yeah the format is getting stale. they need to change it up

id like to see something like


1. have 2 teams consisting of 16 fighters with 4 in each weightclass

LWH, MW, WW, LHW
2. have 2 different houses with coaches living in the house with the guys.

3. each house will have 4 man tourny to determine that house's finalist for each weighed class

4. and also have the coaches fight on the TUF finale.

so thered be 5 finale fights aired. lets face it the losers get contrats anyway. might as well have four winners.

5. since the coaches will live with the fighter. we will see much more training and learn more about the fighters and the real fight game.

also id like a more international flavor. hell as a MMA fan i can read subtitles. lets get a brazilian or Japanese team and let them speak there own language.

or hell does Machida speak Japanese also? he could coach a Brazilian/Japanese team. fuck id watch that

Do an all brazillian TUF. Wanderlei Silva and Anderson Silva can be coaches. At the end they can duke it out for the middleweight crown.
thank you i've been reading this whole thread looking for a dumb comment like yours!

are you willing to place a wager on the usa dominating?
i watched the uk try-outs and there was a a lot of big names on the europe scene that turned out, this compared to the standard of what has been on past tuf shows im confident in saying that the uk will produce both the winners of tuf 9.

p.s. its pretty obvious jimmy wallhead will win the whole thing

I'm in total agreement, I can't say I'm a big fan of the show but I do watch when I can and follow the marathons when Spike air them.
I think an International format would be great the collage frat house theme is really getting dry.

It has been stale for a while now but it is MMA so I will watch it regardless.
