I know there are a fair few MMA fans who read SF but I can't see any thread that discusses the US vs UK TUF so I thought I'd start one.
What do people think of the series so far?
Who do you think will win?
Who's the better coach?
What did you think of Bisping not turning up?
Who do you rate? Who do you not?
Who wins between Bisping and Hendo?
Hopefully we'll have some discussion as I'm currently laid out with a Staph infection and can't train so I need something to keep me occupied!

I'm really enjoying it. There's been some great fights and I've been pleasantly surprised by how well the British guys have been doing. I thought they would struggle because of the American base in wrestling. I was disappointed that Stapleton lost, but at the same time it was nice to see BJJ coming into its own against a very strong and aggressive fighter. I'd like to see Bisping win but I really can't see past Hendo with his wrestling and ground and pound. Oh and get better soon mate!!
Cheers Noel!!
I enjoyed the yanks offering to pay their fighter $100 for every tooth he knocked out of James Wilkes head only to have four of his own smashed in. Talk about poetic justice:D
I also liked the US kid admitting how scared he was and still winning, gives us all hope.
I'm not sure who to go for between Hendo and Bisping I know who I want to win but like you I think he might just get laid on!!

bisping just because i think hendo is a tuff fighter but doesnt take chances, i think bisping will out point him. but it will go to the judges.

I'd like it go that way mate. But I just don't think Bisping will be able to stuff Hendo's takedown. I really hope I'm wrong though!
Real tough one to call for me this one. Hendo out wrestles Bisping every day. Bispings got better BJJ, i understand from a mate whos a blue belt and has had a training session with The Count, and Bisping i think will out strike Henderson. Bisping split decision. Though i suspect i'm a little biased

Are there any websites where I can see the action.... I miss it on TV as I'm in bed.
Aside from the 11pm showing on Virgin1 on Sunday, a repeat is shown on Setanta Sports 2 the following Wednesday at 10pm (not much earlier though).
Can't find any other links on the interent, that don't involve streming of some sort. If your into that, then shouldn't be prob finding them.
