LMAO at Richie Hightower

[Jellypig]

I was actually hoping hightower would try and fight against mac, that woulda made my day right there. Mac woulda had a party over it man, I just wanted to see him murder him and embarrass him even further. But either way, he was exposed for the bitch he really is and that makes me very happy .

Well, since you capitalized "horrible" you must be right.


IMO the show has had a lot of classic moments. Another person bitched out and went home b/c of a girl, Danzig was going crazy in the house and we got to see some of his personality in depth, the shit talking and team losses led to a frustrated Hughes, and lets not forget the upper decker incident.

And though the fights weren't the most technical, they were still entertaining. Almost all of them ended by TKO or sub and the fights that didn't were pretty exciting also.

Agree to disagree.

he got called back because they can pay him nothing to get KOed by some welterweights they're grooming for highlight reels.

seeing danzig put the stamp on hightower wulda made an otherwise shitty season a little bit better. Although watching tommy put the stamp on george was pretty sweet. LOL, at least george didnt go for a duble leg like josh haynes did, lol that was just terrible LOL

Smoogy -

The whole point of TUF is to have up and comers. Yeah nobody besides Danzig are the real deal right now (and even Danzig is only really all that at LW I think - hes too small for a true WW), but there is talent there. For example, Tommy has sick potential even if its not all together right now. A few of the other guys are in the same boat.

So yeah, if you want to see fighters who are great right now, TUF isnt the place to get that. But if you want to see up and comers for free, TUF does the job.

TUF6 hasnt been that great, but its been OK and the talent isnt that horrible. If you look at the potential of the top 4 this season compared to last season, its really not that different.

Also, am I the only one who would really like to see Danzig fight a lot of the guys from last season? I'd like to see Danzig v Lauzon and Danzig v Diaz for sure.

Agree to disagree.

I agree Bullock Brent, most of the fights this season were at least finished. Most seasons they go for 2 rounds with no one really trying to finish the fight, that wasn't the case this season, and that made it a little more entertaining in my book.

[leedogg900]

this season wasnt too bad. it had an obvious lack of talent. but otherwise it wasnt bad.

[DonFrye]

1. Putting Danzig in the house was bullshit to begin with. No way should a 7-year vet be considered an up-and-comer.

2. Hightower looked ok in his second fight. He was game. It's easy for a lot of people who have never fought to sit back and call someone a pussy for not wanting to fight, but I promise you it's tough to dust yourself off and fight again less than a week after having what is "Your Dream" shattered on national TV. That being said, Hightower is still a tool.

3. The difference in skills this season was all too evident. A bunch of freaking thug brawlers and a few true fighters with really good technique. It looked like a toughman contest to me.

[slikguy]

now i agree that hightower is a bitch..... however i do agree with his decision not to fight. Danzig is a formidable opponent albeit somewhat small for a WW but still a very experienced fighter.
i would not want to fight danzig without a decent camp and watching some of his fight tapes.
there's a good saying...
Failing to plan is planning to fail.
as far as hightower, he's an annoying prick but he's got some heavy hands
