Yeah I like Josh K too, seems like a really good kid. I'm not too high on Southworth or Sanchez, especially wish Sanchez running off at the mouth. Leben is crazy and a jerk sometimes but I'll miss him if he goes.
I'm still pulling for Nate overall though, just seems like a really well put together person.

I just read on SD that Tito made $175,000 for beating belfort, Vitor made $100,000 and had a win bonus of 40k.
We are in the wrong sport for making money that's for sure

I have only seen the one episode where Southworth was sucking weight for his fight. I liked the show though, not sure some of those guys can really fight but I guess we will see.

Yeah Tony, but look at some of those beatings those guys GIVE, besides I've been beat up for free before might as well get paid for it.

I say, follow the philosophy of Gary Goodridge: Arm-wrestle and fight. Man can Gary put a beating on some guys.

Yes I watched the show, probably my favorite one so far. Can't believe I'm saying that because I really hate getting wrapped up in any television show. I'm pretty sure I know who wins in Leben vs Josh K., so please don't read the bottom of this post if you don't want to know. I actually felt bad for Leben after what Southworth and Josh K. did to him, then again Leben hasn't been known for being very friendly to put it lightly. I think they had the best resolution as nobody was kicked off, Chris and Josh K. will fight it out, and the damage to the house will be paid for. Also they're taking away any alcohol and there will be something about making the training more team oriented. On a side note, Nate made himself even cooler in my eyes, I hope he heals up and can start training again soon. On to the spoiler, don't say I didn't warn ya... In the intro to the show, there is a short clip of Josh. K celebrating with ring gear on. I also heard that Leben wasn't seen at last UFC event which would mean he was likely eliminated.

True Leben wasn't at the last ufc, but that doesn't mean much since Loudune was there after Bobby ko'd him. Leben was probably up getting a beer.
I taped the show and watched the trailor in slo-mo, I don't think they would give away that much, but I can't wait for next week.
Dana white has really changed my opinion of him, he actually has a personality, and spinners on his ride which makes him cooler

The impression that Sherdoggers gave me is that Dana was a real @hole, but he really doesn't seem all that bad. He seems like he's down to business but all around not so bad either.
Chuck and Randy both seem cool as hell too, especially Chuck. I hope I can afford their April PPV.
Here's hoping that Leben wipes the floor with Josh K, next week is going to be awesome. I just it doesn't end up as Nate vs Leben somewhere down the line, especially after last night's episode.

I just finished watching the latest episode, a lot of filler/build up before the Koschek vs Leben fight. Koschek got the nod by UD, though a UD after 2 rounds is pretty weak. Personally I would have liked to see it go another round, though Leben didn't do very much through the rounds to score points. Leben could have won by kimura but didn't lock it out, needs more ground work especially on his back. It also looked like he may have been able to score a triangle choke, but alas Nogueira he is not. On a side note, the T.U.F. editors are morons. The Koschek win is in the opening, if only for a split second. I thought it may be but this confirmed it. Any idea who the two fighters are on the next show? PS: I'd pay to see W. Silva take on all of these guys one at a time
