I enjoyed seeing a sneak into the UKTUF Team.. hopefulls.. to add Bisping looked Cool on camera.. and I was thinking??

UK vs US

Bisping is the Coach of TeamUK

is the Coach of TeamUS

Who do you guys think will be the other Coach?

I don’t see Silva being the coach at this time of TUF.. and I don’t see Bisping getting a title shot after the season.. who can it be??

dangerous dan henderson

i think it might be hendo as well. even if he loses to rich, as long as its a close fight, hendo is still a star. who wouldnt want to see bisping/hendo at 185?

So the winner gets a shot at the 185 title?? Henderson is a good pick.. Rich was there already in season 2..hummm

it’s gotta be one those two (hendo and rich).

I believe a rep from Spike said that the USA coach would be the winner of Franklin vs. Hendo match up

i hope its not franklin… does ANYONE want to see franklin/silva 3?

So Fanklin is going back down to 185? It Would have been nice to have Dana comment about the London card.

Very true John I just saw that myself.. the winner of Rich vs Dan will kost likely be the Coach of the USTeam.

I just wonder with currently 2 Champs.. being Brazilian.. and with a stream of great MMA guys coming from Brazil.. and with Brazil being the main reason.. MMA is here in the U.S today.. I’m surprised no events.. or team Brazil is not set up.. just a thought.

PhilQNY,

I have been wondering the exact same thing. When we see a Brazilian TUF team?

by Jeff on Oct 22, 2008 1:14 PM EDT up reply actions

you won’t, the market is too small in brazil. What I’ve been saying is the USA vs. the world. you’d get brazillians, japanese, UK. it would make a good show!

Kevin,

I like you idea much better than just Brazil. US v. World for TUF 10 or TUF 11. This would also open up the coaching for the World team. Nice idea.

I try Jeff. if you guys can get past my over the top opinions (once in a while) I actually have tons of good ideas and thoughts. But some people hang onto the crazy stuff and don’t read the serious stuff! whatever though!!

Just watched it (i know it’s been up all day), I tell you what impresses me most, If Dana White didn’t have rich friends and wasn’t the president/owner of the UFC, he’d be on here like us schmucks. He’s just a very passionate mma fan who has the luxury of calling the shot. John, I correct myself, I am envious of someone finally!

Nate Marquardt might be a good coach for the US team.

Its awsome when you see someone who has found thier calling in life and doing what they love to do and Dana is one of those guys.

I love these blogs

me too. i heard him say abdula mohammed’s name,(randy jr, ha ha) ive definetly heard of him.

by b.w. on Oct 21, 2008 3:40 PM EDT up reply actions

Agreed. I know these video blogs show Dana working hard, but I still think he got one of the coolest jobs. I could get used to that with or without a huge paycheck.

i had the pleasure of meeting him he is really down to earth and has time for fans

Must be very tough to weed through the top guys knowing u’ll leave some good ones behind.

umm did anyone else notice the name Wesley Murch being called out?? he was on the current season of the ultimate fighter (season 7) and had to quit in one of the first 2 episodes cus he fucked his leg up!! main reason i noticed was because, 1, he is from bristol, same as me, and 2, a good friend of mine has the same surname ( they aint related )and 3, they had the funny Bristolian accent subtitled, haha i could understand it tho lol :)

main reason i ask is would they really give the same dude 2 shots at it after he failed the first time, thought they might of gave another person a chance? or is it that there is really that much lack of uk fighters they had to give it to him again??

I don’t know.. but I do no Ross Pointon is amongst the UK guys trying out again.. and he is rocking a hair cut if the letters U F C.. on his head.

by PhilQNY on Oct 21, 2008 3:59 PM EDT up reply actions

Maybe Dana will keep some in mind for the next TUF.

by DSmith on Oct 21, 2008 3:52 PM EDT reply actions

That was way cool seeing what the try outs are like. I have always wondered how they were.

could okami be the other coach?

by the still operator on Oct 21, 2008 6:24 PM EDT reply actions

Its UK vs US, not Japan… so no he couldn’t

Change it to UK vs Canda and have Jason Macdonald coach, the Athlete can represent. Franklin is 205 now, and Hendo is fighting him at 205, and they both have already had a shot at 185. Makes no sense to me to have either one coach and try to ruin Bisping’s chances.
