K-lovely's Team Rampage Week 2 Blog

This week the show starts out with Team Rampage naturally. Kimbo starts explaining how he is sizing up the competition on the show and the lack of experience he has in fields of MMA. At least he can admit that he has a lot of learning to do. I’m happy to see that the first asshead coming to light is on Team Rashad with Roy. Get over yourself buddy! I liked how the coaches gave it to him straight and told him they feel he is un-coachable and can’t handle criticism. The one thing I can’t stand seeing is coaches babying these guys. It was funny listening to Roy talk about 2 masters and such. Wake up Roy…you’re not a master dip shit! If you were a master your ass would either have a contract already or you would be coaching, not competing on the show. So as Jake the Muss would say “DO WHAT YOUR FUCKEN TOLD!!”

Time to pick the next fight and Rampage goes with Wes Shivers against James Sweeney. Of course Rashad gets his panties in a bunch because Rampage goes after his first pick. I mean he is going to fight any way why cry about what order it’s in. You go Rampage!

Now I would like to make a quick little mention about the little confrontation the coaches had about training time. I feel Rampage was justified at being upset about them in on their time. Rampage did approach him in a civil matter. As he said he is not the cocky one (he is the fine one) and Rashad could have been a man about it and apologized and moved on. To say that Rampage’s guys aren’t going to do anything isn’t his call to make anyway. Especially when his guys were just sitting around rubbing each other’s backs talking about feelings. Give me a break! I can tell you in two words how it feels to lose IT SUCKS! There you go, get your shit and get out of the gym. No need for a team pow wow. If the roles were reversed everyone would be crying & bitching that Rampage is such an asshole and blah blah. HATERS!

Wes Shivers vs James McSweeney
The first round (and only round with real action) both guys come out swinging. Shivers gets McSweeney down but really doesn’t seem to know what to do on the ground but hold him down with his weight. They stand up & McSweeney starts landing some hard leg kicks. Shivers is able to land some hard punches on McSweeney but you can see that Shivers is getting tired. McSweeney tries to land some big punches but the round ends with him getting in leg kicks and slowly chopping the big man down.

They start the 2nd round and both guys look tired. McSweeney continues to land those leg kicks and Shivers is swinging but isn’t landing anything damaging. Shivers catches a leg and takes McSweeney down. Shivers gets him in the mount but can’t finish him. They both get back on their feet and just look at each other. They are exhausted and you can hear Rashad in the background going CRAZY! McSweeney lands a nice kick to the face but it doesn’t do a thing. At the end of the round McSweeney attempts a choke but can’t hold it.

Its announced that a decision has been made so there will not be a 3rd round. By majority decision the winner is James McSweeney. I hate to say it but, this is the most pathetic fight I have ever seen!! Honestly I could expect this out of former NFL player but for Rashad’s #1 pick to be this horrid as well shocked the hell out of me! Especially since he said he has “stand up second to none & would walk all over Wes Shivers.” I think Dana should have walked right in the middle of the fight and told them both to fuck off! He doesn’t need heavyweights coming in that are just going to stand around and play patty cake. Honestly I don’t know how anyone could be happy with this win. Yes in the end Team Rampage lost another one and we are 0-2. I believe Rampage can do it and rally his team together for a victory. Yes, even if that means our first victory comes from Kimbo. My love for Rampage is the only reason why I would root for Kimbo to come out victorious.
