TUF 17 Discussion!

Come here for all the conversation of this seasons Ultimate Fighter which debuts tonight. 

UFC is delivering big with the new season of The Ultimate Fighter by making light heavyweight champion Jon Jones and challenger Chael Sonnen the head coaches. 


Jones and Sonnen are set to square off for the light heavyweight championship on April 27, so this is the perfect forum for these two stars to build their fight and help turn the participants on the show into names that fans know. 

The face of MMA, The People's Champion, the man with the golden tongue, the master of the power double, the sexiest man alive, the bad guy, the icon, the legend....

Makes his long awaited appearance on The Ultimate Fighter TONIGHT at 8PM EST on FX. Weeks of epic Sonnen-isms to laugh hysterically at and hold us over until it all comes to a head at UFC 159 for a title showdown with Jon Jones.

"When you're the best in the world, they don't call you a great fighter. They call you Chael Sonnen. Beat me....if you can." - Chael Sonnen



My pick to win the whole thing: Tor Troeng

Yea, the look on his face after the KO was priceless haha

Also this season there isn't all that ******** house drama. It's a house full of legitimately talented guys. Awesome fights all season, and some crazy finishes. 

Mike I just looked at the wiki for the season and it looks like a lot of finishes. the reason I watched TUF was for awesome fights, but it became like Jersey Shore and it just got annoying.

Last weeks episode, one of my favorites.

Well Condit, if you haven't figured it out already, this has been the best season in a long time, which excellent fights. In my opinion, top three seasons ever, if not my favorite.

Definitely in my top 3.

The last 4 all have heart and potential in the UFC. But I want Kevin to win it all. 

His name is Kelvin. 

why would anyone want urijah to drop to 170 ? 185 needs fighters!


Urijah, Josh, Kelvin, Dylan, Luke, Colin, Jimmy, Clint and even Tor or Cella could be very good additions to the roster.

That would shake things up a lot

Looking at the trail of destruction that Hall has left behind him, how tough was that Andy Enz dude who fought him to get in to the house? He got blasted by Uriah and managed to take him to a decision. Seeing now how hard Uriah hits, it really is very impressive.

For sure. If Uriah wins the tournament, Andy Enz has gotto wonder how many of the guys on the show he would have been able to beat.

I'm still not sure about Urijah defensively though I hope he wins the finalle. I really want to see if other fighters in the UFC will be as scared of him as the TuF guys

Uriah is an impressive fighter.  I think he would be a handful for a lot of the top guys in his weight class right now.  However, I'd like to see him take his time, and do it right.  Fight some guys in the middle tier, and train with a world class camp, to really zero in his sights.  He looks awesome out there, but I think that he leaves himself open for the right hand.  The right fighter would find a way to capitalize on that, and possibly put his lights out.  We have yet to see his chin tested, so I'm not sure how well he takes a shot.

I like him a lot, though, and hope that the right camp picks him up and makes him into the beast he's destine to be.
