its a shame that gurgel is representing brazilians on TUF---there are so many better brazilian fighters that deserve to be in the ufc other than gurgel

I think AS should coach in a season. Subtitles shouldn't be an issue due to them already doing them for Matt Hammill.

Oh, and I remember reading somewhere that UFC was working on a South American version of TUF.

Most definitely, I would imagine that they could get much better talent for their show if they went outside the country.
Seriously, I bet there would be more than pro-fight virgins or 5-6 records if they brought in fighters from Brazil or other countries.
