wtf is wrong with these heavyweights on TUF?

I hope big baby wins. I like that dude.

I think he will. He is Rampage's last hope.

Wasn't the other guy the last pick for Rashad? It looks like a strategic play on Rashad's part to hold off big baby till the end. This gives a good streak and knocks Rampage's ego.

I think the other problem with the heavyweights is the bodyfat. I think this deters many viewers who are used to the leaner guys. Not that they watch them for their bodies, but some of these guys don't even look like athletes.
I believe the heavyweights range from 206 to 265. This is a much wider range than the 20lbs for all other weight classes.

I was hoping there would be some heavy hitters in the heavyweights, but they can't even give us that!!

The only guy that's kind of impressed me this season was actually Mitrione. For 45 seconds the dude showed some pretty good stuff and he's probably the hardest hitter in the house, maybe.....we'll see after marcus fights. But Mitrione can throw sharp bombs until his gas runs out. Last week's fight was his if his wind was up to shape. He is a prick though, I think the producers of the show put some of these gun on to some of the shit they pull. I just don't understand how a dude like mitrione would pull these seriously bitch ass moves like he has. Passing notes to the other team? wtf?

I have no other explanation than they weren't conditioned. I'm a fat ass at 265 and I can still run a jump rope....I need to get my fat ass back to 240 and I'm doing it with HIT rope jumping. I'm embarrassed based on my current conditioning based on my conditioning in high school when I wrestled 189.

What's HIT jumproping?

He is emotionally unstable.
It was a 10 minute fight with a break in between, he gassed out at 3 mins in the first round and didn't recover.
This just shows that he didn't pace himself and doesn't know his body well enough.

He did try, i'll give him that, but he doesn't deserve to fight in the UFC. He is a streetfighter (if anything).

This has been a very disappointing season so far.

Jump rope between sets is an intense version....your two minutes between sets consists of jumping rope. The next best version is doing intervals with the rope after the workout. Jump rope at high intensity for a specified period of time and then you go back to it....best conditioning I did as a high school wrestler was doing a circuit of jumping rope, push ups and sit ups with mountain climbers thrown in.
