Anyone enjoying this season of The Ultimate Fighter?

I've watched all the episodes so far and I find myself waiting for it to be over so I can watch The Best of Pride Fighting Championships afterwards. I don't know, I guess I'm over this whole TUF.

I owe a lot to TUF though. I loved to watch boxing in high school, and even did a little for Lock Haven University in Pennsylvania while in college. I only saw bits and pieces of UFC events when friends had old VCR tapes of it playing, but never really started to watch it until Fox Sports Net started running replays of Pride events. Then TUF season one came on and I was hooked.

I really enjoyed the first season, when the guys all had challenges to do and things like that. I know that's the format for most reality shows, but I enjoyed "The Right Guard" challenges. It just seemed to keep getting worse, and worse and worse as the seasons rolled on. Don't know, just not that impressed with the series anymore. Need something new, different.

I am so far. I had a feeling that Yager was going to be that guy and he is, but I think he can back it up. Chuck's little guys have been doing fine too ;)

As far as the challenges go I agree with you, but I'm more into it for the fights. There seems to be some good match ups coming up.

I am having a feeling its gonna turn out like last year; the person I end up hating is the best fighter and will win it all. I hated Roy Nelson the whole time because of his arrogance and he backed it up. From the way he performed in his first fight, and his impressive fight to get into the house; Im feeling like Yager is going to do the same thing.

I'm not a fan of Big Country either but the difference is he was a seasoned veteran and had been in WARS. he had fought on a big stage for years. Yager is a punk. Sure, he has some skills but I want to see him get hit before i go crowning him the next TUF champion. He hasn't even been touched yet.

This season has just been ok so far, certainly not the fireworks of Rashad/Rampage last season. Rampage didn't seem like a great coach, but he's so funny that it kept my interest all season, I especially loved the chicken prank! But I do agree that the show has gotten a little formulaic and boring. I like the coaches challenge that they do each year, but that only happens once. I'd love to see little challenges along the way where the guys could make money. It would make the show more interesting and it would give them a break from training.

And it seems like the pranks have all but stopped, which it too bad. The ongoing prank war during the Mir/Nog season was flat out hilarious! I will never look at a mixed fruit plate the same again!

I really like this season so far, personally I dont need to be entertained during this show with bells and whistles, I'm a get to the basics of MMA type fan and I love seeing the training and fights. Only thing that bums me out about this season is the fact that Tito doesnt finish the season, was really looking forward to Chuck pounding Tito this year...oh well..lol

i just tune in the last 15 minutes to watch the fights, i hated the seasons when fighters would get drunk and destroy a house that most people dream about having, and most of the time nothing is done about it......i also love watching the best of pride, the shamrock / frye fight is still awesome

[mayhem13]

theres a lot of talent this season, so I like watching it..Im interested in seeing how it ends up. Noke, Ring and McGee are all studs. I think one of them will win.

The in house Drama is just filler, and i just kind of glaze over during it..haha

Lots of good fighters this season. Finding out that Tito is an awesome coach, and I would love for him to coach me.

Exciting fights, and looking forward to see who wins. Also Liddell vs Franklin should be an awesome fight too.

I watch it. I liked some of the other seasons better but i still enjoy watching this one. I like how Tito puts the effort in to try to coach. I think Yager is gonna get ko'd by someone, and i watch the best of pride after also. Some great fights on there.
