How in the world will Forrest keep it standing? He will need to for sure.

I can't see it happening even though it would be a huge ppv. I think GSP/Silva is much more likely which I've wanted to see for years.

Shane Carwin's steroid using ass will be randomly tested before his fiht with big country

Yeah they said the fight with GSP would happen first as long as He beats Condit

Good. I've been waiting for it to happen for a long time.

I think Phil's mma wrestling is overrated due to his inability to set it up with strikes. He has struggled to take a lot of people down. Forrest has an underrated ground game, should be a good fight I think.

Forrest has looked pretty uninterested as of late

sportchampps;1299476 wrote:Forrest has looked pretty uninterested as of late

Yeah, semi retired. Phil will be the fav but it wouldn't surprise me to see Forrest pull of a W if he comes in motivated, we know he works his ass off in the gym and will be in shape. Depends on where his head is at.

Anyone seen the New Years card? UFC 155 is absolutely loaded!

I just looked at it. That's an easy buy for me.

Rashad vs Little Nog slated for 157.

For now, there will be at least 4 fight changes by then lol

lol, the tides have to turn on the injuries eventually don't they?

Yeah. I think I've watched two episodes so far this year. Doesn't help that by running it so regularly, you're bound to have uninteresting fights between the coaches occasionally. I mean, Carwin vs. Big Country, IMO, wouldn't even be a good headliner for a free card (what's Nelson done, other than be a personality, to deserve that kind of respect?).

And you get the same personalities every year in the house, so one season kinda blends into the next unless you have someone who's out-of-control nuts like Junie Browning. From what I saw this year, you have a couple serious (ie: not good TV) "I WILL win and get into the UFC to feed my family" guys, a couple jokesters, a complete bitch (red mohawk dude this year) and a few guys who are pretty bland except for that one "lose their shit" moment that gets played up to be worse than it is because it was the only interesting thing that happened in the house for a certain time period.

the show needs to die off. Season one at least had them compete is challenges. Screw team format, it should be survivor style. Have a challenge, people who come in last fight.

Yeah, it says a lot when the only episodes that are remotely entertaining are the ones with two fights, because at least you don't get to watch the 500th version of "View the Dumbasses in Home Life". Since you just basically get this over and over and over again.

1. I have a girlfriend and small child that may be being born while I'm here and I'm miserable but doing it for them! When I lose (and I will), There. Will. Be. Tears. (even though, by virtue of making the house, as long as I didn't piss Dana off, I'll still get a multi-fight deal).

2. I am a social retard who flips out at everything. I also lose in either the first or second round. Depending on if my first round opponent has ability.

3. I'm Kimbo Slice. People have heard of me. Even though I suck, every single show-ending promo for next week will hint that I may be allowed to resume the competition, because no one's watching to see those other guys. That barely discolored black eye one of my housemates has? For all you know, it's a flesh-eating bacteria and I'll be replacing him! TUNE IN FUCKERS!!!!

4. I'm the serious guy that's in it to win it. No pranks or anything resembling personality from this intense, joyless robot! Be surprised if I'm still in it by the semifinals. Sure, I'm the best guy in the house, but you've only seen me in the ring and in the background because I never do anything camera-worthy, so you've probably forgotten I exist.

I believe the red mowhawk dude is from Ohio. Some of the guys are annoying. Lose a fight, complain about it, stay in the house and fuck with people's food/beds. Dumb.

Yeah the dude from Ohio is the worst person on this season. First his fight to get in the house was shitty. Then he gets to pick who he wants to fight and still loses. Now he just fucks with people while whining about being poor back home.

WTF is wrong with the judges on TUF this season. Last nights fight the judging was one of the worst I have ever seen. I really think they may have mixed the fighters names up.

Yeah there had to be a mistake, those were easy rounds to score imo.

Koscheck wants to fight Nick Diaz in February at UFC 157 on Super Bowl weekend, what do you guys think of that fight?

Well, to make this week's edition of the show more thrilling, the preview has red-mohawk throwing more in-house tantrums. That's kind of where the show falters -- in their attempt to balance "interesting" on-TV highlights while still appearing like legit competition, guys like this are encouraged to a degree. For pure legit-ness, it'd go like this: you were eliminated, you're acting like an ass in-house, have a fun trip home kid.

It would be good on 2 levels

1. Be a good fight
2. The Smack talk leading up to the fight and during the would be Epic
