Dunno about the authenticity of what the guy said, but an SD poster claimns that his local newspaper said tonight's fight would be:

 

Josh Rafferty vs. Diego Sanchez, which if true, would lead me to believe Couture's team already got sick of his attitude and fed him to the proverbial wolves.

I read that on SD too, and it throws a wrench in the potential spoiler. It's like reading that spoiler cancels out the one we heard before about who the mystery fighter is.

 

The guy who you think is being fucked over is a well known competitive No-Gi Jiu Jitsu guy. I've seen him on sub grappling comps and the like before I even watched this one. He has a shot definitely. I'd just love to see the aftermath if he does pull it off, or even if he doesn't.

 

Of course, this spoiler could be fake.

I think you may be confusing Rafferty with Kenny Florian, who's a BJJ stud and also has lots of no-gi grappling experience as well.

lol, you're right. Those are the two guys that I really confused since they were the only two guys on the show who were never focused on, like at all. Just faceless, dark haired white guys. Or something.

 

But yeah, not only is he not a BJJ stud, he was armbarred by Shannon Ritch. Death sentence right there.

Now that things are narrowing down, who are your picks to win it all?

 

Based on the limited knowledge I had beforehand, I had picked Bonnar(Josh Barnett Jr.) and Sanchez. I think they both still have a chance, and Sanchez is actually the odds-on favourite at this point, with Koscheck (Mini Kerr) being exposed and especially with Quarry being hurt, who I think is his only competition on the show. We all know who the big favourite is for LHW, and that's Sam Hoger...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Damnit, where's that Forrest No gif?

Two judges gave it 2-0 for Bonner, and the other judge gave it 2-0 to Southworth? What kind of dumbass shit is that? Sounds like a payoff to one or more of the judges....

I thought they were using the point system, not the round system?

It seems to me like they're half-assing the rules as they go.

I thought the point of the matches was to have the loser eliminated. So if it was 2-1 Bonnar why is Southworth still on the show?

Why not show more of the Drama Queen?

OK, here's my question - normally in the UFC, if a fighter can't compete, they have an alternate. So in that context, bringing back someone isn't THAT bad, is it?

Why is Nate leaving if he is an Assistant Coach to Randy?

Because he's no longer a participant. He's a coach. Chuck and Randy don't live with the guys, so I guess there's no reason for Nate to live with the guys.

I seem to say this every week, but Willa is hot, but fucking useless. It's MMA, it comes on after Raw, and we can accept that there are no chicks on this show...
