got something 2 say bout TUF 12, say it HERE

[redsamurai]

the show needs an overhaul. The whole opposing coaches thing is old. Seems like the show is more about the drama anymore than the fighting. I'd rather the show start focusing more on getting a core group of guys ready for the big league. They need start flying these guys around the country to different schools and undergoing different training regiments. I think it would be pretty cool for some of these american guys to all of a sudden get dropped into a brazilian nut house like chutebox or topteam and have to fight some up and comers down there. Just something different. I"m over the whole secluding 15 doods in a house for 3 months with no TV or ipods or newspaper..nothin...and watchin who snaps first. Even in the most hardcore MMA training camps you still get to have your own space without having 14 other dudes up your ass 24/7. We'd see "alot" better fights if they stopped doing that shit. I've heard some of the past dudes are now admitting that the production crews encouraged being loud and obnoxious the night before the fights so as to fuck with the guys who were going to fight the next day. How is that good for anyone? It's not even good for us because we get deprived of better quality fights.

The opposing coach thing would be old IF they didn't fight at the end of the show! I think it's great it build up tension between the coaches. Even if the coaches don't hate each other at the beginning of the season, they will by the end of the show. Watching your fighters get woopd by the other team makes it seem personal. The drama is what makes the show great and builds up intensity for fights. I'm not gonna say that fights are usually better between two guys that hate each other versus two guys that don't, but I will say that I anticipate a fight much more if two guys hate each other.

I agree that they should get these guys out more and fly them to new areas to train but if you know anything about the show, it has to be prerecorded so getting these guys out in public could jeopardize the ambiguity of the show. Bringing TUF to another country would be great though!

Being locked in a house with any food you want, a pool/hot tub, and a plethora of games surrounding you, things could be worse.. Most of these guys have never been exposed to the kind of training they receive from the TUF coaches, what do you mean they are not able to perform at their best? These guys improve tremendously on the show and it's very apparent from watching previous seasons and watching them grow as the season continues.

I used to catch it on mmacore but I just tried that resource and the video was removed.

I liked the season where they did Brits vs. US - they really need to do Brazil/South America vs. someone else and watch the carnage happen.

Or even do a tournament, like the old days. Bring in 6 Brits, 6 Americans, 6 Brazilians and 6 Eastern Europeans and set them all up together to fight. Top two picks from each region get a bye into the house, the last four fight to see who makes up the final two from each region. Still do elimination, but then have the final four be the last man standing from each with random draw deciding matchup for semis.

most brazilian fighters dont do well at first in american style mma.
