How will tonight's episode of the tuf reality show be perceived by the casual fan.


I do think Rashad "Sugar" Evans will have their sweet sweep and go 8-0 vs Team Rampage. Is this really good for the show. Try to look at it with just someone who might be interested or just introduced to the sport. If i was a casual fan and did not know that both those fighter's were supposed to meet in the tuf10 finale(they still might meet up sometime in 2010) and i saw all that trash talking i might just turn it off. Another problem is half of the hw's on the show are getting winded three to four minutes into the fight. They will look at these guys and say no way could they compete with a brock lesnar b/c that is the one hw they would know. Kimbo has already got his fight on the tuf finale show so it's obvious he won't fight again on the show. I think he might just knockout houston alexander and get some credibility.
Then in the only fight i would want chuck liddell to take would be this one at the same catchweight (215 pds) Tell me the ufc could not market that fight for huge ppv numbers. It could happen but unlikely. Peace.

Hmm

It’ll probably be perceived like the other TUF 10 episodes…the fact is that even as wack as this season has been up to this point…even though the ratings have sort of leveled off….viewers have continued to tune in more this season than in season’s past…so the bad heavyweight fights and whatnot must not have had that much of an impact on things…

i sure hope that roy nelson in his next fight just does not lay on his opponent with........

his big belly and hits the guy in the face until the ref stops it. i can see dana white’s face all twisted and angry telling him no more free whoppers for him. maybe roy nelson thinks he gets whoppers for life if he wins the tuf contract. i saw marcos rosalas as a ref in a strikeforce matchup last night. wikipedia which i know is "never " wrong said rosalas is another karate guy. god bless all these karate judges. i never knew the ufc had so many of them. now i’m going to look up our boy hamilton. peace

The commissions appoint the ref’s…not the UFC though..

don't you find it strange that the commission would have two karate judges in rua/machida

fight? i mean lyoto machida’s main thing when he won the title from evans was KARATE is back. just my opinion.
