    Decent fight this week I guess, have to say my opinion of Tito was raised slightly immediately following the fight.

    Yeah, i have to agree. Was a nice display from Tito, good coach attitude rather than previous seasons 'coaches'.

    Decent episode with a decent fight.

    Tito came across as a good coach the 1st time, he just came across as a rather annoying human being... and he didn't get on with Shamrock at all... who turned out to be a knob.
    He'll come across well in this too I would imagine and so will Liddell.

    Tito came across very well as a coach first time and seems to be doing the same this time.

    Although i'm not 100% sure about his tactic to practice Triangle excapes right after the fight.

    Having said that, Clayton gave up that triangle. He had plenty of time to get out of it but seemed to just give it. And his "Damn, i triangle?" business right after the finish was just bull. I don't think he had the heart to be there.

    (ps, is it just me or does everyone else think Clayton is very like Jason Miller?)

    Sorry, let me clarify about the coaching comment. I wasn't saying that Tito was a bad coach before. It's just nice to see the coaches being coaches again. Rather than what we got we Rampage and Henderson.

    It could just be the stupid haircuts but sometimes he reminds me of him.

    Its hard to find a pic where Mayhem isnt pulling a stupid face:

    Awww, chill dawgs, it's all good etc etc.

    He's very annoying but i liked his fight. Great kicks (even if they were against a punchbag)

    A decent wrestler would make bits of him, I'd say.

    Indeed! I reckon thats why he was a pretty late pick, he didnt really get a chance to show any skills..... apart from killer kicks.


  • Registered Users Posts: 921 ✭✭✭sonic.trip


    The afro guy needs to be knocked out asap :D. Had a feeling the ozzy would win alright. Why does somebody always have stupid coloured hair on TUF??

    Cant wait for next weeks episode now with this announcement :D

    Yea sure looked like him to me, I saw an interview with Dana where he was giving out about the way Strikeforce were treating Shields and now with this appearance on TUF he is more than likely gonna sign for the UFC next i'd say

    I read another interview where Sheilds was saying he's not going to be shown much in the series, being SF Champ, but understands Dana can't exactly go around promoting champs from other orgs.

    What i thought was kinda strange though was that they didn't have any mention of Razor Rob coaching on Tito's team. Sure he's been part of the furniture at WEC since the day Zuffa bought it.

    I'd actually like to see that Clayton guy fight again. He was impressive in the qualifing round and seems an interesting dude.


  • Posts: 3,518 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    That aussie guy is good but Clayton just packed it in then bitched afterwards.
    I think my money's on Noke or Ring to win this one.
    Jamie Yager should be knocked out just for his nickname. "The Chosyn 1"

    #3 is another decent episode. long may it continue, it definitley seems to be more about good fights than wackin off in someones salad this year! but that bloke wit the afro needs to get some serious slaps.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 314 ✭✭Denners


    Episode 3 was solid, good grappling match to be honest, Brad must have had that kimura defence lock for around 7/8 mins during rd 2 and 3. Mazzagatti the clown had to be told 8 times that Brads shorts were being held before he reprimanded the fighter. Psyched for next week, im predicting it was an extremely early stoppage by strikes or by a minor cut

    Just seen the first fight on episode 4 (UFC need to have replays in the rules)

    They do don't they?

    Didn't Mazaghatti use it recently to disqualify someone who elbowed the back of the head? Jones I think?

    I dont think the replay played any part there.
    But it did prevent the james irvin sakara match from going to a no contest cuz the ref saw it was a punch went into irvins eye and not a finger.
