Frankie needs to get a mount or crucifix on Uriah at least once so the ref can run over and vaccinate him.

After the Aldo fight I would have thought Uriah would have a better understanding of the dangers of polio

I would have thought all MMA fighters would swear vaccines after seeing BJ Penn fight like he had lockjaw in the third Edgar fight.

I just caught up on the new TUF season. 1) how do we not have a thread for this yet 2) Lambert's constant whining about the Blackzilians "buying" their fighters and "not making their own" is pretty hilarious given his primary success in the UFC right now is Noted Homegrown ATT Product Robbie Lawler

I'm enjoying it too. I figured no one cared a gently caress about it since there's no thread. I really appreciate the new graphics and production values too. really sets the series apart. enjoying it. both owners are arseholes.

Well, I mean it's also hilarious because Lambert built ATT by poaching Liborio and Conan from BTT because he was a rich hotel/drug dude and had the connections to get them into the country.

Warehouse copper theft looks a bit high class for him, seems like the kind of guy who nicks it from railway signals to me.

Is the new TUF only available on TV? Don't see it on FightPass.

# ? May 2, 2015 21:48 |

Usually episodes start to show up on Fight Pass a few weeks after airing on FS1 (I want to say three weeks, but I could be wrong).

Current TUF fighters: ATT Marcelo Grilo Alfaya – 16-7; losses to Fitch (2013) and Ellenberger (2009) Steve Carl – 21-4; win over Burkman (2013), lost to Palhares (2014) Nathan Soulforce Coy – 14-5; win over Rick Story (2007), split decision loss to Woodley (2010) Michael Graves – 4-0; 3 TKO/KO, 1 sub over bad competition Hayder Hulk Hassan – 6-1; 5 TKO/KO, 2 wins over people on the show Sabah The Punisher Homasi – 8-4 against trash opponents Uros Jurisic – 4-0 in Slovenia! Steve The Creepy Weasel Montgomery – 8-2; wins over Colton Smith (2012) & Brock Jardine (2014) Blackzillians Valdir BBMonster Araújo - 14-5; lost to Weidman (2010) Carrington Banks – 3-0 against fighters with a combined record of 9-35 Luiz Buscapé – 18-6; wins over Tyson Griffin (2014), Volkmann (2013) and 2 losses against Kawajiri Jason Jackson – 4-2; lost to ATT’s Hassan by TKO in 2013 Vicente Luque – 7-4; win over Thiago Santos (2012) Andrews Nakahara 4-2-2(?); losses to Sakuraba (2008) and Chonan (2010) Felipe Balboa Portela – 8-2; lost to ATT’s Hassan by TKO (2014), submitted teammate Luque (2010) Kamaru The Nigerian Nightmare Usman – 5-1; all wins by KO/TKO The drama amongst the coaches is pretty lame so far. The fights haven't been totally terrible yet and I imagine the tension in the house could get somewhat interesting.

Dana's bitching about boring fights is particularly stupid this season. He intentionally created a tournament system that rewards "winning" with same number of points whether the win is by finish or decision and is getting pissed that Blackzillians are gaming that by sending in wrestlefuckers to lay on dudes for 10 minutes. If it was something like 10 points for a decision, 25 for a finish, then you would have one team able to make a comeback with a single submission or knockout if the other team was just using Roy Nelson tactics. Even in normal TUF tournament rules, there is a lot of incentive to hold back and not risk injury in early fights, and that's only going to be worse in a tournament where you aren't even fighting for yourself but for your team.

Remember when Roy Nelson told his team that they were there to win, not put on a show, and Dana called it the worst advice he'd ever heard?

Watching Joanna champion TKO Carla was more entertaining than the "fight of the century". It was 18 years since I saw my last boxing match, and I don't think I'm going to watch another one.

If only there was some sort of plant... a type of 'weed' or 'herb', as it were... that would cause Nick to feel these happy thoughts on a regular basis... Seriously, though, non-fighting Nick seems like an okay guy. It's just that he hates everything involved in promoting and publicizing fights that he comes off like a persistent rear end in a top hat. And it turns out, the only time most people see anything of Nick is when he's promoting or publicizing fights, so, yeah. acejackson42 fucked around with this message at 09:40 on May 3, 2015 |
