In your face, Carla!!!

All that **** Esparza keeps talking about Torres' second chance when everybody knows that if she were in her place she'd be all over that second chance.

Like it's the first time ever in TUF they brought someone back because another chick/dude got injured.

I hope Torres kicks her whiny behind next round!!! (though she's been looking VERY beatable on the show)

I know it's somewhat of a longshot but if the finale is Jessica vs. Jojo / Rose I'll be one happy little camper!

I thought Tecia took both rounds pretty clearly though round 2 was closer. Angela, Bec and their little scrap pack are coming off as a bunch of *******s, sitting around complaining about drama when they are the ones creating it all. Anywho Team Pettis ties the worst beatings for TUF completely trouncing Melendez 7-1 though Rose has a chance to go all the way. Unfortunately she would have to beat Jojo who has been my favorite on the show.

I really like Bec Rawlings ... she's a scrappy journeywoman, but she's just a great gal and adds colour to every roster she's on.

She's kind of a Matt Brown where you're pretty sure she'll never be champ but every now and then she may put together a streak that gets her in the talks (she's already fought for Invicta gold).

That's why I was kinda pissed off that she and Rosie got pulled into Magana's high-school BS drama ...

"She's kind of a Matt Brown"


100% @yoss. That really sums Bec up. She is awesome and I always wish her well even though I doubt she'll ever be champ. Too tough a division.


I hope Rose or JoJo win the finals. They are my two favorites on the show.

Mine too ... which is why it sucks they're fighting next ... I'd have rather they be on the opposite sides of the brackets ... my #3 though is Jessica Penne, so I've still got hope for the finals ...

@ben, that is so true. I'm actually surprised her name isn't Ashley.

I tried to watch last night's episode and it was like they are all female versions of Julian Lane.  30 seconds I had a headache from all the *****ing and whining and then I turned the channel before the fight even happened.

I've seen Bec post a lot on forums and she seemed ok there but she certainly hurt her image a lot being a toady for Magana. Lopati is right that this was a particularly *****y episode even my wife got annoyed by the girl's attitude and whining. For someone like her who has no prior experience with Bec she already has a bad taste in her mouth about her and Angela. This could be the case for a lot of people who didn't know about her prior to the show or for those who don't frequent her forums.

It makes me appreciate Marcos, Torres, and JoJo that much more for knowing why they are there (to fight, not to reenact episodes of The Real World) .  Takes a bit away from Rose to see her involved in the drama.

Some exciting quarter finals comin up! I don't like Tecia and feel like she doesn't deserve a chance to win because she already lost.

Why are some people so picky about Tecia when the "wild card" losers get back in thing was a feature on some earlier TUFs? Her fight with Randa was good and very close and it's obvious from Randa's performance she's leagues above the other lower seeds and probably some of the higher ones. Plus her next matchup is with Esparza which is quite possibly her worst matchup since she lost to Randa because of wrestling and Esparza is a former NCAA level wrestler.
