They really should get Mario Yamasaki to ref the flyweight matches, the fighters look like children standing next to Big John.

Was gutted to see Rampage leave but he's past it now and can't hang with any of the top 5-7 fighters. Glover is not gonna be anywhere near a title shot for a while, he might be the first person to drop Rampage with a punch but he's not beating the top five for me.

I think he would get beat by Hendo, Rashad, Mousasi, Loyoto, Jones and Gus to be honest.

Looking forward to seeing the Reem back in action this weekend and Aldo and Edgar will be a brilliant fight.
 
Tuf was an ok episode last night but next weeks should be a cracker.. Dana said it was the most violent KO he's ever seen and the loser gets carted off in an ambulance.. Nice :D

Yeah, and I'd advise anybody that wants it to remain a mystery doesn't watch the preview at the end of the first episode, you can clearly see which guy it is getting put in the ambulance!

As for UFC 156, my picks are Benavidez, Fitch, Overeem, Evans, Aldo.

edit: it's just occurred to me that the editors of TUF could have been pulling a fast one by showing that ambulance bit at the end, throwing a red herring in there to make people doubt who's going to be knocked out.

Yeah you can, but the guy in the ambulance isn't either of the individuals that are fighting next week.

Could be that the ambulance trip isn't the result of a knock-out but an injury sustained in training and we've been duped by a bit of creative editing?

Or then again Dana did say that there is a "monster in the house" knocking people out left and right, so perhaps the ambulance footage isn't from next week's [Dana White]zOMG mOstESt BrooTal KO eVar!!!1[/Dana White] but shows one of his future victims instead?
 
What happened to that Brazilian kid from Bisping Mayhem (i think). Everyone was scared of him and he knocked most of the people out who he fought.

That was the last series of TUF I watched before this current one, the fighter you're thinking of is Diego Brandao; he's had a decision win and decision loss since winning the TUF final in spectacular fashion with the armbar from guard.

Some MMA news on twitter right now:

Just land in Vegas. Rumors of a HUGE drug test failure. Not a shock. Working on details. U figure it out.

Latest on rumor... Vitor Belfort definitely used TRT for the Bisping fight. Whether he was granted approval by UFC, I do not know right now

With a win over Silvia Overeen gets the next title shot

Yep, I don't see the Silva vs Overeem fight even being close. Silva looked pretty average against Velasquez (who admittedly is a beast), and Overeem has some scary good striking. Silva's only hope of a win will probably be in taking the fight to the ground. Either way, Overeem will most likely get the KO or TKO win and then get a shot at Cain.

To be fair the cut that he sustained very early on effectively ended his chances in that fight; not saying that it wasn't a legit win for Velasquez, just that I wouldn't base my expectations of how Bigfoot will perform on the basis of his worst defeat.
