TUF SEASON 7:thoughts?

the fights have kind of sucked to me.

Thankfully we get to see Dante Rivera "fight" again. Throw a punch and hug, the John Ruiz of MMA, except I guess you can't say there's only John Ruiz of MMA.

The best part of this season has been that DEA show after which is crazy how they go from a street buy to drug lords every episode. This week the guy was undercover, crazy stuff.

I agree Rivera dumbed that fight down but Brandon Sene didnt' have the versatility to win I think he is used to winning on conditioning. This next fight should be good Jeremy May and I have trained with the same trainers so i know he's well rounded. but Mac Brown looks like he has solid stand up where May goes off alot of talent.

Wow, these guys are not impressive.

Maybe its just me but it seems like the talent level's much lower than ever.

Like last night, that May guy fakes an injury, doesn't even train and what do you know gasses out after like 30 seconds. And the guy he was fighting Matt Brown, who was made out to be some kind of badass looked ordinary at best, he just wasn't as bad (or out of shape) as May.

Then the second fight was a straight up toughman brawl, period. I mean it was fun in its own way but those are not skilled fighters at all.

TUF is what it is. I've always said that its purpose is to find young raw talent to infuse the UFC with names that its less informed fans can relate to. That being said since the first season the talent has definately dropped off. Not counting the veteran season the last three have had only 1-2 guys that have the tools for the UFC. It is a good marketing tool but Dana and the crew need to find better fighters
