The Ultimate Fighter has once again commenced and let me tell you I am super excited for this season! The first episode was the preliminary bouts to decide who got into the house. Every single fight delivered in some way which has not happened on the ultimate fighter in some time. There was tons of action packed into a 2 hour premiere along with a boat load of Dana White profanities and boring back stories from the fighters. All in all I believe the first show was a great success and i would have paid money to see many of those fights on ppv so that makes me all warm and fuzzy inside ;)
Episode 2 begins and Mayhem an Bisping are tasked with selecting their teams. After a interestingly long coin toss, which turned into an awkward coin roll, Bisping wins the choice to pick the first fighter or the first fights (bantam and feather) and he chooses first fighter (this makes mayhem happy). Teams are selected and both coaches are happy with the choices they have made
