Stemming off of an earlier forum discussion, who do you think would make great coaches to compete against one another?  I wasn't a fan, originally of Bisping across from Mayhem Miller, but I am really enjoying this season.

Silva vs. Belfort in a Brazil season would be awesome.

I've always felt Anderson would be a good coach.  Chael Sonnen and Brian Stann would be awesome coaches.  Pretty much anyone who's an all-around good personality.

I don't think Jones would be a good coach. He isnot like other athletes, he's a freak of nature. He would be like, do a spinning elbow jumping kick lateral drop combo, and the kid would be like "wut"

Hopefully if Jones was to coach he'd bring some of the assts. from Jackson's

Yeah let the coaches do their thing and he could help with the mental aspect...he seems real big into that side of being an athlete.

I respect your guys opinions but I really have to disagree with Jon jones, Phil davis, etc. The reason? They are still to young. I'd rather try use coaches who have more experience and more to teach.

I think Forrest vs rich Franklin would've made a fun season. The coaches don't necessarily have to be in title contention.

What about classics or Hall of Fame coaches like:

Dan Severn vs. Mark Colemen

That would be pretty sweet.  

In regards to the Jon Jones not being a great coach, he would be there to help you with technique and leave it up to you if you want to fight like him.  I think he still has the skill to improve someones game.

Dan Severn and mark Coleman as coaches? They do have experience but I think the sport has surpassed them. (no offense)

They should bring back the coaches of Season 1.  Randy and Chuck.

There would be no coach's fight at the end of the season, but I think it would be cool to see those 2 competing with each other again.

i disagree. Randy and Chuck are both past being able to compete in mma. Their rubber match is one of the greatest stories in mma history. imo another fight between them would be inferior to their previous competitions and only detract from both legacies

So we can all agree that Harold Howard vs. Bob Sapp would be the best Ultimate Fighter coach setup?

buffalo ben....I said, "There would be no coach's fight at the end of the season..."

They wouldn't fight.  They would just compete as coaches.
