There has been rumors for months as to who the new coaches would be but nothing has been settled yet that we know of. It would be awesome to see some of the feather or bantam weight fighters as coaches. It just seems like TUF needs another breath of fresh air after this season. Bisping and Sonnen would have been good tv for the epic trash talking but that has been scrapped because of Sonnen's suspension. Who would be suitable replacements that besides providing entertainment, would be good coaches and an even better fight?

Bisping and Mayhem confirmed as TUF-14 coaches. I think that's the best option.

Lol woot! Got it right.

Does this mean Mayhem won't be fighting Simpson though?

I don't like that Mayhem is confirmed with a fight still to be decided

I forgot about the Mayhem/Simpson fight. I'm assuming it's still on. Who knows whether Mayhem would still get this shot were he to lose.

Another pointless fight for Bisping, I don't think Mayhem is even top 20.

Yeah, I just read that the Simpson fight is off too. This probably deserves a new thread.

I'd love to see some of the suggestions that I've seen on this thread such as Bisping/Sonnen, Anderson/Sonnen, Bisping/Belcher, Jones/Evans, and Edgar/Maynard would good too. The best one I've seen that would have the most dramatic effect would either be Sonnen/Bisping or Anderson/Sonnen. Because of Sonnen's suspension, and other issues going on right now, Sonnen probably won't be able to participate in the next season of TUF. This could workout for the better in the long run though if you think about. By the time Sonnen takes care of all of his legal and CSAC b.s., and if Bisping stays on the winning track, TUF 16 could be a great time for Bisping/Sonnen with the winner of that fight getting a shot at the UFC MW title, or if Anderson retires, could ultimately become the the UFC MW Champion.

Another suggestion that I thought of the next season of TUF could, if he's willing to do it, Brock Lesnar vs. Frank Mir. Others that come to mind are Wandy/Belfort, Wandy/Bisping, Shields/Mayhem, Diaz/GSP, and Penn/Fitch.

Penn/Shields and Kos/Alves would be good too.
