Why hate all TUF fighters?

tsteppe · 07-27-2006, 02:11 PM

Alright, please read all of my statement and give it a fair chance. Many people on this forum dis-like TUF noob fans. I can see how constantly being asked stupid questions like like Griffin at 205 or Fedor at 205 can be annoying. I remember I once started a thread comparing Chuck and Mirko to eachother and that the match up could be entertaining and a genius whitebelt came in and said that Mirko would win based solely off the fact that he is bigger than Chuck. Which is odd seeing Chuck is taller than Mirko and probably weighs more when he is not trying to make weight but anyway.......

Why hate all the fighters from TUF? I see why people dislike Rashad Evans or for that matter most of the fighters from season 2. TUF has not picked random people off the street. Most of the guys have had good records and against quality competitions. Forrest Griffin gave Tito a run for his money. Joe Stevenson is getting better. Micheal Bisping, Ed Hermon, and Kendall Grove seem like good young talent. Along with Kalib Starnes those three seem alright. Diego is coming up in the toughest division UFC has to offer.

I know why people hate TUF noobs but I don't know people hate fighters that have been of TUF. Not all of them suck.

Most of them are B-level at best IMO. And Chuck isn't taller than CC.

Because most get easy ass perfect style match ups and the retard noob tufers think that makes the TUF figthers contenders.

Example this real great post by a tufer, idiotic BS like this. The only one that actully has been tested is Joe, and his ass is 1-1. For some reason he never got easy ass style match ups or tufer vs tufer match ups.

Most of them are B-level at the moment but can grow. I thought Mirko was 6'2 and Chuck was 6'3?

True, that is a perfect example.

There is resentment of TUFers because many hardcore fans think fighters should have to earn their Pride/UFC stripes by coming up the ranks of smaller organizations.

most of the TUF fighters do suck. Most of the guys who didnt win the show dont deserve to be in the UFC, Von Flu, Christian and what not. Personally, i dont think Bonnar deserves either and Forrest is highly debatable. He gave a half ass Tito a run for his money. Ill agree that Bisping has alot of talent, and Sanchez is a beast. Some of them are good, but more than enough are getting an easy ride when there is much better competition in other organizations.
