Official "The Ultimate Fighter: Team U.S. vs. Team U.K" Discussion

[xtremebadass]

Well, TUF: US vs. UK premiered tonight. For those who watched it, what did you think?

I was surprised at the great fighters UK had. Most of the guys who lost were equally as good of fighters as the losers which doesn't really happen on the first "fight your way onto the show" episodes. Plus, from the preview of next week, it looks like all the american stereotypes will become reality. US looks like they will eat shit this season.

Yeah seeing the preview for next week with the guy fainting because he's so dehydrated from trying to cut weight. Doesn't look good for the US. And might I just say holy fucking shit Andre Winner knocked Gary Kelly into the middle of next month with that knee. I know it probably won't happen but I would love to see Jeff Lawson take on James Wilks at some point.

I don't know how UFC is getting away with this. Comparing the international athlete to the american athlete is terrible. America is going to get blown out of the water. I can't wait to see how bad the american fighters are tonight. I will be comparing them to last week's fighters as a preview of the actual show.

This could be the best season yet, I don't think the US is going to get crushed, but I still don't think they're going to win. The UK guys look like fucking machines lol.

I wonder if we'll see any pranks like last season?

 

[xtremebadass]

Well just from last week's and the preview of this week's, this season doesn't look to be like there's much in the house. Last week's "writing on clothes" was pretty entertaining, but nothing compared to previous seasons. Plus, the fighters in the house established rules promising no underhanded tactics, which is a ratings getter, and next week's episode has two fights which says the house is pretty lame. I expected mad international brawls.

Unlike Big Brother and Survivor (both are total crap!) I guess the Ultimate Fighter shows are not almost scripted with producers coaching the guys on what they should say & do to boost ratings, next season Kimbo and Big Country will boost ratings and even stir shit and without any coaching.

 

[xtremebadass]

Yea Kimbo is going to fire this next season up like crazy.


This season was alright I guess. I still never really got into it. I just like Lester, that guy is awesome. If he can come back and manage to get into the final that would be TUF history right there. A replacement makes it to the final. Not too many memorable moments happened this season, it was more fighting and training than anything in the house.

im going to predict a win from lester over demarques. it sucks that we have already lost one weight class but i think it all comes down to hernderson and bisbing. great season.

 

[xtremebadass]

Yea I believe it will be UK vs. UK and US vs. US in the Finale...which destroys the meaning behind this entire season! It comes out to a draw, each country wins. WHERE's THE FUN IN THAT?

 

[Wordlife]

TBH I hope this season is good. Last few were okay, but I didn't have the drive to get into it. I'm going to watch this entire season... and by the looks of it already it is so far living up to my expectations. Hopefully Kimbo does something for himself and actually does well on TUF

 

[xtremebadass]

Yea dude, I think the news of Kimbo being on TUF really took a massive dump on the excitement of this season. Why get into this season when you know Kimbo will be on the next season?

 

[Wordlife]

idk cause you know me, how I absolutely used to HATE TUF when we'd talk bout it in school! Now I wanna get into it to get excited for next seasons

 

[Millzy Pt. 2]

Anybody hyped for Sanchez vs Guida and Stevenson vs Diaz fights at the TUF 9 finale?

 

[xtremebadass]

Here is the two final matches for The Ultimate Fighter Finale this Saturday...

Demarques Johnson (US) vs. Jason Wilkes (UK)

Ross Pearson (UK) vs. Andre Winner (UK)


totally sucks the US lost 3 to 1 in the final. We can still tie it up if Demarques wins on Saturday.

The card for the Finale is as Team U.K. might say Fuckin' Mint!
