i agree that the antics are too much, they could almost give the show a little more seriousness and make it better

at least its something to watch thru the week you can argue

the only thing thats getting tired and stale are the retared pranks they play on each other.

Maybe they could do a grand prix show??

It also pissed me off when Mir's team (not Mir) disrespected Nog!

I know this may sound like a radical suggestion, but it may just work. Maybe...just maybe...don't watch it? I know, I know. That is an absurd idea for someone that doesn't like something, but it is worth a shot, right?

I'll tune in for TUF 9 just to see the Blokes verse the Frats, haha. I don't really care for the antics and the drama that goes with the show because I usually can tune that crap out and concentrate on which fighter has the best chance of ending up in the Finals.
Plus, you get to see a fight at the end of every episode. No Comaplaints here. Although I can agree the format is getting a little stale, but what doesn't after a while.

I'd say it is worse than stale, it is brutal. I'm not really a UFC supporter....but I'll admit this.. they ruined a good thing. As much as I hate to admit it, the TUF series did some remarkable things for mma in America... but they are totally ruining it. Sure, they are laughing all the way to the bank...but the fact that they are putting out season after season is a very good example of 'too much of a good thing'. They are ruining their own show...and they are willingly watering down their own organization for the sake of making money. They know that the more TUFFERS they have on the main cards of their PPV's means they'll have more TUF fans payign for the events...thus, more money. They obviously don't really care about the 'sport'. they care abotu making money and 'establishing their brand'.

WAR TRAINING. I feel deprived and pissed that we didn't get to see more of Anderson Silva's training. All I saw was Bader punch him in the face while sparring and he seemed like he could care less.

it would be much more interresting.. they should have nutrition people, wheightcutting people, cardio experts, strength experts and so on..

educate the fans about what goes on in the training months up to fight etc.

im so sick of tuff and all the drinking, teenageboys acting up and all that..

and 90% of the fights are fucking embarrasing.. i tryed showing my friend a show and he was really disapointet in mma. i pursuaded him to se 92 ultimate and that was a different story ofcourse
