The Ultimate Fighter: Team GSP vs. Team Koscheck could turn out to be very entertaining, but in general, we're not expecting any surprises. The coaches already have their roles sorted out, and won't be straying from them: Georges St. Pierre is the nice-guy champion who doesn't let his opponents get under his skin, and Josh Koscheck is the trash-talking contender who gave up on being liked a long time ago. At this point, there's no reason to think St. Pierre won't dominate Koscheck in December like he did during their first meeting in 2007. But maybe Kos can take a page out of the Chael Sonnen playbook and force you to care about the rematch through the sheer power of his assholishness.

So anyway, here's the first five minutes of next week's TUF 12 premiere, courtesy of Spike. Koscheck vows to whip GSP's fake ass. Dana White is so excited that he's sweated through his Bruce Lee t-shirt. (Too early for gray, buddy.) It'll be another "wild card" season — the setup that allowed finalist Kris McCray to fight five times in six weeks last season. Dana pumps up the cast with his usual arsenal of F-bombs. We meet the first two preliminary round fighters. And that's pretty much it. No word on if any doors are destroyed this season, or if any raw fish is beaten off into. Okay, fine, maybe there will be a few surprises...

With the exception of killer guillotine guy they;re really isn`t a standout from the cast so the primary focus will be on the coaches. GSP is pretty stupid and it`s going to belol to see him staredown Josh after Josh hands his ass to him verbally. This would be the perfect season to bring back coaches challenges. The interaction between the two are going to be hiliarious. I hope they do it right|||

Bruce lee guy (he brought a bruce lee outfit with him to TUF) has a fightclub brawl with a random guy named choclate

_[yt]fQ6P0k_XCGM[/yt]

seems like an idiot. He fought a guy who street fights and he was doing leg kicks and missing his punches. Didnèt really seem to be able to throw a strong punch. I woulndnt call the Choclates guys punchs wild at all. Pussy bruce lee was scurred after seeing the power choclate posses and wanted nothing to do with it then find a way t win with technique. Choclate was confident, slammed him around like a rag doll and ifhe knew what to do next, Bruce lee would of been fucked up. All Bruce could do is hang on and take advantage of his mma training. sorry guy but in tuf youère goin to need more then technique to win.

So what did everyone think of the fighters who got in? That Michael Johnson is a beast and is most likely the favourite. Koschecks guy who lives in New york with him was pretty impresive from all 13 seconds we seen of him. Karatekid was impressive too, but way too loose for his own good. Cody the Guillotine guy admitted he's never had a trainer lol. It's going to be a lot of work for the coaches this season.

They should of ended the episode with everyone getting picked, good to hear the wildcard system is back. Hell court mcgee won it because of that system. I can see Karatekid losing his first fight then returning. He needs to get beat up and get straightened out and the fighters would love to have a young smaller kid rather then a behemoth. same idea with the mohawked native.

was that ever a underdog victory for that native though. He just hung in there and the other guys technique is what killed him. He kept doing that judo throw and didn't d it properply. If he would of just avoided that he wouldn't of been put in the position where he could of got standing rear naked. That was a hell of a fight.

As far as coaches go, I see this being pretty dull. In the first episode Kos and Dana did most of the talking at the table. GSP sai da few small things, but for the most part he just sat there looking like an idiot. He seems to goody goody to really get into it with Koscheck, which is what I am sure Dana wants to see. I feel that GSP is much to worried about losing his clean cut "golden boy" image to get into it too much with Kos. The fighters however (who the show is about... or supposed to be about) all looked pretty good overall, I am kind of curious to see how "Bruce LeRoy" fares, he had what TUF loves; character.
