it's all speculation.

It could definitely be Nover.

There is absolutely no chance of Mark Hughes on this cast.

Thanks for all the time and effort TS!

Are we even sure Duarte made it into the house? If you look at his myspace he was pretty actively communicating with friends on it all through the month of June which is when the show was filmed. He wouldnt have had access to myspace in June if he made it on the show.

[ACSUC99]

Well if Joe Duarte was on the show...he got injured.

From his myspace:

Hey...so u missed out on a good weekend!!!!! all girls...it was a good time..boo on you for being injured and resting lol

There were several other comments on there during the last week of May that indicated Duarte hurt himself and needed to heal. Cast left for Vegas at the end May. You can clearly see he was communicating with friends all through June on his myspace. They returned home from Vegas very end of June.

So...there goes that theory that Duarte is the next Silva. It doesnt appear he was out in Vegas very long at all.

good assesment. we'll see him in the finale i'm sure. too bad it's not for the lw tuf8 crown.

ACSUC99 good job on finding John Polakowski! He appears to be a LW contender on the show. He's been added.

[Richnuttz]

I updated a lot. Videos and added info on some fighters.

[ACSUC99]

After seeing that video of Phillipe Nover, I have to guess thats the 24 year old Dana was creaming his pants about.

[ACSUC99]

Looking at their myspaces you can tell who made it on and was there all through late May and through the month of June.

These guys definately made it on:
Efrain Escudero
Junie Allen Browning
Shane Nelson
Phillippe Nover
George Roop
Roli Delgado

Question marks
Dave Kaplan (very likely made it on, is on all the top friends of the guys who made it on)
John Polakowski (also very likely made it on, on all the top friends of the guys who made it on)
Jason McKay


Did not make it on
Joe Duarte (possibly got injured),
Wesley Murch- left a comment on Duarte's myspace May 27th that he was going to start training next week...show was already filming at that point so he wouldnt have had access to a computer)
Charles Diaz- left a comment on Murch's myspace May27th, unless they changed the rules and gave them access to computers, he couldnt have made it on, he wrote "good to hear from you" which likely means they both had gone home.
Mike Budnik
Spencer Paige

he could be talking about the coaches. the only 2 possible coaches for this in my opinion looks like Tyson Griffin age 24 and Sean Sherk. Thats what I'm starting to think, but who knows. Did he announce the age of the fighter after ufc 86?
