schultz worse off for his TUF performance?

ussoc21 · 05-16-2008, 09:40 AM

the guy is 7-1-1 professionally(according to spike) and lost twice to 0-0 fighters, gassing early and horribly in each. i hear he's a great guy and was an ideal teammate, but do you think he has much of a shot at the ufc or beyond after this?

its really up to him. TUF exposure good or bad is still going to help get his name and face out there. If he improves and puts together a nice win streak its still possible.

I don't know..I will never say never. A prime example is Ross Pointon, he seems to really be putting together a nice career and seems to be getting better with each fight post-TUF.

LOL he will never have a shot in the UFC. But he has name recognition now so i'm sure he'll do ok in the small shows.

More importantly, even if he never appears in the UFC, just the fact that he appeared on TUF will double or triple the purses he gets at local & regional shows. Guys like Ross Pointon, Lodune Sincaid, Mike Whitehead, & Brad Imes are MUCH better off for having appeared on TUF, even if their UFC careers didn't work out the way they would have liked.

I guess if losing 2/3rds of your fights is "getting better".

I d not think so. Watch next weeks episode. he said he apologized to Forrest and gave the respect that was due.

I meant more so recently...he seems to have found his form and looks to be in good shape.

Ross has got to get it jitz skills in check, he wasd subbed 6 of his 10 losses. He's a nother rockhead who thinks he's going to knock everyone's head off, but unfourtantly he's not Lidell and cant do it with enough consistancy that it could be considered a strategy, but rather just indication of his stubbornness
