I'm left scratching my head, because based on what you just wrote, I'm pretty sure you made the argument for 114.Heretic wrote:Yeah, that's how I looked at the cards. With 112, you get great names in all likelihood dismantling guys not in their league. In 114, you get non-belt-holders in more competitive fights. If you want to see the best show why they are the best, I'd go with 112...if you want a bunch of "flip a coin" matches, 114 probably is the better card.Fab1b wrote: Personally I think 112 is a better card but has more definate one sided results as I don't believe either Edgar or Maia can win against Penn or Silva. 114 though not as big of names has better matchups IMO.

As a MMA fan i will watch anytime Anderson Silva fights but, the fight I have wanted to see the most so far this year is Rampage vs Evans.
Any Predictions on who wins this years TUF?

I'm buying 112 solely because I like to watch Spider and Penn.
I'm equally pumped for Rashad/Rampage, Shogun/Machida 2, and Lesnar/Carwin.
I can't remember any of the TUF contestants names lol so I can't make a prediction.

Wow that Yager is a mouthy piece of shit lol. Luckily for him he seems to be able to back some of it up.

Yes he is!! I just hope the show isn't dominated by freaking drama though. I just want good fights with just a bit of nonsense mixed in. I still love Tito as a coach though, IMO, the way he handles his fighters is brillant.

Yager has some impressive kicks (which made me like him at first), but he sure runs his mouth and acts like a little kid (which now has me hoping he gets his face beat in).bigdaddy2003 wrote: Wow that Yager is a mouthy piece of shit lol. Luckily for him he seems to be able to back some of it up.

Agreed. I never liked Tito before, but after catching two episodes and watching how he handles his fighters I am really impressed with his mentality and quickly becoming a fan.Fab1b wrote: I still love Tito as a coach though, IMO, the way he handles his fighters is brillant.

That's crazy, I watched last nights episode this morning and thought the same thing when it was over. I can't stand Tito the fighter/showman who talks a ton of shit to hype up the fight...but Tito the coach seems great. He handles them great, tries to make everything a learning experience. I loved when he calmly made the kid practice getting out of the triangle right after the loss, wouldn't let him sit there and sulk in front of everyone. I was pleasantly surprised by Tito.Fab1b wrote: Yes he is!! I just hope the show isn't dominated by freaking drama though. I just want good fights with just a bit of nonsense mixed in.

I have to admit I was baffled by Chuck's picks but after what he told Dana about looking up who each fighter had fought he may have made the right picks.

Madame Tussauds chooses UFC legend Chuck Liddell as MMA's first wax figurine:

Liddell's sculpture, which costs approximately $300,000 to produce, will then be moved to the museum and put in a UFC Octagon and adorned with a UFC championship belt.

I hated Tito until his first stint on TUF as a coach, then I became a fan.
He has just solidified my belief that he is really a good guy after last nights episode.

Tito seems like one of the best coaches they have ever had on the show. I also like Chucks stratedy though of knowing there is limited time and just working to improve what each fighter already does. If I was someone looking to get started on a career path in the UFC i would want Tito as my coach. Did anyone else think it was funny how they totally ingored Jake Shields as a coach.

I think Shields leaves Strikeforce after his fight with Hendo, he may just well end up in the UFC after that fight.
