My rant about Rashad (LONG READ)

DragonFly Jones · 11-05-2009, 02:13 PM

Let me start by saying I use to like Rashad. Now I cant stand him and after each episode I dislike him even more. If the editors where trying to make me like Rashad and hate Rampage they failed miserably. Rampage is right. Rashad is so fake and full of himself it makes me sick. This is not the Rashad I'm use to. Like Rampage said, Rashad thinks the show is about him and his coaching ability. The show is about one fighter winning a contract. ONE! Not who is the best coach or who has the best team record. If Jones wins it all then all this great coach crap will be exposed for what it is. Hype.

He says one rediculous comment after another trying to insult Rampage and make himself look so good and it trips me out how these nutthuggers are eating it up. He keeps saying Rampage quit on his team. How? Rampage isnt the one who didnt follow the gameplans. Rampage isnt the one who tapped out. This "quitting on his team" crap is annoying and the fact that he's trying to force everyone to believe it by repeating it EVERY episode shows it isnt true. You dont have to force the truth. The editors may have fooled you guys but I see right thru it. Rashad is faker than monopoly money and his coaching ability is extremely overated.

What has he done to become this great coach? Damn near all of his fighters have ignored his gameplans so they basically won on their own just like Rampages fighters lost on their own yet Rashad gets credit as if his coaching is what won the fights. He DID give them good advice and gameplans but so did Rampage. The fighters just didnt follow it. You guys are clearly basing Rampages coaching soley on the fact that he didnt console his fighters after the fight and ignoring his good advice and gameplans before the fights.

EDIT: I was wrong about the gameplan for Wessel being to take Jones down. It was to stay away and avoid the ground but like Rampages fighters he didnt stick to the gameplan and paid for. Regardless, the 7-1 record is not bcuz Rashad is a better coach. Its due to Rashad's fighters simply taking advantage of their opponents mistakes.

Last night Rashad asked Rampages team if they wanted to come train with his team then gets all pissed when they denied him. Wtf would they want to help team Rashad when team Rampage is still in it? Its like saying fuck Marcus. He's not going to win. Come help my team instead. Yeah that sounds like he cares about Jones and wants to make him better. He's clearly trying to turn Rampages team against him and the fact that it isnt working is really getting to him. He tried to make them feel like they were making the mistake by saying Rampage quit on them (props to Jones for immediately walking out on that bullshit). I love how Jones sees thru Rashad's act and ignores him especially when Dana asked Jones who he wanted to fight.

Rashad then has the nerve to say Rampage doesnt care and wont help them get better. Really? He seems to care to me. True, Rampage isnt a good enuf coach to make them better by leaps and bounds (neither is Rashad) but he has tons of experience and thats enuf to make them better than what they are now which is MAKING THEM BETTER. Regardless, how will Rashad make them better? His focus will be on his fighters since they are still in it not Rampages fighters. He only asked them to come train just to be sparring dummies anyway so when was he going to make them better? I'm so glad they all dis'd him and the fact Rashad got upset just proves Rampage right. Rashad is full of himself.

His focus isnt even on the show. Its being a better coach then Rampage. Its obvious that he doesnt like that Jones is still in it and didnt like that he couldnt pick the matchup to get rid of him. This is about the fighters and what matchup THEY want which would give them the best chance at winning. Wtf is Rashad to deny that from Jones? This dude has lost his mind and let this show go to his head. I really hope Rampage comes back and fights him. Theres no doubt in my mind that he would beat the shit out of Rashad. Rampage is better in every aspect of the game. Striking, wrestling, chin, resume, etc. so I dont see why ppl think Rampage is scared of Rashad. WAR RAMPAGE!!!

Stopped reading after that, I'm sure it just gets more dumb.

The show is partially about them, them coaching fighters, and is partially a competition between them. Why else would they have fighters coming in and coaching these guys, rather than getting real and qualified coaches to come in? Both guys are trying to one-up the other (like in EVERY OTHER season so far), so of course they're going to rub their records in each others faces. Shit, I think the first season is the only one where the coaches didn't do that. And Jones winning it all won't prove anything. Rashad hasn't even proven that he is a great coach, but he has shown that he has the tools to be one someday.

Cry me a river nuthugger.
I saw you in another thread swinging from Rampage nuts as well.
Rampage has exposed himself as not only a lousy coach, but as a really bad loser, and a raging asshole.

A long rant against Rashad wont fix that.

Its called the Ultimate Fighter. Not the Ultimate Fighter & Coach. 1 fighter will get a contract. The coaches get nothing therefore who's the better coach is irrelevant. The only reason they're there is to help the fighters with their experience and hype a future fight at the same time. Like I said, if Jones wins it all then what good was it to be 7-1? Regardless how you look at it this show has turned into who is the better coach when the focus is suppose to be on the fighters.

Find this to be a good read.

Rashad is full of himself and cocky, but rampage is disrespectful

The coaches is supposed to help them on their way. And Rampage did a lousy job.
And made himself look stupid in the attempt.
Yeah, its not a coaches contest, but that doesnt change the fact that hes a lousy coach.
Seems like you just want to make the 7-1 argument invalid. OK, hes still a lousy coach. Theres no getting around that. Its not just because of the 7-1 record, but leaving fighters behind in the cage ect.

disagree, the show has always been just as much abotu the coaches as the fighters.

Whats a real qualified coach?????? what do you go to some kind of college ang get a certifecate? I think the first season is the only one where the coaches did'nt hate each other. Rashad is a clown the more he talks the less i like him!!!!!!
If jones wins it may not proove anything but it will sure as hell shut rashads big ass mouth or maybe rampages "sucker" will lmao now that was some funny shit

Wow. What a load of B.S., threadstarter. The inaccuracies/distortions in your thread are almost too many to count.
Rashad has done what any reasonable person would do, try to be good at what they're doing. It is only because Rampage has chosen to do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING as a coach that there is "hype" regarding the comparison.
Rampage has been a disgrace this season. And he certainly lost a fan in me. If his obviously bullying of "titties" wasn't enough, he USES one of "his" fighters to settle a personal score with "titties". He has been nothing but lazy, disrespectful, self-centered and arrogant.
"You feeling froggy?! Jump!" Is this third grade?
