"If the enemy rejects the ground, I would take him down by tackle. Why didn’t he [Royler] do so? May I introduce him to a good coach? His tackle was... like a girl’s one... Mr. Royler, how are you feeling?" - Kazushi Sakuraba

Again another disappointing pick by the UFC for coaches on TUF. Don't get me wrong, I love Roy Nelson and Shane Carwin both. I'm a very big fan of them both as fighters, but I would much rather see Stefan Bonnar and Forrest Griffin as coaches. In fact, why not make TUF more interesting would be to set up a card of TUF coaches, or some sort of team type thing.
Bear with me here, let me explain it like this. UFC TUF Season 16 - The Comeback II
Coaches for Green Team - Nick Diaz, Forrest Griffin, and Roy Nelson
Coaches for Blue Team - GSP, Stefan Bonnar, and Shane Carwin
It's far fetched, I know, but it would create a whole new format and drama on all sides of the fence on the show. Among the fighters and the coaches.

"Bulked-up and wrestling-oriented Carwin is a mechanical engineer by day, while portly jiujitsu ace "Big Country" Nelson is a full-time fighter."
I had assumed that most UFC fighters are full-time in training.

I'd like to see a season again where both the coaches respected each other, like Couture and Liddell. Obviously it's a competition and they both want to win, but it'd be nice to keep the hatred out of it for once.

I'm happy about this they can now throw Cerrone vs Pettis as the co-main event at UFC 150 and let Cerrone get a fight in Denver!

This season will be fun to watch but **** I'm sick of seeing welterweights and lightweights every ******* year, can't they do something like bantamweights and light heavyweights?

I'm just afraid they will both be gassed out by the first and we'll have a 4 round snoozer with eventual sparks here and there.
