Instant Tito Fan... Ken is an Idiot

This is what makes TUF great... I love watching the personalities out of the ring. Tito seems to be genuinely likeable.

The Hawaiian guy is hilarious.

You have to cheer for the deaf kid.

I'd hate to be on Ken's team... what a freaking fossil. No BJJ?

Just my thoughts.

I would have to say that I have to agree with you on this one. Ken is appearing to be more of a tool than I gave him credit for. Tito does appear genuine, unless he is a used car salesman at heart.

I feel sorry for Ken and his fighters.

I'm going with a conspiracy theory on the team picks, though. The short-fused redhead got talked up but was picked near last, among other bits that seemed suspect. I figure the Administration orchestrated it, hedging their bets by having Ken claim he was thinking "match ups." I'm not willing to give Ken that much credit after his dinosaur display of fighting philosophy and basic lack of charisma. Who would've thought he was such a dud?

No kidding

Before I watched, I wouldve wanted to be on Kens team....

But when you see Tito saying, How can I expect my guys to give blood sweat and tears and Im not in there doin it with them, I thought that was cool.. How he rolled with his guys. And how he talked to Stine before he fought, that was real good.

But with Ken, he sits back, and he even said so. And I love how they show Ken figuring out with his team what their chant should be, made him look stupid.

Considering after the first show Ken's team is ahead, maybe he's onto something and people judging him ahead of time might not be.

Yeah, hes not gonna train in something hes not. Tito knows even less bjj than ken.

I think Ken is just doing things by the same standards as he did for the Lion's Den. He works the guys based on his strengths.

The one thing that does bother me is the fact that he brought in a bodybuilder. I actually think Guy Mezger would have been a great choice as an assistant coach.
