Most impressive fighter on TUF 5 so far

So we've had 6 fights so far featuring a few dominant performances and a few close fights. So of the 6 winners who do you think is your pick to win the show?

I think it's a toss-up between Manny Gamburyan and Joe Lauzon. I would rank Nate Diaz a close number 3. I give a slight edge to Manny for submission and ground skills (though Joe's choke was impressive). Though if Nate is anything like his brother, he may just suprise me and knock them both out.

honestly i would wait with this poll till the other 2 fights come, but i liked nate diaz because he had such a unique style

I think his hands are too low to compete against some of the better guys in the UFC. Lauzon already proved he can.

well i think he was being a bit to careful, but i mean i don't see many fighters using the stance he did, and controlling it so well

The only two people who fought who looked like they were already MMA caliber fighters were Lauzon and Manny. Not just because they brought the fight, but they were confident, and just overall, good.

Nate Diaz was good, but not impressive.. and I don't even want to talk about Cole.

yeah but your talking about 2 overly agressive fighters, id say nate is usually getting ready with a plan instead of just wanting to ktfo of the other guy

Well, at the rate things are going, Team Pulver Fighters are going to be fighting other Team Pulver Fighters, so we will see if he does the game plan thing or not
