It is amazing how quickly the complexion of that round changed after that knee. Jojo's knees and elbows inside are so good.

I see they got rid of bright primary colored team outfits and have instead gone with gatorate grape and gatorate wintergreen this season.

Pettis with the "women are emotional :confused:" line to excuse his bad coaching, instead of accepting his team's feedback that they are indeed being overcoached. Gilbert seems way more chill to train under.

So chill that hey, it's cool if you don't actually win, you tried hard, and that's enough of a win for him.

Pettis seems to suffer from the same problem that Jon Jones did on his season. Someone who is naturally gifted as an athlete will have a tough time coaching because it all just comes easily to them.

Also, he needs to focus on the life coaching aspect for his team. Get your suit guy to make some fly threads for the ladies, Tony!

I didn't pay attention to the entire episode but it seemed like Team Pettis was pretty happy and united even before the win.

The talent in this division seems so close that it's going to be very interesting when they start fighting more in the UFC. Jojo (as far as I can tell) is one of the top talents and the number 15 girl still looked respectable against her. It'll be nice to have a women's division without a Rousey type domination at the top.

It's how her species communicates

Thug Rose was by far my favorite going in, followed by Bec Hyattt cause she's a little out there. That accident at the beginning of this episode set a real tone between the girls and the girl they all hate. That girl tries to escape a headlock by dumping rose off the mat on to the floor. She ends up taking the worst for it, they bitches and pouts, while Rose just looks on with the "what did you think would happen, bitch?" look on her face.

Gilbert bring an ice cream pail full of orange slices for his team to enjoy after practice. Sometimes he treats them with watermelon, but it's cool to have orange slices too.

They're doing a real good job of promoting someone who is so meek and quiet.

I also really like how much most of the girls seem to like each other. It's such an interesting change of pace from what TUF normally is, I hope it stays that way. The division in general is a lot stronger than 135 in terms of both parity and promotability of fights. They're probably going to come out of this season with several good contender storylines. I know it won't do good ratings because women + tinyweight is not as interesting to idiots as immensely fat men, but there are going to be a lot of fights that will just be real good viewing as an MMA fan.

I know that they are trying to market Rose as something other than Pat Barry's pretty fiancee, but if they ever need funny videos...

This video of Rose has a lot of nice rear end.

I'd bet anything Felice Herrig was given pretty good instruction to do exactly what she's doing by Dana White.

I don't mind her, honestly. She's annoying, but she seems pretty savvy in regards to the business. I can see why people hate her or at the very least don't respect how she goes about things, but I can see the genius (for lack of a better term) in her ways.

Watching her I feel like her entire life has been spent working towards becoming a reality TV star. She's a personality, at least. I guess.
