I suppose I will stick with the UK fighter and take Brendan Loughnane.

haha although I am on the Oz team its hard not to like The Freakshow. He doesnt have a typical fighter personality & he ain`t half bad at fighting either. Those knees in the clinch were solid & that reverse guillotine thing he had Ben caught in was unique! The fight was pretty good but the rest of the episode was sorta slow. The teams messed with the coach portraits (as usual) & George & Ross tried to talk shit.. which turned out to be very flat.. both dudes are just too nice haha can`t wait for next weeks episode

Fletcher did look good, he used his length well, good striking and good grappling. Team Aussie defo under estimated him.

He's got an interesting frame for 155. Similar to Jon Jones at 205. Long reach (with his arms and legs), tall and pretty skinny. Those knees he was able to hit in the clinch against the fence were nasty. A lot of guys can't do that. Like I said when they announced the cast, I see him winning for the Lightweights. There's a guy on Team Aussie that I think has a decent chance at beating him but that'll probably end up being the finals.
The guy I'm talking about is Richie Vaculik

I just finished watching it. Luke came in with HUGE shots. That could have easily gone the other way. Beautiful overhand right though to end things off

Im enjoying both, there seems to be more heat on TUF 16 though between the fighters in the house.

Brutal, George112 brutilizes cowcatcher, I personally felt the fight should have been stopped, cowcatcher was bleeding all over the place.
The theme continues across both versions of TUF, the coach picking the fight loses, got to be some of the worst match making we've ever seen on TUF.
-Norman Parke (16-2), 25, Bushmills, Northern Ireland (lightweight) - george112 beats -Richie Vaculik (9-1), 29, Sydney (lightweight) - cowcatcher UD

Boy, was I wrong about Vaculik. Brits have the LWs and Aussies have the WWs so far.
Those elbows at the end of the 2nd round were nasty. I thought it was going to get stopped as well.
The fights on this version of tuf have been infinitely better than tuf 16. The guys on the show are more interesting as well. Freakshow is growing on me more and more as the weeks go by

goddamnit!!! just watched the latest episode & the video suddenly stops at the end of the first round 
I assume from your posts that TheAussie LW doesn't score an upset KO in the 2nd. haha Overall a pretty bland episode.. the Aussie team goes for a jog on the beach & the UK team cleans the kitchen..........

shaneTpain ruthlessly slams JLS1980 on his head before sinking in a choke. Any one else finding Pearson's constant wining annoying, not keen on him or George as a coach but I certainly prefer George.
Manuel Rodriguez (9-3), 27, Sydney (welterweight) - shaneTpain beats Bola Omoyele (6-1), 30, London (welterweight) - JLS1980 by rd1 North South choke.

I'm feeling the opposite to be honest. I like Pearson as a coach and George isn't coming off well to me.
That was a weird fight. Bola was beating him everywhere and then the slam took everything out of him. Aussies 3-0 in the Welterweight division. It would be crazy if all the UK Lightweights won and all the Welterweight Aussies won.

WOWWWW! Just finished the latest episode fellas! I was convinced Manny would lose. The episode was highly focused on the UK team (volleyball/food fight, swmming/freakshows ass, concussed dude wanting to quit) & the UK team member set to fight was given much more camera time in earlier episodes. I wasn't even sure what my guy looked like until episode 4 when he was first interviewed. haha So you can imagine how surprised I am that he won it. & in spectacular fashion. That slam was brutal & to follow up with a slick sub finish was genius! haha well maybe i'm just a little biased 
PS: I also agree with Budge that its very likely the UK Lightweights will sweep and all the Welterweight Aussies will advance. haha Wouldn't that be funny

I real feel for Manny, that guy has a ton of heart, I hope he gest a fight in the UFC once his leg fixs.
As Manny drops out shaneTpain automatically gets his replacement, James Vainikolo.
Now on to the fight, FF47 win by decision ove the young kid that no one picked. I personally agreed with the decision. Brendan Loughnane did more damage at the end of rd 1 then Patrick Iodice during the whole of that round and Brendan dominated rd2. So far the UK have 3 LW's and Aussie have 3 WW's. Thats crazy LOL.

I agree with the decision too. Patrick really didn't do much and he's clearly got a lot going on in his head that only experience can help him with. It sucks that Manny had to go. That's a nasty leg kick.
The guy replacing Manny is an okay fighter. 8-4 with wins over mostly .500 or below guys.
I'm looking forward to next week's episode.

Agreed. Freakshow is easily my favourite person in the house and my pick for LW winner since day one. Hopefully he can pull it off. I like his chances over the other two uk guys who have made it so far.
