Angela Magana has jumped up in my estimation. Telling Heather to shut up is something I gather the whole cast has been wanting to do.

Randa Markos posted:I didn’t get to know her that much at the time, but she just seemed like she’s very different. She tried to get info out of you that didn’t even matter. Asked you questions that didn’t really make that much sense. I know she was trying to get information out of everyone … to feel a person out, or something like that. Randa on Heather Clark from an interview here. Heather just sounds like weird, annoying person to be around.

Am I the only one who's kind of annoyed by Magana? The way she talks and her mannerisms give me serious serial-killer vibes. Which I guess isn't a terrible thing in a fighter. The whole "fingers in my ears, la-la-la-I-can't-hear-you" thing was pretty odd, too, and even Felice seemed a bit weirded out by her outburst. Not that Heather doesn't also sound annoying, mind you.

I'm torn on Heather. She definitely has some douchey mannerisms, but on the other hand it also seems like at times she was just trying to make smalltalk and everyone was like "omg she's trying to profile us for secret strategies" or something. I think the biggest mark against her is the way she keeps instigating rough sparring, hurting herself, and then trying to blame it all on her partner.

I thought the mannerisms thing were extremely apparent in the first episode but I've come to be okay with her since then. I think she's just odd. The fingers in the ears thing was dumb but Heather loving sucks and she doesn't seem to respond to anything adult so gently caress it.

Bec Rawling's episode 4 blog post Business as usual behind the scenes stuff if you're into that, mostly interesting for the Heather hate seething through: Bec Rawling posted:"we thought they'd try to capitalize on Heather's face being split open and pick her to fight next but Felice told me she didn't wanna give Heather an excuse for the rear end whooping she was about to give her" Jesus christ

Started making my way through seasons of The Ultimate Fighter in my seemingly never ending quest to learn more about MMA and see the origins of many of the fighters that have gone on to be champions etc - season 1 obviously was really good and the fight between Griffin and Bonner was amazing (and apparently one of the most important fights of all time) but I'm a few episodes into season two now and holy poo poo are the fighters boring for the most part and most of them are just outright quitting. Should I go ahead and skip the rest of season 2? If so - are there any seasons in particular I should be sure to check out? Hearing a few favorite season recommendations would probably help a lot and I don't mind skipping around.

Seasons 5, 7, 10, 14, and 17. 5 has entertaining meltdowns and good fighters, 7 has Matt Brown and JT Money, 10 has hilarious HW fights and Rashad vs. Rampage, 14 has good tiny fighters, and 17 has Chael Sonnen and Uriah Hall's scowl.

Mr. Carlisle posted:I'll ditch 2 and start with 5 then, thanks! Whatever you do, don't skip season 4. It had reasonably good fights because it was a "comeback" season where the contestants had already fought in the UFC, and it also had Shonie Carter and, most importantly, Matt Serra.

This is by far the best part of Season 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CK7xdXFs4fM Anyways I'll throw up Season 8 (Mir/Nogueira) and 12 (GSP/Kos) as being two pretty good seasons as well.

It's not showboating because he's taking his mind off the physical activity he's doing. Matt Hughes has cognitive dissonance.

Those are excellent moments, and I might say that his first coaching stint was the best part of BJ's career, but I stand by his mocking Andy Wang's tears as his finest hour.

If you're pointing out the best parts of TUF and you're not referring to Chael giving motivational speeches to his guys and calling Anderson Silva "that puke" you're wrong.

Also "My name is Jose Aguilar, my friends call me Freddy. To be honest, dude, I belong with Napoleon, dog, Alexander, dude, Hitler, that's who I belong with." is one of the greatest dumb things said on TUF.

Was it season 2 where two guys fought in the actual house and it ended up with one guy armbaring the other who promptly dropped his head onto the concrete, splitting him open and cueing many minutes of "YOU CAN'T SLAM PEOPLE ON CONCRETE"?

The infamous Noah "I am a former Marine Sniper" Thomas and Marlon "Let me tell you about that time I fought the entire state of Califorina and won" Sims fight. Reffed by ad hoc third man in the Episode literally entiled Ep. 508 Not on the Concrete, if you have FightPass.

Hey now, Wayne Weems actually fought and, after losing to the nicest guy ever on TUF via TKO, closed his career out with six stoppages. Yes, Johnny Wisdom and Trip loving Shatfires Meanwhile, there exists this man:  I mean, he may, on paper, have been dethroned by yoga-instructor guy from TUF China, but in my heart, he'll always have a place as the worst.

Find the semi-final between Cummo and Morgan before you ditch Season 2 entirely. It's a very entertaining fight. Also, the finale had some good fights on it, especially the Diaz vs. Sanchez main. Best season of the show is a toss-up between 4 and 5, so watch them both. Then you have a huge drop off in quality of the fighters in season 6, where the ultimately mediocre Mac Danzig (fighting a weight class up even) was the best fighter by a country mile.

TUF Live has probably had the best talent pool of any recent seasons (Jury, Chiesa, Iaquinta, Cruickshank), but it was boring and really there's no point in watching anything but the fights.

I dunno, season 14 had a pretty stellar cast. Diego Brandao, TJ Dillashaw, John Dodson, and Dennis Bermudez all range from pretty good to amazing, and apparently Akira Corassani is now well-liked by some or something.

This is a blatant misconception, but I have a perfectly viable explanation for it: In his most recent loss, he got clocked so hard he turned into a humble human being for five minutes and seemed likeable, even raising the arm of his opponent in defeat.

Also: I can't remember where I found the video, but that reminds of a double Diaz interview I saw once where they asked if they would ever fight each other and they both just looked at the reporter like he killed their mom and said something like "Why the gently caress would you even ask that, man? That's the stupidest question I've ever heard."
