TUF Bisping vs Miller

[Mjolnir]

Edit by MetalBlade: I moved this post to here, as I think this show warrants it's own thread, and your post was the ideal starting point.

SPOILER ALERT!!!!!!

I know its not really a Spoiler as you said you didnt get spike....
I have to watch Spike on me Laptop but it has a decent size screen so it's all good...
Anyways..just watched first episode of the new TUF and what a good season this is going to be dude,in fact it could be the best season ever!!!

This is Bantamweights and Featherweights and boy oh boy these little guys never give up do they!!!
These are some of the best fights i have ever seen on TUF Dude...
And it was only the prelims to get into the house....

There was a little bit of banter between Miller and Bisping but it was all about the fighters and both coaches respect.ed that..
Dana was impressed by all the fighters who won and a few who lost also...
Overall a great start to what may be the Best Season ever!!!

[MetalBlade]

Well well well, not such a spoiler after all, dude.
I watched this last night.
Yes they are showing over here on FX every Thursday night, and last night was the first episode.
Out of the ones who won, my pick to win the thing outright is the guy in the red trunks in the second fight. The one whose motivation was that he found out the kid he spent three years raising was not his own. Theirs was fight of the night, and if they don't somehow find a way to bring back his defeated opponent to replace someone who's injured, then Dana wants his (now bald) head looking at. I was also impressed with the Japanese kid who lost, and the cowboy guy whose brother got beat, the green haired young chap, the guy they referred to as "Lashley on crack" (how I ROFLed) and especially the big powerful bearded Swede with the great name, Akira Currosada or something. Sounds like one of my snortly Oriental film directors (snortle snortle). Really hope he gets to the final.

So yes, you can post about TUF as much as you like dude, cos I'll be watching every Thrsday night. And I really don't like Miller dude. First impressions, he strikes me as an arrogant fucking jock who is itching for Bisping's fist down his throat. The more I see Bisping, the more I like him. He is easily the most down to earth fighter in the game. But also the most easily wound up, so I am looking forward to fireworks this season. Who know, Miller might endear himself to me in the coming weeks.

[Mjolnir]

Oh he will,trust me you will like Miller a lot...hes funny as fuck and he is a tough sob too..
Glad to have you on board captain MetalBlade!!!!
I watch them a day earlier than you so will post on thursdays....

Spoiler Alert!!!!!
Ha!!!!
Thats one zip to My Boy Miller....
I like bisping but i wish he would chill out a bit but thats whats gonna make this a good season as miller will push his buttons to the extreme!
A good fight was had and the winner looked like he could be good...
Overall i am loving TUF so far....
"He looks tired"....Classic line from Miller i feel!!!!

[MetalBlade]

I highly rated Marcus from what I saw in his prelim fight. "Lashley On Crack" impressed me with his striking, but last night really showed a massive flaw in his game with zero takedown defence. He showed no discipline, ignored all his corner's instructions and coaching, and failed to make the most of his striking advantage.
His opponent, whilst showing some skill in BJJ, really should have put his guy away long before he did. If Marcus could keep the guy on his back for nearly two rounds before tapping, any fighter with an ounce of Ju Jitsu will know how to escape that body triangle and reverse it easily.

Overall, I was unimpressed with either fighter to be honest, and feel the best is to come.
My picks from each weight class are:
Johnny Bedford - Bantamweight (Team Miller) - He reminds me of a young Chuck Liddel with his fighting style and tenacity, and will take the bantamweight crown I think.
Akira Corassani - Featherweight (Team Bisping) - The Swede with the great name has the intensity of a young and machine-like Andrei Arlovski, and I believe he will take the featherweight contract.

I was also unimpressed with the way Bisping clearly let the hi-jinks of the Miller team get the better of him. Having said that, if some twat did to me what they did with them tires [sic], I'd wanna break his fucking neck an all!

[Mjolnir]

Exactly!!!Miller is getting under Bispings skin allready and Bisping is falling for it!!!
I sort of agree with your picks but need to see more to be really sure!!
The best is yet to come i'm sure!!
Glad your Enjoying as much as me dude!!!
I will never get Tired(sic!) of this show!!!

[MetalBlade]

I'll never get tyred [sic] of it either. I think it is essential viewing for any MMA fan.
It gives you an insight into the training involved, the preparation required before a fight, and the dynamic of the house and it's inhabitants is always compelling.
What's gonna happen next? Well by the looks of things judging by the trailer for next week's show, my boy Akira is gonna get involved in a clash of egos with some dumb jock who thinks he sings for Sabaton. There's always one who takes practical joking that step too far...

...that noise.

You are right though, we need to see these guys more before making our ultimate choices for who will win each class. Marcus looked great in the prelims but was exposed in his first round fight. My hope is that Akira is another Kimbo, who keeps a lowish profile, gets on with the job, focusses and takes in all the training. But unlike Kimbo, goes on to win.

Where is Kimbo these days anyway? He seems to have slipped underneath the radar.

[Mjolnir]

Wheres Kimbo??

Well dude,you asked and i found out!!!just call me an investigative mma
journalist!!!

Post-MMA/boxing career

In August 2010, it emerged that Kimbo Slice was intending to take up a career in professional boxing. He stated "I feel like a baby all over again. I'm thinking about this at night. I'm gonna be a problem in the heavyweight division. I'm going to be coming in with a bad demeanor. I want to see what it's like to break some ribs, break a jaw with one punch. This is a career move. I love fighting. I like to knock people the fuck out. I love engaging. Maybe some people think I'm crazy."

Roy Jones, Jr. has stated that he would like to fight Kimbo Slice, but claimed that Kimbo would likely have to have a number of boxing matches beforehand in order to gain experience and exposure in the sport.

Kimbo was set to make his debut in professional wrestling on February 5, 2011 against former Sumo wrestler Shinichi Suzukawa at the Inoki Genome Federation's "Genome 14" event in Fukuoka, Japan, But Kimbo later pulled out of the match due to getting injured in practice.

Slice made his pro boxing debut on August 13, 2011. Slice fought in a four-round headlining attraction against 39 year old James Wade (0-1) at the Buffalo Run Casino in Miami, Oklahoma. He won the fight via KO at 0:10 in the first round.

On October 15, Kimbo is expected to return to the boxing ring, against an as-of-yet unannounced opponent.

I hope that answers your question dude and it was my pleasure to help!!!

[MetalBlade]

Lol, can't ask for a better debut than that, knocking the guy the fuck out in ten seconds!
I hope he does fight Roy Jones, and makes a mess of his head.

[Mjolnir]

Couldnt have put it better meself!!
Go Kimbo Go..

[Mjolnir]

Oh my god dude!!!!
2-zip to Team Miller and Bisping is getting pissed off royaly..
I missed writing this last week so now onto this weeks results...
First of two fight and its 3-Zip to team Miller....Good dominating show by the lad..
2nd fight and The Green Haired dude just said our quote from They Live dude...The Bubblegum quote...Love it but hes on the wrong team as i am all Team Miller and as coaching goes Miller is waaaaaay ahead of Bisping so far...
The Religious dude said hes a deciple of Jesus Christ and i thought just that....Oh well if thats the strengh he needs them power too him i suppose...
Fight 2 on tonight and Oh dear god its becoming a rout for my Boy Mayhem...Told you dude didnt i...
Bisping thinks hes a star and Miller is still Hungry(why do i have a Twisted Sister song in me head??)
Thats 4-zip to Team Mayhem Brother..Your Boy Bisping has some catching up to do now and he has a f**king midget mole in the house....

[MetalBlade]

Yeah Bisping is losing credibility as a coach dude, especially when he embarrassed Shiner Boy in front of the whole team in the locker room. He had the decency to pull Bisping to one side and confide in him that he thought he was out of order in his coaching methods. That should have remained between the two, but no - Bisping outed him as a whiner to his team.
Fair enough, the guy got pummelled, and did ignore all of his corner's advice throughout the fight, and even acknowledged that fact afterwards. But I was a bit ashamed of The Count when he made Shiner Boy feel small like that in front of the team.

I was really shocked that The Green Guy failed so massively. I highly favoured him going into the fight, but right off the bat, Bible Basher's really excellent kickboxing ability became apparent. He also used the sizeable reach advantage to keep him away. Green Guy was a little bit too full o' beans, coming across like a less skillful Clay Guida - very game but ultimately not much in the locker. Bible Basher dominated over the two rounds and there was only ever gonna be one winner. He has been by far the most impressive I have seen so far this season, and seems a nice guy too, so I expect him to go far in UFC.

The two guys I am waiting for now are Johnny Bedford and the Swedish Samurai (who is the only guy I can see winning for Bisping's team).
(You will have noticed I am shit a remembering names, hence the nicknames I have given. I only remembered Johnny's name cos he won last week).

[Mjolnir]

I cant remember any of theyre names either until about the 6th or 7th episode so dont sweat it Brother..
Currisawa or whatever his name is better be good because hes built himself up royaly and if he loses then he will look like a twat!!

[Mjolnir]

I don't know if it was Herbs Dreads in the Way but Mr Dean Dropped the Ball big time and didn't see an obvious tap out...Where was he looking?? Herb Herb Herb!!! That Noise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Akira Tapped and thats it but Herb Fucked up and didn't see it so what now??
Theres been more action outside the octagon than inside this season but thats all part of the TUF Game i suppose!!!
Akira you are a Lucky Son of a bitch!!!!!!
And i really Really Don't like you and hope you get your ass kicked from pillar to post in the next fight you Prick...Go get yer Shine Box Akira!!!!
And i Hope Miller kicks Bispings arse in they're fight also as he is annoying the shit out of me and i really don't like him anymore!!!
