I think Season 7 fighters has the most potential since season 2.

The best thing they ever did in TUF was make it so that you had to fight to get on the show. For season 6, the only fighters I feel that could potentially make it in the top 15 of a weight class is Mac Danzig, Tommy Speer, and George Sat. I see CB, Jesse, Tim, Amir, Gerald, Dante, Matthew, Matt Brown, Dan Cramer, and honestly even Nick Klein as having more potential than everyone else in the entire Season 6 cast except the best 3. Season 5 has a lot of talent too. Nate Diaz is a good winner but I feel Manny is better and will win a rematch, also Matt Wiman, Gray Maynard, Joe Lauzon, and to a certain extent, Rob, Corey, and Cole. The last 3, I haven't been super impressed with, but they have potential. The main thing that separated season 7 from 5 and 6 is the "lower end" of the season 7 cast was significantly higher calibur than season 5 and 6 "lower end" cast. Fighting to get on the show achieved and there definitely would've been a lot less talent getting on the show if that wasn't the case.

Yes that may be the best idea so far on the show ,also think Manny could win a rematch provided he can stay injury free.

I see Ben Saunders and Matt Arroyo from Season 6 having just as much potentional as a Dan Kramer or a Matt Riddle.

Matt Brown proved that Arroyo is overrated. Cramer and Riddle have the sky's limit with their striking ability and great and improving ground game.

We'll see about Ben Saunders...his problem may be dealing with wrestlers. That's how he lost to Speer and Barrerra took him down at will (albeit just laying there).

Arroyo had an injury in the Matt Brown fight.

Take your point about Saunders, but he is hella fun to watch.

Just like his rib injury to Danzig? O wait...

Just yanking yer chain.

I liked him but I don't think he was that good injury or not. He didn't attempt to control's Brown posture at all..

really i thought it was poor and danzig would have beaten all of them to a pulp

I also think Luke Zachrich has a bright future ahead of him. If he hadn't gassed in that first round he would have finished Creamer with the rear naked choke. It's just a shame that Dana didn't give Harris and Zachrich another chance. The fight between Creamer and Zachrich could have gone either way and I for one would love to see a rematch.

I thought (and still think) that season 7 had the absolute worst talent pool in TUF history by a landslide.

Season 8's talent looks really really good though.

Its cool, I've come to expect that opinion because people say that every season. Season 2, people were talking about how its so much worse than season 1. Season 3, people said the talent is getting worse. Season 4, people were calling them has beens. Season 5 people still said the talent was worse ever. Season 6 big time people said the talent is the worst ever. Now, you say the same thing people say every single season. So, its cool, people always say the current season is the worst season ever so I've come to expect that type of opinion.
