Normally I wouldn't have posted this here but they keep showing previews for this episode and it's supposed to be all sorts of crazy with one of the dudes flipping out. Looks like good TV whether or not you like the sport. If you like some good ole fashioned violence I'd check it out.

Do they feed these punks booze on purpose?

Makes for good ratings. They don't force the booze down but they put them into a house with all the booze they could ever want already stocked.

In Junie's defense he doesn't look any worse at this stage than Chris Leben who is going to knock out Michael Bisping at the next UFC. Browning is uber-talented and will eventually be a very good UFC fighter if he doesn't get perma-banned by Dana.

Who jumps the octagon after the fight tonight is what I'm trying to figure out... this other stuff isn't even supposed to be the big drama of the night...

dana knows the ufc needs ratings

Well UFC is taking in millions of dollars like it's nothing so they don't need them that bad but the reality show definitely helps to advertise the PPVs and get the sport to the mainstream.

This was one of the greatest ideas in any business ever when you think about it. So many new fans because of this show.

Do you really think Leben can win this? He's like +180 I think. Would be a nice dog to hit.

Bisping does not have good takedowns and Leben has good takedown defense. Leben wants to keep this standing and it will. Bisping is more technical but his chin is not above average and he got knocked on his ass by Elvis Sinosic who is a gatekeeper at best. Leben will connect and it will be lights out for "The Count". Bisping doesn't have good enough takedowns to take advantage of his edge in submissions. The only thing that scares me is if Bisping gets rocked, hits the canvas, and Leben follows in for the kill and gets caught by a sub but at +180 when Leben should be a -160 favorite on my line I'm all over it. Already got +170, +190, and added +180 right about when I posted in this thread about it.

i like the other kid with the chokes

He sounds like the better overall fighter but Ephraim has that level of wrestling that causes jiu jitsu guys problems. The other dude would definitely be the favorite if I were setting a betting line though.

Fairly close 1st round but it went to Ephraim courtesy of top control for the last 2 minutes or so.

Hmm looks like it's Junie that goes over the top of the cage to attack someone.
