    Koscheck is a high functioning retard. He is almost on Tito's level of being tongue-tied. I find it hard to believe that guy went to college (and GSP didn't).

    I was a little disappointed in the 'brawl'. GSP said he would stick up for his team but he didn't.

    I hope we find out what the paramedic is doing on the show in the first place because Kos's team are totally confused by his presence.

    ^ I didn't think much of Watson in his last fight. I don't think he can take Wilkinson down--however Wilkinson should be exhausted at this point, and banged up, so who knows...

    I agree with your other picks, though.

    When I saw Tito coach against Shamrock he seemed like a really nice guy and a good coach...

    Tito seems to be good to his students but he is dimwitted. Plus he's made a career out of being disrespectful to his opponents.

    According to Andy Main, GSP kicked Brad Tate off the show after the events in the last episode.

    I just noticed that Cody McKenzie is only 22. If he gets serious about his cardio he seems like a pretty talented prospect for a guy who comes across as an un-athletic hard-drinking slacker. I thought Nam was going to destroy him in the standup, but he really didn't. Nam just out-lasted him.

    Brookins is such a badass. Kind of the same flip as he pulled in the first fight. But I don't think anybody saw it coming.

    I love that Koscheck has coached two guys to losses against Brookins' flip/rear naked choke, and another guy who fell for the same guillotine McKenzie beat 11 straight opponents with.

    I hope Kos is just putting on a show. If that is a real reflection of his personality, somebody needs to slap his mama.

    Brookins is a beast. Looks to be a lock to win it all.

    McKenzie was exposed as a one-trick pony but I guess we kind of knew that. GSP's strategy for him won him the first round and might've won him the fight had he been able to keep it up.

    Nam Phan is a good fighter. Well-rounded. I dunno how he will do against Johnson or Brookins, both of them being good wrestlers.

    If English is healthy enough I expect him and Johnson to win next week. Sets up a red vs. yellow semi-finals nicely.

    Considering this is how he acted on TUF 1, how he acts in his fights, and how he acts in interviews... if it isn't his real personality it ain't far from it.

    See, I came away with the exact opposite impression. I think everybody knew McKenzie was a one trick pony before the season even started. GSP certainly did. But he actually won the first round against Nam without using that one trick, and if he'd had anything in the tank after that he probably would've won the second. He was pretty much matching Nam strike for strike and controlling the clinch for the first round, which surprised the hell out of me.

    The problem with him is he just doesn't have any cardio. He got so many quick wins and he's so young he just never bothered developing it. This loss was probably a lot better for him than a win would've been. It showed he might be able to compete at this level if he just works at it.

    If I were Nam I'd be extremely discouraged. Sure he won, but he won it on endurance and not talent. If you told me going into the fight that Cody wouldn't get to use his choke, I would've expected Nam to destroy him in the first round with striking. That guy is 27 and has been striking his whole life.

    As it is, I don't see Nam lasting a round against Brookins or Johnson.
