T-Dubb: The Ultimate Fighter 11 Week 1

It’s that time again for a new season of TUF, and this time around, the season shows promise of being interesting and not filled with puss boys. It’s just the first episode, and we still need to see how they handle training, but these fights were brutal and exciting to watch. There was blood everywhere, shoulders popping out of sockets, broken eye sockets, and the worst shattered nose ever. Besides the French guy, everyone stuck it out and took a beating from their opponent. There was no dancing around the octagon trying to hold hands. There was actual engagement from the start.

So far, only Noki is on my attraction radar, mainly because he has an accent, so that automatically puts him on my fave list. There are few maybes, but I’ll have to wait to see how they act in the next few episodes. There’s always one person that quickly makes it to my “Cannot Stand List”, and right now it’s Jaime Yager. He can kick the hell out of his opponent, but I smell issues from a mile away, so roomies beware.

Seems like it’s up in the air as to who will dominate this season. The guys came out ready for war and they did not disappoint. Dana looked like a fat kid in the candy store, and you can tell that Chuck and Tito were ready to pluck guys from the ring and put them in their jerseys.

Speaking of Chuck and Tito, they were great coaches before, and I know that they will not disappoint us this season. So many people can’t stand Tito, but being cocky doesn’t make you a bad person, just big headed. I thought Tito was one of the best coaches this show has had, because he actually cared and made his guys work. Chuck’s just great no matter what. He can just sit there and do an amazing job.

Sorry for being short, but it’s only week 1. The fights were great for this first episode, but everything can change once they’re in the house. They were just fighting to get in and impress the coaches, now they have to show what they are really made of from start to finish. I’m sure there is at least one puss boy left, cause there’s always one in the house, and then a few guys who just don’t measure up to expectation.

So we’ll pick up again next week. Don’t forget to set your DVR for next week on Spike.
