some of the dudes on this season of TUF are. Plus Brock's team are a bunch of babies *sniffle* "don't call me chicken shit" *sniffle*.

I haven't been this excited about a PPV in a long time.

GSP, Aldo, Machida, Couture's last fight, Ben Henderson...what an amazing card.

Aldo is about to be introduced to the mainstream fans. The hard core fans have known he's one of the top 3 fighters in the world for a long time, the mainstream are about to see a show.

I am ready for the ppv Sat! I think GSP will lose but I hope he doesn't because then we may never see the Silva super fight.

I think him fighting Silva would be really boring.

Also, what's everyone doing for the fight?

I'll be ordering the PPV at my house.

I like GSP, Aldo, and Couture in the three big fights. Anyone else think Randy Couture will stay around if the UFC pushes him for another title fight? I know Jon Jones is hurt, and the Rashad Evans vs. Phil Davis winner could be next in line (Evans is if he wins), but could the UFC keep Couture lure him back into the Octagon?

You can tell this is a dull season of TUF when the only noteworthy things are:

1. Junior getting pissed at one assistant coach for trying to take over.
2. Guys on Lesnar's team thinking one guy is a mole. Drama ensues.
3. Waiting to see if someone on Lesnar's team completely flips out after being told the truth that he's a whiny bitch.

Everything else is pretty dullsville. Especially the fights.

+1, i thought brock would be awesome to watch but the gsp and koscheck season was much better. I want them to bring back rampage for a season, his team got wrecked but he's funny as hell

I will be ordering the ppv at my place and having some friends over.

This season of tuf is boring. I have to say the wrestler who won the first fight in boring style has been the best so far because i havent seen anyone who can stop him from doing the same thing. Also isnt it interesting that there more drama between JR and his assistant coach then brock and JR. I could see the coaches challenge being the most civil challenge ever. Brocks team is jealous that they had a guy actually win a fight and have now made their winner the outcast. I just miss the days when TUF produced 4-5 fun guys vs the last couple where weve been lucky to get 2 guys who are decent.

Brock's team is a bunch of whiny douchebags.

And there isn't the drama between Brock and Dos Santos because Dos Santos doesn't seem to be the type of guy that has to view the other dude as the "bad guy" to be able to fight him. Seems chill as fuck.

I've yet to see a fight where guys were actually throwing multiple punch combinations consistantly. Dudes are throwing jabs without ever following up with anything and if they do it's just jab, right straight, back away. No one has even tried to tee off yet.
