Man, it sucked all season... until this last show. Great fight. I love Luke, the Killer Nerd, picked last and now he's in the finals. The show looks like it will finish strong.

Anyone who wrestled in high school should watch this show. It brings back good memories.

The fighting is usually ok. I'm not really interested in all their little hissy fits. Some fights have just downright sucked. Regular UFC/Pride fights are much better, imo.

Kick ass.
My whinging lefty peacenick friends don't understand why I watch this (being a whinging lefty peacenick myself).

Still a newbie when it comes to understanding what is allowed, however. It seems like this is in a fair amount of flux.

I used to wrestle. While watching the show, I keep thinking about how useless many wrestling moves would be. As it is, I don't understand why people don't get kneed in the face when they shoot for double leg takedowns.

Sweet link. I love any fight with Silva, that guy is a beast.

I agree that most fights this TUF season have sucked; tonight was the exception.

The rules depend on what organization is running it (Pride, K-1, UFC, etc).

Well, the rules in wrestling are different so that makes a big difference. But wrestling is definitely a dominant style in UFC. Randy Couture is a good example of what wrestling can do.

Sometimes this happens, (there's a Match where Cro-Cop fucks up a dude's face with a knee while the guy shot), but usually you try to set up the shoot with a punch or kick. But even if they do get a knee off, they're still probably going to go down, so it's better to sprawl and be on top of them, usually.

I have a goofy schedule so I haven't been able to catch many episodes. I do remember the finale for last season was a hell of a match and both guys wound up winning contracts (rightfully so, imo).

ya he is great...his last fight, i forget against who, was pretty sweet too. I do agree that the first season was better, Diego was a beast.
