I predict BJ knocking out Jens Pulver.
I don't really care about Nate and Manny. Looks like Manny is going to win unless Nate pulls a Nick Diaz and a gogoplata over Manny :P.

I think BJ will win by sub, maybe tko via G'n'P, but I don't think he'll KO Jens on the feet. At the same time, I don't think Jens will KO or TKO BJ on the feet without some manner of assisstance (see: BJ's gas tank)
Nate and Manny isn't that interesting to me either. I'm a Nick Diaz fan, he's always exciting, but Nate dosen't have the tools yet, maybe in a year or two but he shouldn't be here yet. How did manny get on the show anyway, he hasn't fought in a few years and Dana himself said he gave him no chance as he was so small...do they even screen the competitotrs or just let them walk on?! Corey had NO pro fights and lied about it, yet that wasn't discovered until he admitted it. 3 guys got kicked off for fighting, Gabe never made weight, this has been a rather disappointing season over all. Next season should be 'TUF 6: Pride' featuring all the excess pride fighters they signed. Coaches=Giant Silva and Butterbean (j/k)

I watched Bad Blood the other night and BJ got a trainer/nutritionist coach. He's also preparing for the stand up. I hear Jens has a glass jaw... but I wouldn't test it out for myself <.<;;
Ya, I think part of choosing who gets on the show has to do with what the production company thinks will look good. Ya, some of those guys really shouldn't be there. They should either randomly choose people with no pro record, or only people with pro records.
Hey, is Nick still around? Last I saw of him he beat Takanori Gomi and got suspended for fighting high. (I think he would have lost that match if he wasn't high BTW.)

Jens didn't seem to like the hits on the button tonight, he seemed hurt real early in one of the initial exchanges, maybe it was just his reflex, I personnally haven't seen him fight to much, not sure of his mannerisms. So maybe there is some truth to a weak chin.
Nick is still around, he got suspended for the THC in his system after the Gomi fight, hence why he couldn't corner Nate tonight. Also he refused to appear on the show himself like Karo and the other guest coaches had, which I can see as the show really is taking spots away from good seasoned fighters and giving them to relative new comers. You need new blood, but not at the cost of loosing sure thing exciting, skilled fighters.

Tonight was strange:lol: Manny gets his solder dislocated and loses and Emerson taps out after Gray knocked himself out so it was a no contest.

I really liked the fights last night. I wish Pulver would have won. He looked a bit scared, and totally unprepared for the fight.

Sucks for Manny, and I think Gray should have won... in fact, Emerson was lucky it wasn't a doctor stop. I like both fighters alot and Emerson is a funny dude.

Weird fights some where honestly lets downs...especially with Manny I think he would have torn him apart, damn shoulders.

well, there is always the possibility of a no contest ruling by Alamo when dealing with the Diaz brothers. -_-;
