I sometimes train BJJ in Laffy with Chris on Saturdays. I wished him luck on a Saturday...and saw him on friday in BR. He said that he kept calling to get a ride to the gym and they never picked him up. That they picked him up the morning of he needed to make weight to bring him to the gym. He said that he kept passing out...and something that the emt's leave as soon as they stop rolling, so they didnt allow him to continue or something...

Its been awhile so I dont remember much of what he told me.

I wote alittle about it in the past

Speaking of problems with the brain, I can't see how Rob Browning makes it to the house. He's a natural 135er and Dent is a UFC vet.


Pretty sure I saw Browning in the clips for "This season on The Ultimate Fighter". That leads me to believe he makes it in the house.

Juding from these first two episodes, it looks like the American team could be in for a word of hurt. I hope I'm wrong.

I'm not even sure I'd call it a turtle. It was more fetal.

Based on resumes the UK team is stronger but it will not be out right domination.

I still say it is very possible because of the lack of ringers that someone comes out of no where and wins it like Amir did.

Definitely. There were a few guys that looked pretty good (and comfortable) in there but not many real stand outs. Hell half the American team got their arse beat before pulling out a victory.

The UK team definitely looked more hungry in their fights.

Dan did NOT look too impressed last night after seeing the American fighters. He appeared to have that FML look on his face.

If his team doesn't do well at least he has the excuse that he didn't pick the team.

only clip I saw him in was when smashed the egg on that guy and flipped out. I figured the two alternates spent a night in the house. I don't think its out the question that he starts some shite in his first night in the house.

But he might beat Dent, who knows.

That's a definite out. He was saying at the opening of the show that he was proud to be involved with this season, representing the USA with his olympic background. I'm pretty sure "pride" was not what he was feeling after those fights.

I find it a strange coincidence that Junie Browning's little brother finds a way to get his name affiliated with the show. This shite is really starting to piss me off. Does anyone know if he makes it on the show?

I don't know one way or another, but I'd be surprised if Dent doesn't smash him.

I haven't talked to him in about a year at least. Crazy that he's fighting at such a light weight. He used to be like 225-230.

I heard he's fighting at 185-205 now.

Did you watch last night's show? They made him look like an arse. Felt bad for him.
