Why all the Riddle bashing? I think he's really young and new, and still was at least respectable in his fights. An opportunity like this to put him in touch with some high-end fighters early in his career could lead to his developing into a great fighter one day. More than most people on the show Riddle is a seed they planted now to grow later.

Then Matt Riddle hasn't done anything worthwhile the whole show but change his hair color, he is boring as anyone in TUF history, and to make matters worse, he is one of only 3-4 guys already booked for the finale. Where's the sense?
May is an unprofessional douchebag but he earned the right by beating someone to get on the show. Riddle is an entertaining guy not to mention he knocked that guy out cold. So therefor both deserve to be there no matter how much you dislike them.

Yeah, I kinda like "Chipper" anyway. He's funny.

I don't understand why Dana would even want the footage of all the fighters trashing the house to be seen since supposedly the UFC doesn't want their fighters to have the image of being crazy obnoxious drunks.I thought that they wanted to spread the image of their fighters as being educated,well-mannered and non-violent outside of the cage.I'm sure that many viewers that see the trashing of the house episodes tend to stereotype the UFC fighters as a whole. Not the best way to sell the sport to the non-MMA fans I wouldn't think.

Truth. Now, if one of them say...burns the house down, then it's a different story. Arson is a whole 'nother level over destruction of property.

I'm just wondering why anyone still watches this show.
