I hear y'all, but if ever there was a season to jump back on board it's this one, not just because seeing Chael and Bones do their things is fascinating. Chael especially is hugely impressive as a coach.

But there have also been some of the best TUF fights and finishes ever this season. This guy Urijah Hall, like Dana was saying, when he knocks a mofo out it's so emphatic you almost feel bad applauding because the opponent usually doesn't move for some time afterwards.




On the other hand, he has some issues on the ground ...

I watched this week's episode because I knew Uriah Hall was fighting. Gotta support my homie from Queens. Granted I skipped through the ep and only watched the two fights, but they should take what they can get.

Obviously too late but I would've went with Melendez by decision, Cormier by TKO, Thomson by decision, and Mein by TKO.

What an amazing card top to bottom. Eight knockouts and only one or two lackluster bouts.

I had Gilbert winning the decision but hard to argue either way. Lorenz Larkin got robbed.

I also had Gilbert winning the decision but it was close enough that I won't argue it. Unlike Bendo-Frankie 2 where I thought Frankie won but said nothing because Bendo is the better champion.

Also Larkin got robbed so fuckin hard.

Such a good card.

As for next week I'm gonna save my money. There are some interesting matches but nothing worth 60 bucks. I'll take...

Jones any way he wants it, probably TKO.

Bisping by decision. Belcher is controlled on the ground too easily.

Nelson by submission.

Davis by decision.

Miller by decision. Probably the best fight on the card. I enjoy these Strikeforce/UFC fights.

This is true. But I do like to pay for the good cards and watch in HD on my tv. I'll watch crappy PPVs on pixelated computer screens.

Actually most ppv cards pretty damn good quality. They're streamed from ESPN UK which they get for free at 3am or whatever.

Fox/FX/Fuel cards are way shittier for some reason.
