Tait Fletcher speaks
This is from TUF forums
"One and only time I say this I hope. We knew we were going to be asked to fight. It was a day b4 weighins if memory serves. I was to be the first in the room with Dana, Ken and Tito. I asked Mike and Kristian if they were hot for the spot in the semis, cuz at that point, I just didnt care either way. They both said they wanted it. I told them ok, "i will take myself out of it then." I told Dana that I'd go, but wasnt 100% into it and that other guys were. I didnt wanna take their spot. Either way, thats the truth of the matter."

so Kristian tells Tait he wants the spot, so what compelled Kristian to tell Dana that he has a headache and cant fight???

The whole point of him competing on TUF is to get to the finals. He gets a second chance and he turns it down? I don't care what your excuse is, if you have a chance to fight to prove yourself as a fighter and you turn it down, then you're not a real fighter.

The whole thing was pretty weird. You could tell that Dana was wigged out by it. Pointon, as game as he is, probably won't pose much of a threat for Bisping. Matt and Bisping would have been a great fight. I'm dissapointed to see Matt out.

Yeah no matter what happened that was crazy. Two people turning down a chance to win one fight and be in the live finals. No reason to turn it down unless you were only there to begin with to be on TV and get exposure. I know the mental thing is a big part of the game, but you should be mentally strong enough going into something as big as that to take advantage of any and every opportunity you get.

Fuck Tait he's an idiot... If you don't take a chance to lose and be one win from the LIVE TELEVISION FINALS you're an ass... I hope he never makes it with his goofy ass facial hair... I'm completely drunk on a side note.
