"It’s been interesting. I’m actually impressed and happy with how competitive they both are and how into it they both are. One of the cool things that happens every season is, guys come on and they totally buy into it and get into it, and end up creating relationships for a lifetime. Brock’s been just like that. In the whole history of the show, I think we’ve only ever had Ken Shamrock come on and not give a sh*t. I think he’s the only coach that ever came on and didn’t care. Brock’s been good so far."
Once the shock wore off after the announcement of Brock Lesnar as a coach on the upcoming season 13 of The Ultimate Fighter (TUF), talk turned to the big man's ability to actually do what was being asked of him. After all, the former heavyweight champion is better known for deer hunting than he is for people pleasing. However, if we're to believe UFC head honcho Dana White (cough), the pasty recluse has actually taken quite well to his team of TUF guys. I guess the skepticism that met Lesnar's comments that he "just wants these guys to win and do well" were unfounded. Are you more or less interested in this season after hearing "DW" praise his heavyweight stars?

Rampage didn't seem to give a shit either but since he's being set up for the next LHW title shot Dana's not going to admit that
Instead he takes a cheap shot at a guy that Zuffa have already sued and whose reputation and career is in tatters. Typical Dana.

excellent point
rampage was there for the cameras, he didn’t give a fuck about the fighters other than taking a piss on them. I do like rampage, though
Rampage at least gave a shit about Kimbo. That counts.
Our lives change like the weather, but a legend never dies.
The cameras didn't show everything either
Rampage was trying to put on a show for the cameras and came out an ass for it, but one thing TUF doesn’t show enough of is the actual training and teaching the coaches actually give. You could tell Page cared though simply by his desire to win.

I think Page cared about himself, not the fighters.

I hope Brock comes back with a vengeance or some shit...
I would like it if he started just destroying dudes. He has the raw talent but now we get to see if his heart is there or not….

He definitely has talent.
But he is wat 33 34 now? Prior to his UFC career the last time he was in a competitive legit sport was 10 yrs ago.
Sorry to disappoint but we’re not gonna see some magical reinvention of Lesnar.

He won't be the best again
But he can remain a top 5 or 10er for a while. Nothing wrong with that.
dia mette!!! Shut up.
No shame in being a gatekeeper.

Hemay be reaching his mid 30's but he only has 7 fights under his belt and can improve with so little experience
What you stated menime makes no sense?
Sorry to disappoint but we’re not gonna see some magical reinvention of Lesnar.
he can only get better with experience and is far from gatekeeper myth he is a top tier HW with little experience!!
