I dont think everyone has seen the TUF yet so im not gonna try and give too much away

But seriously, what is the POINT in keepin these guys who have been fighters before, there not up and comers like in the regular TUF cooped up in a house with no TV or anything? what the hell are you gonna teach them! they know the hardships of training what is the point of putting it through that again? makes no sense.. I dont wanna spoil the show so ill stop here but im mad about the show right now.

I think it is like any other reality show. Dana doesn't want the end given away early. All it takes is a pissed off fighter that lost (spratt last week) to go out of the house all emotional and shit and give it away. I understand about not leaving and not using a telephone but not having tv or radio is pretty absurd. I am at work and haven't watched yet but it is on tivo at home.

Ya I can understand the silence treatment but these fighters should NOT be treated like the up and comers, they already paid there dues.. Dana IMO looks like a real prick sometimes with his actions

if you watch the contender, the boxers dont get that kinda treatment.. I dont think they get to watch TV but at the same time I dont think theres a TV in the house! plus they get a phonecall as well.. Sugar Ray takes them out every night.. there active. Dana treats his dudes like dogs I swear!

I feel bad for Jeremy I really do.He fucked up and I hope he gets brought back on an UFN or something.I don't think Dana is a horrible person though.I mean they're only in the house for what 4 weeks?If you can't handle that you don't deserve to be on the show.These guys are getting the opportunity of a life time.They should take it serious.

I have friends like Jeremy.You know it's like they're afraid of things going well for them.Everytime something starts to go their way they feel like they have to do something to fuck it up.It's weird.

Im not sayin Dana is horrible, im sayin hes fuckin up

ya its an "opportunity of a life time" so is playing in the NBA so does that mean every NBA player should be thrown in a jail cell and fed dog food for 4 weeks just because there gettin an opportunity of a life time?

there is NO NEED for Dana to treat VETERANS like that, they dont need to pay any more dues they have already done that.. I dont see any professionalism outta Dana White

They get fed well.Jeremy was getting treated very well.This is a guy who sleeps in his car.I'm sure living in a mansion with a jacuzzi,a pool,a pool table,and world class trainers to help make you better ,beats living in your car.They're not being treated that bad.4 weeks is nothing.

I understand that they got a lot of luxuries but I dont understand being treated like the rookies.. I dont understand why they cant watch television, and I think Dana should take these guys out more often cuz I dont see the point in them havin to pay there dues anymore the only thing that Dana should worry about is them leaking info otherwise everything else should be fair game.

Its a simple question of if they want it. Seriously, 6 weeks in a house where all you have to worry about is eating (and you dont have to pay for your food), sleeping, and training. No food bills, no rent, no nothing other than to focus 100% on a dream. Whats the hell is 6 weeks to change your life? Dana explained it best when he basically said fighters bitch about what they're losing rather than seeing what they're getting.

You dont honestly think that being in a luxory house for 6 weeks without having to pay anything and having access to world class trainers and a gym is part of paying dues do you?

but wasnt that Danas way for the other TUF contestants to pay there dues.. total isolation from the rest of the world, im not bitchin about the house and the other luxuries.. its being so isolated

now I dont think what Jeremy Jackson did was wrong but still these guys should be able to watch TV, I mean they really dont evne have to be in the house.

I know what you're saying and it sucks for Jeremy, but the consensus of the guys in the house is that he fucked up and shoulda just waited it out like the rest of them.
