Mob posted:Faber shouldn't try and do verbal comebacks, ever. He's worse than Michael Scott. I like the fact that he doesn't always come out on the winning side of the verbal thrashing especially when Conor says things like Urijah looks like a 50 year old retired skater. This whole season has been pretty great. The only season I didn't like was the "live" season they did (was that Uriah vs Dominic?) because the format just didn't play into the fun editing that accompanies a normal season. I don't understand the people saying Conor does no coaching, because in the first 3 episodes he is always rolling with the guys and doing slow motion fighting. It owns. Conor is hilarious so far and Urijah is as well.

He expended too much energy and got tired

Some people respond differently to different types of motivation, there is no one size fits all approach to management. See how Greg Jackson calms GSP down in the corner and then downplays any injuries and goes through very specific goals for the next round, meanwhile he's all GO GIT SOME MISTER DONALD SER RO NAY

Those guard pulls to sweeps that Hall was hitting in practice were nuts - one of my buddies does poo poo like that and I still get swept all the loving time. I'm bad at the grapple.

My impression of Conor as a coach went way up this episode. Helps that they spent a lot of the time focusing on how he was training his guys. That dude's back hair was nasty. He looked like a sweaty swamp rear end.

Worst case this makes it harder for them to shake you off, best case you can pull forward enough to destabilize the tripod and break them down. I believe you can see Gallicchio trying this once but Marcin was able to step out of it. Iirc you can see BJ doing this a bunch vs Gomi in their fight.

For anyone curious, the TUF production team is obviously muting the mics of the cornermen for Team Europe, while playing the audio from Conor's mic over the action. So in reality he may not be as loud as we are hearing on the show. Hilariously, the reason I can tell this is happening is because I utilize the corner mic feature on UFC.tv during fights where Matt Serra is cornering, so I've actually learned to discern between hearing a cornerman's mic and hearing their screaming being picked up by the mics floating above the octagon. EDIT: If you listen, you can still hear the Team Europe corner being picked up by the octagon mics.

Was up in NY for the No Gi Pans and heard a rumor from multiple sources: Ryan Hall makes it to the finals. Not sure if anyone has heard the same, or something different.

I would not be surprised at all if Ryan Hall takes the whole thing. His jiu jitsu is just miles above anyone's and that 50-50 guard just seems to confuse everyone on the show.
