how do they decide who replaces an injured fighter?

As the title says. I'm tired of Kimbo automatically assuming it'll be him (although I'm sure it will be). What's the process? Does Dana decide? Do all the losers fight for it? Is it a lottery? ...?

I don't see the problem. As you say, Kimbo "assumes" it's him bc it obviously is. There is no doubt in anyone's mind that he is first pick. To answer your question, the viewers decide. The viewers want to see a bearded hobo-esque brawler with no groundgame, no chin, no cardio, and mediocre standup fight so that's who the ufc and tuf will throw in.

Totally unrelated but anyone else think that huge ass spider that was scaring Marcus might have came out of Kimbo's beard?

We know it's not Kimbo. Kimbo is fighting Alexander at the finale.

Are you stupid? Why would Dana roll the dice on Kimbo losing on the show again? Dana is an asshole but he's also a slick businessman.

It automatically goes to whoever will draw better ratings. Kimbo wins!

Maybe because like 6.5 million people watched his first TUF fight and he's got a better shot of beating those guys then almost anyone in the UFC. Even if he fought Roy again, Roy would do the same boring sh*t. they should call his win and all like it a technicality
