As many of you may be aware, The Ultimate Fighter season six begins tonight on Spike TV. The season will feature 16 welterweights who will be coached by either current UFC welterweight champ Matt Serra or former welterweight champ Matt Hughes. The two have something of a feud going, so I imagine that along with fighter histrionics, the rapport between the two Matts will be quite entertaining as well. </p> Spike TV has moved TUF 6 to Wednesday (a departure from the show's customary Thursday evening time slot.) Tonight's first episode airs at 11 p.m., after UFC Fight Night 11.</p> MMA Madness will be conducting all the exit interviews for TUF 6. We get things started with Crystal Hudson's one-on-one interview with coach Serra, Serra talks about everything from what to expect from TUF 6 to his disdain for Hughes.</p> Here's an interesting excerpt from the interview in which Serra talks about his feelings on the pressures of living in the TUF 6 house and whether rules should be changed to be more lenient on fighters in future seasons:</p> Hell no! Why? What do they want? To be pampered? When I went in there, I looked at that like a six-week training camp. I remember being in the Jacuzzi…it was myself, Pete ‘Drago’ (Sell), Patrick Cote -- I remember having this conversation with Din Thomas. We’re like, you know, there are guys over in Iraq, there’s people in prison. There are people with real problems out there. We got a six week training camp, that every single one of us, regardless of how we’re going to do, we’re going to come out of this experience better fighters. So, it’s like, ‘What’s the problem, man? What? You miss your girlfriend? You miss your dog? What do you miss?’ Give me a break. You can’t use your cell phone? You want to read the paper? I just don’t understand it, myself. There are a lot of guys that would die to be in that house. So the guys that blow it, I just don’t have a ton of respect for. </p> UFC Fight Night 11 airs before TUF 6 tonight, starting at 9 p.m. on Spike TV. The event features a lightweight battle between veteran Din Thomas and former title fighter Kenny Florian in what may determine one of the contestants for a potentially vacated title.</p>
