How well would Anthony Johnson have done if he got accepted on TUF 6?

As I'm sure some of you know, Johnson auditioned for The Ultimate Fighter 6, even after his Reiner fight, and got denied. From what I understand, the UFC didn't wanna waste him on a TUF season and put him back in the UFC right away, as he took a one-weeks notice fight against Clementi while TUF was still filming.

My question is, how well would he have done on the show?

He sparked Speer, but how do you think he would have done against the likes of George Sotiropolous, Matt Arroyo, and Mac Danzig? Do you think he would've made it to the finals?

I've seen both his KO wins but not his loss to clementi so im not sure what his weaknesses are.

If he would've fought Jared or Dorian there would've been some "explosive and athletic" on "explosive and athletic" crime.

I don't think anyone in that cast, and anthony Johnson included, could have beat Danzig. He is going to be fun to watch at 155

Mac Danzig has way too much experience but Anthony would have knocked out a lot of those guys. But you cant count Johnson out because anything can happen with an explosive striker...

He's anthonys photo gallery section that i found

Hard to say really. Mac is a bad ass dude so Im not going to jump the gun and say that he would have won.
