8 Thoughts On The Ultimate Fighter – 06.04.2008

Columns

This week we have the final two quarter-final fights and some manufactured drama!

1) A couple of the guys said that the two guys went at it like they hated each other… but I didn’t see it that way. It seemed like Matt Brown didn’t want to kill is opponent like he did in the last fight. I think I said it last week: Matt just might be one of those guys who needs to find a reason to hate the guy he’s fighting. After the match Jeremy May said he wanted a re-match with Matt at the finale and the guys goof on him.

2) Little John McCarthy was talking about how much of a bitch Jeremy May was and we got our manufactured drama~! of the season. Jeremy calls Little John a “Jewish Bitch” which turned into a fight? I don’t know, whatever.

3) The first fight was Tim vs. Dan. Tim said Dan was the best looking guy this season and he hopes to break the hearts of 16-year-old girls everywhere. Bwahahaha.

4) Quick fight that saw Dan come out and tee-off and take quick control. Tim almost immediately reversed control on the ground, grabbed a leg, and submitted Dan. 90 second tapout and Dan complains that he didn’t do it good enough.

5) Cale and CB is up next. Last week they showed an instance where Cale called CB a “fag” or something like that. CB immediately decided that this was the guy he wanted in the next round and Dana gave it to him.

6) Hey it’s the annual “destroy the house” segment of The Ultimate Fighter.

7) Weird? I missed the first minute of the round because Spike went to commercial for “In Plain Sight.” Awesome. I pick up with 70 seconds gone in the first round. The next 70 seconds sucked as Cale went down on his hands and knees, covered up, and stopped fighting back.

8) I think Dana seeded this just about right. 1 – CB, 2 – Jesse, 3 – Tim, 4 – Amir. I think we’re looking at a Jesse/CB final.

Next week, the finals! I may watch that live.
