The Ultimate Fighter: Heavyweights

ARG.

Is it just me, or are these people the most out of shape people i've seen attempt to fight in a LOOOOONNNGGGGG time?

The fights are a disgrace to the community.

I really hesitate to ever say this, because in theory is something way different than in practice. But i honestly think that even i could give half these guys a run for their money. Dance around the first round and avoid getting hit while they tire out, and just swarm their **** the second round.

RIDICULOUS.

When you've got a gut hanging down to your damn knees, something should tell you that "oh hey, i might not be in shape for this fight." WTF.

I think I've seen about one episode. :rolleyes:
On another note, I got Pacquiao beating Cotto by decision. I can’t wait.

I don't care who started it. The show is going to end up with some **** winning the contract, and never winning a fight the rest of his life, and getting paid a 6 figure contract to do so.

There's really not much talent in this group. The british guy is OK i guess. The rest are just trash. Scott Junk should be ashamed of himself for the performance that he put on.

This is the WORST season yet. I enjoyed every other season so far SO much more. When are we going to see a good fight?

I liked the lightweights, and the seasons that had Gray Maynard and Mac Danzig in them.

I can't stop watching this season because it's such a trainwreck, but i get mad everytime i see it. Vicious cycle.

RuSsMaN

I know, everyone is gassed after 1 round.

I'm just watching because I like Rampage and Rashad and the way they interact with each other. I will say one thing I've gotten out of this season is that Kimbo Slice is a real person. I'm actually kind of suprised at his humility and how 'real' he comes across - I expected something totally different.

This season has been a huge snore. All the fights are lame and they just tease Kimbo every week to get people to keep watching otherwise the ratings would be in the toilet. Bring back the lightweights! They are a lot more entertaining.

I agree with you Russ about Kimbo. I think he is winning a lot of people over and seems to be a pretty decent guy. Makes you want to root for him. Hopefully he finds a good camp that will actually help his future.

Kimbo Slice is more talented as a fighter than alot of people, including myself, gave him credit for.

This season may be a train wreck and it has certainly cemented my displeasure at having to watch Roy Nelson but there are good things that have come out of it.

I no longer think that Kimbo can't make it in the UFC. I'm honestly rooting for him and I want to see him succeed. Marcus Jones has some terrifying jiujitsu for a big man. He said he was gonna rip Wessel's arm out and take it home with him and he damn near did. Wessel's arm was visibly deformed and several bones dislocated. The docs checked him out and popped stuff back in to place. His entire arm was swollen and red afterwards. Dana White was even surprised at that.

I think the UFC is going to gain some seriously big dudes out of this. I think Roy Nelson is not going to win the whole deal. At some point he's going to have to beat Marcus Jones because I don't see Schoonover beating Jones. He doesn't seem confident at all. Most of the guys that go through seem to be scared of Jones because they don't know what to expect. Even when he's not angry, the strength he has is immense. But when he was angry, if the ref didn't stop it and pull him off, Wessel would have been destroyed and Jones didn't even break a sweat.

Yeah, interesting times. I think Dana White's Brock Killer experiment here is going to net something substantial. Hopefully its not Roy Nelson.

Marcus Jones, the Brit, and Kimbo are the only ones in this season that are even worth a second look, in my opinion. The rest are underdeveloped, overweight children.

I was very surprised at Kimbo as a person. I never would have guess that he would be that low key and humble.

Disc Jockey

Marcus was very impressive in that win but don't discount Brendon Schaub even though he's quite a bit smaller. He has better footwork than any of the other contestents, good hand speed, and had a nice submission himself with that anaconda.

Arg. SCREW this season.

Matt needs to get his **** beat proper and learn what it is to REALLY have problems. You're going to get punched in the head, it's part of the game. Get over it.

This season was a snoozer for sure. Kimbo's first fight was horrible - granted that dude was the IFL heavyweight champ, but half of that fight was him just sitting his fat **** down.....solid tactic...alittle boring though.

Toxis

Definitely the worst season yet which is hard to say seeing we've had some bad seasons. Kimbo already has a contract and his first fight scheduled with Houston Alexander. That will be a great knockout either way. Like everyone else, kimbo really surprised me after watching him in the ring/YouTube. I figured he was just some POS thug but he's actually a good guy. Marcus is a gentle giant. Terribly scary when it's game time. Hits like a mac truck and great ground game. He'll do well with better training.

Kimbo vs. Houston Alexander isn't going to prove much of anything... we both know they like to slug it out. It'll sure be entertaining, though. Maybe they can set him up with James Irvin next?

Toxis

it'll be a slug out yes which we need in the ufc now. The pay per view last weekend was a bore. Seriously who put Forrest as a main event against someone who hasn't fought in how long? Zzzzzz. Tito was great 5-8 years ago. Give it up. Forrest is a sore winner and a worse loser. He ran out of the ring crying twice. And he said he broke his jaw when the doctor said it wasn't even hurt more than a bruise. I really can't stand him. I want tito's shirt though that said "run Forrest run!" we were saying that after he ran from silva. LOL.

Hrmmm.... well, at first i was mad that i forgot about this, but now i'm glad i did.

Forrest is just an emotional boy. At least he's got some humbleness to him. I can't stand Tito. He's a punk.

I'm still not sure what happened with the Silva/Griffin fight. It still smells all wrong.

Toxis

humble? Forrest? He's a complete douschbag! I bet he wears we hardy shirts with a popped collar underneath. That's how big of a dousch he is. I guess he's a real **** when not on camera too. Talks down to everyone and will push peope out of his way when walking.

ohskigod

odd, I thought they had some pretty good fights over the weekend. good technical battles. maybe not the biggest names out there but some of the best fights you'll see are from people you never heard of.

ARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG............

Roy Nelson. Really.

I wish i could say i didn't see it coming, but i did. I sat there the whole fight just waiting for Roy to throw one down Brendan's pipe, and boom, there it was.



Is anyone else amused by Marcus Jones' balsa wood chin?

The funny thing is, Big Baby was quoted saying, "2 years ago I couldn't even throw a punch". What exactly does he call a punch????

ohskigod

I knew Roy was going to take it. say whatever ya want, that fat boy can fight. his cardio is surprisingly good for his appearance.

the king wants it his way!!!!!

I wouldn't want to get punched by him, that's for sure. I think he could eventually be a force to reckoned with, if he could stiffen up his chin.

Yeah... i have to agree with you.

I didn't want to admit it, but i thought it was either going to be him or McSweeney to take the whole thing.

I couldn't believe how horrible Houston Alexander looked...and he gave away sooooo much respect to Kimbo....dude was practically running scared!

Oh yeah... i forgot to rant about this one....

Everyone who's seen Houston fight before was probably appalled. I thought this was going to be a great fight. A terrible fight when looking purely at technique and skill, but a VERY entertaining fight, nonetheless. Houston to me, always seemed like a street fighter. PERFECT match for Kimbo.

But WTF was all that? All his strategy showed was that he even thought that Kimbo was better than him, and the second round definitely showed this. Kimbo DOMINATED him in ALL areas, showing that Houston is definitely not a complete fighter, as Kimbo's ground game is still rudimentary at best, yet he was able to rag doll Houston however he wanted. The fact that Houston still couldn't cut down Kimbo, despite Kimbo's bad knee problem spoke volumes. I no longer have respect for Houston. How long do you think Kimbo would have been standing if Keith Jardine for instance, was throwing leg kicks at him? He MIGHT have survived ONE kick.

I thought this was going to be great, but knowing what i know now, they should have sent James Irvin after him if they were looking for an exciting all out bang it out war.

The Sandman and Slice would have been something to see.

My girlfriend agrees, but i think she just wants to sleep with the Sandman, dumb tattoos and all.

I was pretty dizzy after the first round of that match. I replayed the slam by kimbo a few times. That could have broke Houston's neck! crazy!
