Bluedeanie posted:So is anyone actually able to find the episode in Fight Pass? I thought it went up 10 minutes ago but I'm not seeing it under the TUF: Brazil header or anywhere else, and the banner ad with a link to the preview episode takes me to a dead page. Goes up in a little less than 3 hours. 12AM/9PM EDT/PDT.

The background of Shoe Face's nickname is that his chin is as big as a shoe. e: so far this is only the first half of the elimination fights. Are they posting the other half today or next week? Lloyd Boner fucked around with this message at 05:55 on Mar 10, 2014 |

xcore posted:Do they normally do the split premier episode or is this getting drawn out because it's going to be such a "blockbuster" season? The TV deal in Brazil probably didn't allow for a two hour premier episode so we get forced to watch the elimination fights over two weeks. Still watching so not sure if they pick the teams at the end but I'm gonna guess yes. e: They don't pick the teams but there's a pretty good reason why. Ending was pretty great and I now know why they have the lady coaches. Lloyd Boner fucked around with this message at 06:10 on Mar 17, 2014 |

Captain Log posted:I have to admit to skipping the fights in the second episode. Watching sad sack stories for people that get promptly beaten is just depressing. Did I miss much? You missed a pudgy middleweight medical student fight a Nova Uniao guy who trains with Barao and "Ze" Aldo. Medical student breaks a finger and Wandy calls him a pussy. Also there was a walk away head kick KO in one of the heavyweight fights that I thought was pretty loving cool.

Episode 4 is up but what the gently caress Chael is dubbed over this is bullshit e: it's only for one solo interview so that's not so bad Lloyd Boner fucked around with this message at 23:55 on Mar 31, 2014 |

Wanderlei was the one who escalated things from a shoving match to a stupid brawl when he swung at Chael. He was also the one who escalated things from verbal to physical when he shoved Chael in an earlier episode. The only thing Chael did wrong was talk poo poo, which is kinda what his job is.

Chael has two jobs as a prizefighter: to fight and to promote his fight. A lot of fighters don't do the latter part of their job but a lot of fighters also don't get paid very much. To be fair Wanderlei was absolutely doing his job too, he just pushed things too far when he made things physical.

Kanthulhu posted:His job is not to promote fights. That's what the UFC's marketing department does. His job is to fight. His job is absolutely to promote fights. Every fighter's job includes promoting their own fight. It doesn't have to be poo poo talking an entire country, but interviews, media appearances, it all counts as promoting your fight. Even if it's just telling your friends and family that you have a fight coming up on X day, that is promoting your fight. Hell you can promote your fights by just being an awesome fighter such that people want to see you fight more. Talking poo poo isn't something you MUST do to promote a fight, but it's a pretty solid method of doing so. TUF is a vehicle to promote fights. The finale fights between the competitors, and more importantly the fight between the coaches. Chael and Wanderlei were doing exactly what was expected of them to promote their fight. But there's a line, and that line is between verbal altercations and physical altercations, because the point is to use the former to make people pay money to see the latter. Wanderlei crossed that line first, hence Chael's not the one in the wrong here. Bundt Cake posted:I think people like Chael because they relate to being hated by everyone Actually Atom loathes Chael

Good to see team Sonnen sweep the final spots with the exception of the coolest fighter of the shoe.
