did you folk see tuf on virgin on sunday??? our brit bot nick ozcpaickxckck's lovey head kick....laaavley
Yeah, he looked a lot better in that fight then in the prelim's, I thought the other guy would hammer him. Still a strange choice for team USA, putting a stiker against someone with such a big reach advantage.

It was a really good episode, liked the way they focused on watching the fight video and pulling together the game plan. They don't usually show stuff like that.

Loving the Bisping mind games too. Hope they don't come back to bite him in the arse when he fights Hendo!

Anyone catch TUF last night?

That andre chap was clearly the better fighter, that was only ever gonna go one way. Unfortunately the same could be said for that demarques USA chap in the second fight.

Most curious to find out why Bisping didnt show for the fight, seems bang out of order to be honest, I'd be livid if I was in team UK.

Yep thought exactly the same, watching next week's promo at the end it looks like he may have had a good reason but we shall see.

Hmmm, I reckon it's probably staged. They do love a bit of drama on TUF!

Hi Guys

I've just started getting into UFC after playing the demo of the new game for PS3. I've just pre-ordered the game, but want to get a UFC DVD with it. Any recommendations?

UFC 79 was a good one. Liddell v Wanderlai Silva & Matt Hughes v Georges St Pierre were the headliners.

Cheers mate.

Just having a look now at the DVD's, one that does stand out is UFC 43, 52 & 57, a tenner for all three, any good?

It looks good as all the others are 12 quid each.

Yeah, that's the Couture v Liddel trilogy. UFC 57 was the 1st one I watched!

The ultimate knockouts collections are always pretty entertaining.

Well the TUF episode was pretty interesting.....

Felt bad for that stapes guy first up, he just didnt have his gameface on, it was like a non-contest but I do actually quite like that USA bod (cameron?) he's cocky and mouthy, but I respected his honesty saying he was shitting it lol

The second fight was great, USA bod was so full of it and he got decimated....admittedly that brit guy cant strike for shit, but his leg kicks were good and that knee was oh so awesome and I was pretty confident the fight would only go one way, wish he had finished with some ground and pound or a nice KO strike though

Does the USA guy owe his teammate $400?

Matey was a right pitbull! Felt a bit bad about that illegal knee mind as it was pretty clumsy and it did rock matey to f*ck. Pretty sure our boy would have cleaned up anyway mind....

Looking forward to saturday

In the words of Joe Rogan... WOW!!!! Machida was awesome and like he said, welcome to the Machida Era.

Rampage must be gutted right now, there's no way he's beating Machida any time soon!

Strange, Rampage has ducked another title shot to coach on the next season of TUF (opposite Evans).

Rua signed as next contender to fight Machida at UFC104 (another easy win for Machida I think).

TUK was weak in the last ultimate fighter, damn shame.

Dont forget strikeforce this weekend.

Interesting post by geoff274544 in a different thread about the future of the UFC if setanta go bust. Maybe Bravo or more likely Virgin 1 may get the rights back.
