A heads up - this Thursday, there is 2 back-to-back TUF espiodes running from 10pm-12am on SpikeTV. They will do all 3 semifinals that night, so it's a pretty big night. .

What about next week Thursday, before the UFN (Ultimate Fighter Night) on 24th? They're going to re-run the same espiodes mentioned above. Not sure why they're doing this.

On Satursday the 24th, they'll do a TUF marathon all day, before the UFN card itself. I checked the guide, it looks like UFN is going to be 3 hours long.

Did Tito take Matt Hamill under his wing as he said he would? Looks like he did - check out this pix:

The above pix was labeled "Training camp" - Tito training for his fight against Ken Shamrock on Juluy 8th. This is the Tito's new "Team Punishment". Awesome eh?

Matt Hamill is there, among with Kendall and Solomon "What Happened? Who Won?" Hutcherson (yup, the whole stupid "Team Dagger" thing). You can also see one more pix of Kendall and Hamill in Tito's myspace here

Looking forward to the next few weeks.. the TUF semifinals night, the UFN live card, then UFC PPV!
 
Cool pic. Matt joined Tito's team? Matt used to working with Jorge Gurgle (fomer TUF2) and Rick Franklin. That would be nice if Matt join Tito's Team Punishment cuz Tito was cool guy I met at Mohegan Sun Casino for UFC events...and Matt would help his team to be bettet takedown team.

Yesh about TUF Live...Matt should be there. We will find out more after this thursday. Only one figher I dont wanna to see is Noah who gave up and left from TUF to be with 3 months girlfriend. I knows nice romance guy but just 3 months?! Come on, Noah. LOL

I wonder did UFC host at Philly or Wash DC... I noticed UFC always host small arena or under casino hotel such as MGM Grand or Moheang Sun Casino... Why is that?

Most likely DC and Maryland bans any UFC style aka MMA (Mixed Martial Arts)...and there got more than 10 states that bans.

Connecitcut banned any UFC stuffs aka MMA but CT can't touch anything with Indians Reservation's Mohegan Sun Casino where UFC host there few times. I attended all of UFC there...yeeeaaaa better than PPV!...cuz live people and chance to meet the fighters. Tito Ortiz, Chuck Liddell, Randy Couture and Matt Hughes that I met. Awesome experinced!

Closer to you? That is Atlantic City, NJ as UFC host there sometimes and also other MMA took the place there, too. Recently, Trump Plaza host IFL
( www.ifl.tv/ ) there few weeks ago.
 
I just watched some of IFL last week on FSN channel (just learned FSN shows PRIDE highlights too.. I officially love PRIDE now!).

IFL is an awesome concept, but they need to get more exciting fighter and more well-known fighters onboard. It would be awesome if the MMA world pits Ken Shamrock against Tito Ortiz yet again in IFL, using their fighters (Lion's Den vs Team Punishment) ;)

One can only dream...
 
That's interesting, given I've heard Matt just relocated to the Hartford, CT area.

Matt is more of a fighter. I don't think he wants to wrestle. I would not want to wrestle for something that is fake. I want to fight for something that is real.
 
Matt Hamill to fight on 28th for sure!

Not sure if it will be televised though.. it should be considering Matt Hamill brought SpikeTV high TV ratings.

TUF Finale card:

Sam Stout v Kenny Florian
Bisping v Josh
Kendall v Ed
Jardine v Gouveia
Ross v Rory
Danny v Kalib
Luigi Firavanti v Solomon Hutcherson
Jesse Forbes v Matt Hamill


Hamill will win by pure, total, 100% dominance.. Jesse's a restler too but Hamill is like magnitudes better.

That's the fight card for June 28th? Source? And by the way...28th lies on a Wednesday... were you referring to the UFN on the 24th? (Saturday)

Sorry, my mistake. I meant to say the 24th. I slipped out 28th because UFC has another event planned on that date as well, but it's not the Ultimate Fighter Finale night.

Dude, look at the 2 posts above yours.

Sorry, I wasn't able to edit the 24th/28th typo. I'm aware there are two different events.
 
I heard Matt got kicked out and no one told him until he showed up. :eek:

Lots of discussion about that on Sherdog forums.

He's not really kicked out per se.. he's placed on suspension by NSAC (Nevada State Athletic Comission) due to injuries.

Anyone who experience concussion from a fight is automatically put on suspension for at least 10 days (if I understand it correctly).

As to why no one told him.. there's some theories being discussed on Sherdog..

Maybe they cannot say anything at the hospital due to secretive nature of the taped show.. don't want the doctor to leak the info out to outsiders or something like that.

Maybe he went to the hospital on his own and came back to the gym directly.. therefore no contact with anyone who would have told him the news.

Maybe he's already told the news.. but simply forgot.. he was having memory problems due to concussion.

No one knows except Hamill and TUFers ;) That would make for a great interview question.. "How could you not know until you arrive at the gym?" and see what he says ;)

Regardless, I think it made for great TV when he arrived back. Bisping's facial expression was priceless.. "Um.. how do we break this news to him?"
