...I'm going to ask this as respectfully as possible, but do you think the standards were lowered a bit for accepting fighters into this season? There were no "earn your place on the show" fights for starters...Very little ground game displayed by anyone. Cardio has been close to non-existant...The UFC H.W. division needs more contenders than any other weight class, I just have a hard time believing this is the best they could have come up with. I get tired of watching the Kimbo factor get beat to death, but is it possible they were trying to get a large portion of guys on the show they thought he could beat to help keep the ratings up or something? The fights this season have been trainwrecks for the most part, last night's by far the worst of all, and it's all I can do to make it through half the drama-infested editing before they even happen.
I am glad Roy Nelson is on this season, but why he's there and Ben Rothwell just co-headlined the last PPV is another mind-fuck. Outside of Nelson and the guy that choked out Simms I've all but lost hope for this one. I've had some TUF burnout going on for the past few seasons, this may be the last I bother to pay attention to.
