Just finished watchin the final episode of tuf10, them 2 coaches hate each other with a passion!
would love to see that fight, it has potential for fight of the year.
Also Rampage needs to come back for his fans, he would lose all his credability as a fighter if he didnt come back to shut rashads mouth, because lets face it, tuf10 done him no favours on the likeability factor did it. I was never a fan of rashad but on screen he did seem to help nuture his fighters tru out etc

cardio,shoot me

jeez, he lasted half as long as i thought me might

You'll notice none of the people he coached complained about him. He said himself he's not a good cornerman as he takes every loss personally (and poorly), but he puts in the work in the gym.

Unfortunately, he picked a pretty terrible team!

I didn't notice too many compliments either


I hated the way he got on after the coaches challenge(volleyball). He has piped on the whole series about Rashad being cocky, then when Rashad won $10k Rampage starts mouthing off "its only 10 grand, I don't need 10k". The funniest thing about that whole thing IMO was when Rampage turned to his team and says something along the lines of "We don't care, we don't need the money, my team just want me to beat your ass, right guys?" *silence* "RIGHT GUYS?" to which there was a murmur from 1 or 2 of them saying "ummm...yeah"



Yeah Rampage, you really know your team well! These guys have possibly sacrificed jobs, homes, money, family to get a chance of fighting in the UFC and you think they're more concerned about you winning a fight rather than them getting their hands on $1k for being in your team....IF YOU WON

What pissed me off the most was that he never consoled his fighters in the cage after they got beat, im sure its a lonely place to be the best of times, never mind when your dream has just been taking away.

Oh and dont forget the poor guy that had to warm up himself because rampage and tiki were late for some stupid reason.

He was painted as an absolute clown in TUF10. tbh there's only so much of that that you can fake with editing. Bottom line it was the Rampage show in his head. When

Marcus lost in the last fight, Rampage was inconsolable; sayin that he really wanted to win it etc etc. WTF like?

TBH he seems like a douche almighty with some funny one-liners. I really don't like Rashad for some reason though either, and would root for Rampage if they fought. I just think Rashad has a smuggy "too cool" air about him, even though I admire a lot of the values he showed on the show like consoling Rampage's fighters etc, although that's easy to do when you've won. I dunno, hard to put my finger on why I don't like him.

The stand-offs between R+R got a bit tiresome after the first couple aswell tbh. If they were that heated one of them would've at least touched the other one during the whole series.

I agree, but i reckon they both knew if they touched at all, it would of been a brawl there and then. which would not look good for ufc or mma in general. They both showed great disipline i think.
