Should be good.

I hope they don't do like they did in TUF Brazil 2 and bring back the stupid-ass challenges.

My guess is they did that in the Brazilian show to add some more shameless product placement and don't pull that **** on the other TUF productions.

Not sure why they are having another Aussie season so soon, it's not like the last season was overflowing with talent. I much rather they go somewhere like Japan, Korea, or Russia. Good to see them at least add Canada in though

Canada is a good country for them to pull some TUF fighters from, I'm not too thrilled about Australia though.

They should have done Japan vs. Korea which I think would have been much better.

I would have done Japan vs. Korea at bantamweight and featherweight. There's a pretty deep market in those weight classes and I would've love to have seen them have fighters like Masanori Kanehara, Kazuyuki Miyata, Doo Ho Choi, Kyoji Horiguchi and Tetsu Hadairo trying out for that season.

I would prefer that the UFC use this TUF format of country vs country to try and break into a market like Mexico or Russia. 

Wonder who the coaches will be ?

Now that you mention it, picking coaches for this would be pretty tough (no pun intended).

Perosh vs. Jimmo possibly.

I would prefer Cote vs. Noke though.

Ouch.

Just not a lot of Aussies to choose from. I also realized there is not a single Canadian HW on the roster when looking through it.

You were looking for someone to coach against Hunt too weren't you ;)

p.s. Yes, I know he's from New Zealand, but it's close enough :)))

Shame Te-Huna and Jimmo have just fought ... this could've been a great coaches matchup. Especially now we know how their fight turned out.

lol. canada can't win a single TUF (fighter) so they decide to put in a team full of canadians just to increase their chances of winning

I was hoping it would be an all Canadian TUF but I guess this will have to do. They better still stick to LW and or FW.

Cool, but why Australia? It didn't go too well the last time, it seems as there isn't much talent there.

Canada-Russia, on the other hand...

Hector Lombard could be a coach for Team Australia.

Nah, only Canadian in middleweight is Nick Ring ... who wants to see that?

Maybe Carmont? He's french, but he fights out of Canada ... THAT I'd like to see.

Carmont's streak makes him ready for a top fighter.
Lombard's mediocre showing shows he's a top fight on the way down.
Carmont's last two fights make him deserve to be KTFO'd.

Looks good to me.

Didn't Lombard say he might drop to WW? Rory vs. Lombard.

Rory vs. Lombard would be an amazing season and fight.

Rory would steamroll Lombard after he gasses after the first 2 minutes of the first round.

What weight classes are they going to use? Lightweight or welterweight? Just a always. I hate TUF's with the same weight classes. They should have went to Japan and should have done a 125lb weight TUF.

Canada's best weight classes are LW and FW, if it doesn't take place there it's a waste of having Canada on TUF.
