Guys, this is my first ever season of watching TUF properly and I'm loving it.

Could you good people recommend me which other seasons are the best ones of download.

Cheers.

Kind of know who wins that though.
Not really sure about any of the others though, I know Rashad won too, was it season 2?

The one with Rampage and Rashad, not so much for the fights but Rampage was hilarious in every episode.

Trust me, it's probably the most entertaining of all the seasons. I think it's all on youtube too

you'll know who wins a lot simply based on the fighters you recognaise.

Season one gave us lots of fighters, the winners.
Griffin, Bonnar, Chris Leben, Josh Koschek, Sanchez, Florian, Mike Swick.

Season 2 is good too.

Season 3 annoys me - Matt Hammil/Bisping/Kendel Grove/Kalib Starnes
They all annoy the hell out of me on that show

Season 8 with is ok, the fighters aren't all that great tbh, but its interesting

Season 9 was good, UK vrs USA

Didn't see a whole lot of 4-7, gave up on 10 and 11 too

I loved the season with BJ Penn v Jens Pulver. Some great fights, some great characters, some Gabezilla!

And the rivalry between the 2 coaches was the best of all the seasons IMO. Even better than the Tito v Ken for me.

Watch the TUF 3, just for the final.

Grove/Herman, best TUF fight

lol, em no,
clearly forgeting about

Forrest v Bonnar - contender for one of the best fights ever plus in terms of growth of UFC over the lst 8 years, this fight is hugely important

Bishop to E4 check mate. The Forest Griffin/ Stephan Bonnar fight was one of the greatest fights I've ever seen in UFC.

I think that fight is hugely over rated, the TUF 3 Finale is miles better. It's importance to the UFC has nothing to do with how good it is.

Mellor · 21-10-2010 06:15AM

I never said it was??? Reading every word helps.

I said it was a great fight. It is. Was voted best ever fight from UFC 1-99.

I also mentioned as a separate point it was important to growth, this was a PLUS and obviously has no impact on good the fight is.

calex71 · 21-10-2010 01:05PM

The expression on Kos's face after the 1st fight this week is priceless

21-10-2010 02:33PM

I did NOT expect that to happen at all. 20 seconds! Love that Alaskan guy and how he gets under Koscheck's skin.. The cheekiness of the face touch was ****ing hilarious.

"Now that I think about it...I'm pretty pissed"

Cherry_Cola · 21-10-2010 04:14PM

Delighted for the Alaskan guy, literally leapt of my seat when he sunk it in! That blonde guy looked good too, can't wait to see how they fare in the next round.

YouSavedMyLife · 21-10-2010 04:36PM

Oh wow, i was like holy **** when i saw Cody sink in that guillotine. During the pre fight training that other dude was constantly told to watch the guillotine and then he goes and gets caught in one 20 seconds in. Hilarious.

The other blonde kid looked good also, although havent seen much from that fight.

The english dude should get the wildcard spot, would be a travesty otherwise

scudzilla · 21-10-2010 05:46PM

I started this season wanting Kos to win as i really don't like GSP and his nuthugging fans, now i'm beginning to change my mind

Kos has just posted the following on his Twitter

Should I take this to Montreal ? I hear the French canadian's don't like me. http://yfrog.com/n182huj

http://twitter.com/joshkoscheck

Click on the link and it's a picture of a fcukin knife!!!!!

IMO Kos is NOT acting like a prick, he is NOT being a childish bully and he is NOT being a complete and utter bellend :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

21-10-2010 05:53PM

I watched the Nam Phan (sp?) fight the othernight on Sky Sports. 1st ep I've seen. Have had no interest in TUF in recent seasons.

Kos is coming across as a childish, immature and obnoxious bully and seems to be trying to set that example to his fighters, whereas Georges is humble and classy as always (see his reactions to Hughes' schtick in the diner in the earlier seasons) I think this season could help remind people why GSP became so popular in the 1st place, seeing as he has so much to be arrogant about, and yet he remains humble and respectful. Pity really, as I was starting to like and respect Kos in the last year.

jayteecork · 21-10-2010 08:16PM

Kos' team really have no option than to lick his balls because of the wildcard.
Most of them probably think he's a douchebag too.

Also Spike Tv deliberately edit(maybe stage) these things like ever other reality show from America, just to stir things up for the audience.
i mean, that bit with Kos coming over to the house just so they could give abuse to the people in the garden - ridiculous.

It's a tough old sport though. One mistake and you're finished. Kind of felt sorry for Stevens and Savak.
(anyone notice the massive Irish head on Stevens? I'd say he's first or second generation Irish American)

Kos won't have all the say in the Wildcards, Dana & Georgie will have just as much input but i think Wilkinson is the only cert right now.

As for editing, past house mates have said the editing is sometimes pretty sick

Mr. Loverman · 21-10-2010 08:55PM

That guy Cody is a legend. Was so delighted when I saw them fall to the ground with his arm around his neck...

jayteecork · 21-10-2010 09:05PM

Not sure which one is mistaken but according to wikipedia not all Cody's wins have been by guillotine.

His first fight ended via TKO with punches apparently.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cody_McKenzie

All his guillotine wins have come in first round too. Sick man. Hard to believe he's only 22. He looks like 10 years older at least. Also hard to believe he fights at lightweight.

Minstrel27 · 21-10-2010 09:38PM

Two superb victories this week. Delighted.

stiffler123 · 21-10-2010 09:41PM

I think Cody could go all the way, that choke is sick. Did anyone else hear him say pedal stool instead of pedestal in the pre fight interview tho?

DeVore · 22-10-2010 01:03AM

OMG that was sick! With all the buildup and the trash talk (I really hate trash talk and running down your opponent) I only just said to myself "I hope Cody guillotines him" and I was dreaming of a 1st round one too.... boom! Wow. I was so happy for the goofy alaskan.

Sorry to see Savak go but the blonde guy has a nice attitude and hell of a lot of skills by the looks of it.

Next week I think the amer-indian guy needs to show he has more than a good war-cry. He didnt impress in the prelims but he might be great, who knows.

but man... go Cody.... loved when he tickled Kos under the chin... LOL, the boys got some stones.

scudzilla · 22-10-2010 01:08AM

With so many top Brazilian MMA fighters can anybody ever recall a Brazilian contestant on TUF?

I'd like to see some on an upcoming serious cos i'm sure there's some serious undiscovered talent down there

unknown13 · 22-10-2010 01:08AM

Wildcard is announced next week

I think it will be Wilkinson -V- ?. Wilkinson was by far the most impressive loser.

jayteecork · 22-10-2010 01:21AM

Sorry about this noob question but can the wildcards be from the same team?

I expect so as say Red win again next week that means they only had one loser which would gtd him the wildcard which would seem unfair.
So yeah for fainress sake it seems the 2 wildcards will come from yellow.

DeVore · 22-10-2010 01:25AM

I think the guy Lee Roy knocked out should get it, along with Wilkinson.
