Best Tuf fighter

Everyone knows the first few seasons of TUF had a ton of incredible fighters but since Tuf 6 and onward there has only been one or two fighters to make it after the show. Roughly who are your top 5 since tuf 6?

1. John Dodson

2. TJ Dillishaw

3. Matt Brown

4. Brendan Schaub

5. Myles Jury

I'm sure I missed some but they are the first 5 who come to mind right now.

Dennis Bermudez is one of the best to not win in recent years. Actually, if he and Brandao had a rematch of the finale tomorrow, he would win.

What exactly does "make it" mean. There are still like 10 dudes from TUF LIVE in the UFC. 

1. John Dodson
2. Matt Brown
3. TJ Dillashaw
4. Dennis Bermudez
5. Ryan Bader


Honorable Mentions | Roy Nelson , Michael Johnson , Brad Tavares , Diego Brandao , Court McGee , Brendan Schaub

The Immortal!! Matt Brown!

If your top 5 doesn't have Roy Nelson in it, you're a ******* idiot.

I'd say Diego Brandao was more dominating in his TUF run than Uriah Hall. People were scared to fight him, he actually won the season and look at the people he destroyed in TUF: Steven Siler, Bryan Caraway and Dennis Bermudez.

I'm sorry but that's a lot better than Uriah Hall beating No-Name One and No-Name Two before getting wiped out by a fat teenager.

If people were scared of Brandao, then they were terrified of fighting Uriah.

I'm too lazy to look into it, but i'm curious how one could rate the success of TUF competitors against TUF champions and see which category has ultimately had more success.

Dude. He spinkicked Adam Cella.

******* MikeLovesTacos has a TKO victory over Adam Cella; while the kick was impressive, the competition was not.

The entire TUF cast was afraid but who did he beat; Adam Cella, Bubba McDaniel and Dylan Andrews. He lost to Kelvin Gastelum.

Who did Brandao finish? Steven Siler, Bryan Caraway and Dennis Bermudez.

Cella just lost to some random no-name with record less than .500. Bubba is on a 2 fight losing streak and on his way out the UFC. Dylan Andrews is the most successful name and he's 2-1 with a loss to a cast member, a win against another cast member who doesn't know how to punch and a win against some Swede with no job.

Now let's compare that to Brandao's opponents: Bryan Caraway is ranked 15 in the world and he should be on a 4 fight winning streak. Steven Siler is 5-3 in the UFC and just came off a controversial stoppage. His only other losses are to Darren Elkins (a top 10nner at the time) and Dennis Bermudez, another guy who Brandao destroyed in a round. Bermudez is currently ranked #10 in the world and he's on a 6 fight winning streak.

Now let's look at the fights themselves. Uriah Hall spinkicked Adam Cella in the 1st round, which was impressive. He then broke Bubba McDaniel's face in the first round, which was also very impressive. He finished Dylan Andrews with some ground n' pound after reversing his position in the second round, which was solid as well. But then he got completely outclassed by Kelvin Gastelum.

Diego Brandao knocked Steven Siler out in under a minute with a hook. He then knocked out Caraway with a flying knee before snapping Bermudez's arm in half, again in the first round.

I just think it's obvious: Brandao was clearly the more impressive fighter and perhaps the most impressive fighter ever in TUF history.

Shots fired.

Everyone knows Jason Thacker is the TUF GOAT.

The best thing about the "let me bang bro" gif is Mike Ricci's facial reaction to entire idiocy.
