So is anyone else watching the Ultimate Fighter show on Spike? I caught the marathon finish of the first season, and I've been watching the one-off episodes leading up to the next season as well. I've enjoyed it.

Am I the only one watching this stuff?

I would be watching it, if IF the cable in the motel was working correctly.

Bad enough I had to reply to my own thread to get someone else to reply. :(

I can't stand to waste my time on it. It's a step above "reality TV". A small step.
I don't really care about the "reality tv" aspect. I'm just watching it for the fights.

Sorry, if I want to waste time watching brawlers, I'll head down to the French Quarter any weekend. If I want to see an actual martial arts contest, I'll find one that doesn't hobble the contestants.

Do a reality show about the Kendong, Indonesian death matches, rarely done to the death now but its still bloody and practically no rules. Just in the last decade or so they stopped the blade fights cause they were losing "national treasures" . lol. Had the pleasure of training with some of thos pshycos. Got to love those crazy Indonesians.

Actually, I have seen Ultimate Fighter. I think it's kinda stupid, to be very honest. I don't do the whole reality drama crap. The fights are fun to watch, although what part I saw of the first season was people using mostly dummed down American lukewarm BJJ/Muay Thai/Kyukushinkai/some combination or mix thereof here.

...granted, I grew up with traditionalists *shrug*

On the otherhandc, I never turn down watching grown men beat each other up for a sports contract.
Come, come, whoever you are,

Come even though you have broken your vows a thousand times,
Come, and come yet again.
