"Erase me screaming. ... What my plan was if I screamed loud enough, it would.....
"Erase me screaming. ... What my plan was if I screamed loud enough, it would deafen the creature and allow someone else to sneak up on it." (Marcus Jones)
I laughed and then laughed some more when he pulled off that armbar...the most entertaining episode yet this season IMO....

Marcus is awesome. Bad dude, way better fighter that I would have expected (only based on one fight I know...but still). At the same time humble, respectful, able to laugh at himself. Hope he does well.

Agreed, I thought cardio and generally being green were going to be a factor with Marcus, now the cardio issue could still be valid, that fight was so quick, we didn't get to see his longevity...

awesome fighter awesome guy. so well mannered and nice. by far my favorite on the house. seems to have good jitz, heavy handed so even if he's not as technical he has the long reach and crazy power. honestly one of the best if not the best we have seen yet this season.

I'm still worried about him having bad cardio. Wasn't he the one in the very first few eps that almost had a heart attack during one of the cardio exercises? lol

Yeah, early on I was worried, too. I think that as long as he gets it quickly to the ground and utilizes his excellent submission game, he should be able to finish most of his fights pretty quickly. Guess we'll see how his cardio looks when he fights his next opponent in the finals! I would really like to see him win the show, though. He is by far my favorite person and fighter this season. Just a very unique and huge and talented individual.

Yea, that was a good laugh, those guys are barefoot a little too often to not be concerned about a bite.

Agreed, Rampage made me laugh a few times in this episode. I cracked up when he was talking about screaming like a girl after big baby got his win.I thought it was funny when he apologized to the door also. Big baby was hilarious with the spider/scorpion/leviathan, and his armbar clinched wednesdays episode as the best TUF episode ever.

Exactly.
Despite taking some things a bit too seriously ( sucks balls), he doesn't seem to take HIMSELF too seriously, which is a quality that a lot of fighters don't possess.
IMO, there are only two kinds of people in the world: the kind you'd let babysit your kids and the kind you wouldn't. He's the kind I would.
