TUF Season 10.


Jbro

Recommended Posts

UFC Fight night is live tonight at 8pm followed by The Ultimate Fighter season 10. Fight Night has a decent card but I just heard the Sam Stout vs Phillipe Nover fight is off because Nover had a seziure this afternoon but he is going to be okay.

TUF is supposed to be a hell of a season it is all heavyweights and no fighting to get into the house this year. I have already heard on the debut tonight it is the bloodiest fight ever on TUF. I hope Kimbo get's his knocked out in the first fight and I know all of these fighters are good I have seen all of them but 2 fight.

Why does everyone hate Kimbo so much? Because he was a internet sensation? He had some nice bare knuckle knock outs on you tube that were fun to watch.

Probably because he got hyped up to hell by EliteXC and pampered in match ups. He'll win one fight on TUF I think but his lack of ground work is what holds him back.

because he's not an MMA fighter, he's a streetfighter. if he does well it delegitimizes the 'mixed' part and the idea that you have to have a well-rounded game to win.

Ok, want to see what leads people into this business?

1997 EggBowl - Mississippi(aholes) vs MS State. Pregame brawl.

Player Dulymus McCallister aka Deuce....popped a MS Sate JUCO recruit in the face. Wes is highlighted @ minute 2:20 or so. That recruit was Wes Shivers, who is fighting in TUF tonight..or so I am told...hahah. He did end up signing with State.

I was at the game, but walked into the stadium after the melee so i didnt get to see it first hand....

    • Smitty has a bit of the Chris Simms complex.  Became a personality, identified a mid rounder who became great (Kupp), and then ran on that juice for a while, as someone with that keen eye for talent.  But over time, the hit rate adjusts and you see he's not the best at it by any means.  And now they have a falsely built-up confidence in their evals and get all defensive about it.   It's all good.  I hope McMillan proves to be a top-WR in the league and shuts these knuckleheads up.  Now it's time to get this team rev'd up for a big improvement year.    
    • Yards aren't really a good measure alone. He was one of the best QBs in the league in that stretch in most categories but yardage, heh. He definitely was not Burrows but he was pretty good.  Averaged 210 yards passing, 20 yards rushing a game, plus 2 TDs a game.  I'd like to see him continue to improve, but projected over a season those games were just under 4k combined yards (~3600 passing), 35 TDs, 13 TOs. Good for a starter, though not superstar-esque. His raw passing numbers would have been top 15ish, but he proved himself rushing so I don't think that should be ignored.  For me personally I want to see the high level of play over a season. And he still sometimes has several series that are just total head scratchers - I'd like to avoid that, heh.  May be play calling there too.
    • Tepper hasn't changed, he's keeping his ego and bad decisions out of full public view.  Dave's just making the same bad decisions largely behind closed doors.  He's at least self aware enough to know he's not a fan favorite and that's why he's largely taken a back seat to media exposure.  I serious doubt it was some inflection moment, epiphany, course correction or humbleness that Dave had come to realize.
