You know they're encouraging guys to be dramatic . It's not scripted, and it's more "real" than some junk like 'The Hills' --which I only know about because my wife inexplicably watches it, and Joel on 'The Soup' explicably uses clips from it -- but TUF household highlights are surely part of the sceme to create drama so that people will watch, and latch onto fighters and want to follow them. All about TV ratings and getting and keeping more fans. Reality Show business model . Dana probably doesn't even need to coach them much anymore ; they've had enough role models on the show by now
