I usually do not like Ultimate Finales because the fights are a bore. This one was no exception.

Season 1 and 2's fights were great.

AKIRA · 06-22-2009, 11:00 PM

Ok 2 seasons were acceptable out of how many? 9? 8?

I think they are going into their 10th season.

AKIRA · 06-23-2009, 12:53 PM

This next one may be good. They NEED heavyweights, so its about time they fill their void.

On the other hand, I didnt want Rampage to be a coach. He wasnt all that great the first time and he is next in line to rock Lyoto.

I dont like how they jumbled all that up.

CORUM · 06-23-2009, 01:37 PM

rampage should fight lyoto, but he wants to fight rashad BAD!!! why not handle personal grudges in the ring and get paid for it!!! AWESOME!!! think how great it would be a guy piss you off in a bar, and the two of you get to fight for almost 250K that would be great.... throw an ass whoopin and get paid!!!

Rampage, Rashaad and Kimbo. Should be interesting season no doubt.

AKIRA · 06-24-2009, 08:51 AM

Be interesting if Kimbo wasnt on Rampages team.

AKIRA · 06-24-2009, 08:52 AM

Not to mention, I wouldnt be surprised if Kimbo causes some jealousy in the house among the other fighters.

TrojanMan60563 · 06-24-2009, 12:05 PM

Kimbo will be an interesting twist to the show. I don't know the history of the show to say without a doubt, but he is probably the first contender that has already fought in the UFC, or no? I think that is sorta like having a produced artist be accepted on American Idol. It just seems wack to me. I personally think they should give him 1 last fight in the UFC and then everyone can write him off as nothing but a youtube legend. He whips guys asses that are way out of shape or half his size. Its not really that impressive by any standards. He doesn't belong in the UFC, and he is not even close to that caliber of fighter.

CORUM · 06-24-2009, 12:18 PM

kimbo hasnt fought in the UFC

They did a season called "comebacks" that was all former UFC fighters.

there's been one of those too. that gay guy adam lambert is releasing the cd that was produced before he went on the show.

Great UFC card this weekend. The Alves/GSP fight is gonna be sick. Can't wait!

TrojanMan60563 · 07-09-2009, 12:15 AM

I'd love to give my opinions on this weekend, but I don't want to jinx anyone. Seems the guys I pick for the win seem to lose. But the fight card this weekend is pimp shit!

Doublebase · 07-12-2009, 08:41 PM

Great fights last night. I'm so happy Bisbing got KTFO. Henderson did a great job. Can't wait to see him rematch Anderson Silva. GSP vs Alves was a good fight I just wish Alves would have let loose a little more. He def showed how strong he is by being able to get out of those takedowns so easily. Brock won, go figure. I just don't know who he is going to fight next. Fedor? That fight will cost Dana a pretty penny. I'm sure he would make out on it though.

AKIRA · 07-12-2009, 08:50 PM

I actually thought Hendo would lose, but secretly hoped hed embarrass Bisping. It was wonderful that I got that wish.

I also wished for Mir to win, but I didnt get that miracle. It was such a obvious victory that i didnt take part of the uproar the crowd created.

GSP fought a smart game, as an intelligent fighter would. However, it was kind of boring.

TrojanMan60563 · 07-12-2009, 09:57 PM

Seeing Bisbing knocked out made me smile, and the final punch was totally sick!

GSP fought a great fight...snatched Thiago off his feet like it was practice. Two totally different leagues of fighters there.

Fedor would make ground beef out of Brock. I had no doubts Brock would come back for the win.

DesertFox · 07-18-2009, 09:16 PM

I hope Kimbo gets the shit kicked out of him.

AKIRA · 07-19-2009, 01:05 AM

i kind of hope he does too. There is something of a fighter spirit that he has but it is truly different from a ring.

Oh, I didnt ignore you. I just thought you said enough for all of us.

tallcall · 07-19-2009, 04:55 AM

I'm so happy Hendo shut Bisping up nicely!

Broc really needs to drop the WWE shit and take some responsibility. I like Mir much more (mostly because we are in the same discipline). I really want to see Fedor kill Broc, then I want to see Fedor fight Couture.

GSP was amazing as usual but I still LOVE Thiago Alves (One of my absolute favorites - right after Joe Lauzon

).
