Soap Opera is TV…This is a TV show FIRST. A fighting tournament SECOND.

First off, WTF on the weigh-ins???
I thought J-Dub would win, I didn’t except him to do what he did to Wes. Funny how he was running his mouth constantly, then he loses and becomes humble.
What do you guys think about Matt Mitrione’s shoulder? Think he’s faking it? Shooting hoops one day, grappling another day, then it hurts periodically? Not adding up.
When Rashad called Rampage selfish, that actually made Rampage pause for a second. And not helping out his guys after a fight again is pretty weak on Rampage’s part, as well as his coaching staff. If Rampage doesn’t check on his guys, the coaches need to, as Rashad pointed out.
Marcus is really sensitive. Rashad was right, he didn’t promise Marcus he would fight next, Marcus put words into his mouth. I think for motivation, all Rampage has to do with Marcus is right before his fight, tell him someone destroyed his flowers back home, that should get him fired up.[/quote]
That was funny when Rampage told him he was going to go check up on his team and then Rashad said “You’re going to go check your texts”
Wes Sims horrible showing was surprising. He had considerable physical advantage in reach and probably strength, he also had considerably more experience in the ring, he just got dominated.
I’m looking forward to see Marcus Jones fight, that guy has serious knock out power, but that hasn’t stopped the better wrestlers from dominating so far.

Wes was a huge disappointment. If he was really serious about MMA, he probably wouldn’t be training at the hammer house.
I think the best is yet to come. I am excited to see what Marcus, Junk, and Matt M can do.
The look of excited expactation followed by angry, bitter, disappointment on Marcus face was hillarious.

I guess he really did step in a family of Jensens.

I know this sounds mean, but that was really funny. Marcus looked like a kid in a candy store, then when he wasn’t chosen, he looked sad like someone took something from him. Rashad calling him Big Baby was funny. And Rashad is right, he didn’t promise Marcus he would fight next, Marcus put words in Rashad’s mouth.
However, I think when Marcus finally does fight, he’s gonna do some damage.

It’s not just Rashad calling him Big Baby. That’s his nickname. And I have to agree with the other guys who said that Marcus was putting words in Rashad’s mouth. I guess he was just looking forward to fighting so much that when Rashad said he might be fighting he didn’t hear the “might” part. Still, I want to see him fight sooner rather than later since he looks like he’d put on a hell of a fight.
Oh, and Wes Sims seriously needed the big old slice of humble pie that Justin gave him. Sims was a cocky jackass who seriously needed a reality check. I was loling when Dana White was saying how he thought Wes’s performance was pretty weak and that he was interested in Justin.
Wes Sims was homeless living in a sleeping bag under a bridge before TUF. I wish Sims had a better showing because he is a better fighter. Plus I would of liked to have seen how good that other guy really is.
Marcus may be strong but that only lasts for 20 seconds before he gasses and dies from cardiac arrest. The guy is a former NFL player and he can’t push his own body off the ground a couple times in a row before passing out.
Did anyone see the footage of Rashad fighting with Rampage’s assistant coach? It is fucking hilarious how badly Rashad tools that d-bag. “Have you won any fights in the UFC?” “No.” “My bad for bringing it up then.”
If you haven’t seen the video of Rashad and Tiki arguing it’s worth a watch. Pretty funny stuff.

Geez man, Sims was living under a bridge? A man with his experience and physical abilities can do so much. Oh well…
I also saw the footage of Evans and Tiki. That was kind of silly for Tiki calling out Evans to fight. Evans’ too smart for that crap, that’s a loose/loose situation for him. What’s also silly was Evans saying he can kick Tiki and Jackson’s ass at the same time. C’mon, I don’t think Lesnar can beat up two top light weight at the same time, lol…
I thought the old asshole Rashad showed through. Why was he picking on Rampage’s assistant coach for apparently no reason?
Did anyone see who it looked like supposedly might get hurt and provide an opening for Kimbo? I hope it wasn’t Junk, I want to see him fight, perhaps against Schoonover. Every week I’m expecting it to be the week something awesome happens and then afterward I think, “oh well, guess I’ll wait for next week.”

It appears Kimbo will fight again. That’s certainly what the all the advertisments would lead us to believe. I was also reading one of the fighter blogs or maybe an interview. They were talking about Kimbo being friendly with everbody, even the guys he fights. “Guys” being plural. It sure would be funny if he loses again. 0-2 with this cast would not be good for one’s record.

I am not sure, they seem to be playing up everyone’s injuries as a way to string along Kimbo fans to keep the viewing figures up. Mind you, if he doesn’t get back in that would probably piss people off.
You can guarentee that he is fighting on the UFN finals show regardless.

Tiki started the fight man not Rashad. Tiki got pissed that Rashad was calling out Rampage on his shitty coaching. So Tiki stepped up to the plate and Rashad put him in his place.
What Rashad were you watching he looke like a bitch who didn’t want to fight Tiki.

LOL…and why would Rashad fight Tiki? This isn’t high school. Tiki was out of his league…shouldn’t have tried to follow Rampage’s bullshit mouth.
I just hate sugarnips and pretty much everyone at Jacksons.
yeah Tiki was a average fighter at best and of what i see not a very good coach either
