^^ Yeah, that was completely classic. I really like Yod and John Wayne. I hope it is them in the finals.

I am really happy Rafik is gone.... just too disrespectful for my taste.


Yod looked good tonight. He was smart because he didn't box a boxer.. he just kicked those arms until they were jello.

I really like this show and I hope they do another season for sure.

Tonight's episode and last weeks were both really good in my opinion. I like the dynamic of the show, even more than TUF, all the fighters are respectful in the sense that they are getting trashed and destroying the place.

I think John Wayne and Soren are awesome. Tiger Kings have been my preferred team since the first episode so I'm not remotely disappointed that they keep winning.

I thought the fight tonight was really close, coulda went either way, understand why David lost though.

I hope they make another season, I'd love to see Carnage on the show.

That was a great fight, David definitely fell behind (even w/ the point deductions). Best fight on the show so far, no contest.

I'm really liking this episode so far, I can't wait to see how the quaterfinals start off next week, especially considering good of friends the teams seem to be with each other.

John Wayne Parr is awesome, I don't know how anyone could not like the guy, I think he's the perfect person to be the captain of the team and just a good representitive of the sport.

I ended up having to catch a rereun of last week's episode.


Naru and Yod having to fight was pretty intense. You could just tell that Naru's heart was not in the fight. Yod, I guess, did what he had to do. I would have picked Yod to win in the first place (he is who I am picking to win the whole thing), but still.

It is funny how some fans of MMA act like it is just so easy to fight a friend and that people in the same camp have no right to not fight each other. Just goes to show you that some people don't know what the hell they are talking about.


I mean, who wants to knock out a friend? Who wants to beat their team mate? It is very hard to deal with, especially the next day when you are side by side at the camp again.

It was a fight that, in my opinion, could have been the finals. Might have been the finals if they hadn't had to fight one another that earlier. I had them at number one and number three, as far as ranking the best fighters in the house, with JWP at 2.

I agree, it's hard to go out and fight someone you're that close to, especially when they had been training together for so long. Naru's heart wasn't in it for the win, you could really see it at the begining of the fight, which makes me wish the fight had been matched up a different way.

The thing that got me, all the fighers got to see their families right? JWP was in quarantine. I'm still hoping they let him see his wife and kids.

I imagine they did. I would like to think they did anyway.




Man, JWP really laid down the law on Zidov. I thought it was going to be a much more competitive fight, but Zidov just couldn't get in his grove at all.

This week's episode should be a good one by the way the "Next time on the Contender" thing went.

I think we are definitely going to see JWP vs. Yod in the finals. Should be good.


Man, I just want to go find all the episodes online and watch them, but I really want to give the show the ratings so that we see another season some day. This is one of the few times I have been really interested in a reality show.

Man. Im so hype about this show. I just joined black belt usa. I cant wait to get KOed. I gotta sleep to dream.
