1st AD posted:TUF China is being produced by the channel it broadcasts on, but based on the look and feel of the production this season of TUF Brazil looks like it was done in-house. Globo is fuckin' massive, when they actually make an effort they can do "good production values". I watched just a bit of season 1 and it was a lot lazier than this one in terms of production and editing. It helps that they're trying to "modernize" all of their shows, despite having soap operas with the same plot on primetime since 1980 or so. Anyway, enough of random Brazil tidbits. Chael being a better coach than Wandy comes to no surprise whatsoever. He also picked the best MW hands-down from what we've seen on the qualifiers. Also, terrible TUF fights, yay! Can never get enough of those.

I will always love Wandy's dumb rear end. But I think it's about time for a Sonnen avatar change. Were than any av sized moments of him and Serra together? Because that would really be The Best Thing.

Watching ep3 now... -  at Wandy graciously allowing these mens dreams to go forward because he's such a nice guy.- "Welcome to team no apology" - Aaaaaaaand a push. It begins. - Ring girls competition is a half decent idea. Way to go TUF Brazil. 1st AD posted:Also, are the octagon girl hopefuls also living in the house? Wow they managed to make this situation even worse than co-ed fighters. Awesome. Intel&Sebastian fucked around with this message at 03:48 on Mar 26, 2014 |

And cause half the contestants to get divorced.

The ring girl competition is horrible. Other than that, it followed the TUF Brazil script to the letter. Rabid, instant team loyalty; cringeworthy product placement; terrible fight; crying men.

Indeed, hard to see how *that's* the complaint, and to be honest an open vote is probably less sketchy than the casting couch, or however the current bunch were picked. The concept of them being sent into the house amongst 16, isolated, bored, horny fighters is more of a concern.

The blonde one is a retired basketball player and is 54 (pretty bangin' for a 54 year old). The other one is a volleyball coach and is 53. At first glance it didn't seem like they had any reason being there other than being stand-ins for the Brazilian woman audience that they're trying to capture, but it seems like they do a good job of being buffers for Wanderlei and Chael. Also, no new episode tonight; it's being delayed till tomorrow at 6pm ET for some reason.

They probably dub him for Brazilian broadcast and whoever edited the FightPass version forgot to fix it. Also, Chael teaching Hortencia to swing dance was  ...and is he NOT lying about Wandy showing up drunk? Holy poo poo lol. Chael should've chosen heavyweights first and picked Shoeface because gently caress

I like all of Wand's pointing and vigorous head nodding during his confessionals like he thinks he's pulling one over on Chael somehow. Dude thinks he's really clever.

Is anyone having problems watching this tonight? Episode doesn't show up on the Roku app at all, won't start up on the iOS app, and the stream keeps crapping out on my computer.

Just watched it online. Too lazy to recap this episode, but next weeks episode is "the fight" you see a bit more footage in the preview. Chael double legs Wanderlei flawlessly after ducking a lovely hook.

The best part was Wanderlei tore off Chael's jersey and thought it was some huge victory or something.

Whoever is translating this poo poo is p bad, there's a team Sonnen fighter who is clearly saying they sparred 15 rounds and the subs say 13. Also, Wanderlei showed up late and drunk lol to the fight announcement. Edit: lmao a pajama party with the octagon girls. Somebody is gonna end their marriage here. Edit 2: Gabi Garcia is loving huge and d'arced Wandy

Gabi Garcia looks like a loving cartoon. Wanderlei is a full blown 'tard. I need an AV of the moment Chael says, with his arms crossed during the Wandy showdown, "This is actually helping." Then again, I'm almost certain in the split second Chael is taking Wandy down you see/hear Chael say, "loving Wanderlei!" It sounds like a sighed expletive you let out when your car won't start or you drop something.

 I like how one of Chael's fighters rushes in immediately to break it up, meanwhile Andre Dida comes in fists flying. Also afterwards he brags about clocking Chael in the back of the head and ripping his jersey off If Wanderlei's hand really did get fractured in that slapfight,  Especially since he basically warns Chael not to get injured or break his hand before they fightedit: I guess this works in the USA now https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bo2_iY0_x3Y 1st AD fucked around with this message at 09:21 on Apr 14, 2014 |
