http://sherdog.com/news/news/spike-tv-reveals-tuf-9-cast-16503 The fight with Dan and Bisping should be cool, but is it just me or didn't they just have lightweights? They could have done WW and HW's for a change of pace.
They need to do HW's. That is the division that is lacking the most. They need new names in the HW division.
for sure, they have done so many ww and mw that its waaayyyy oversaturated. For what I can remember, they have done one HW, Rashad won it and moved to 205:: that did wonders for the division
Their heavyweight division is looking better than it has in some time. The old guard is finally being phased out, and new fighters like Lesnar, Velasquez, Carwin, and Dos Santos are the names of the present and the future. TFK
I posted something similar in another thread, but I would still have rather seen HW's on this cast rather than just the same ol', same ol'.
I'd guess they stay away from heavies because the fight quality is usually better at lighter weights. The Season 2 heavies were all pretty terrible. TFK
The HW's of season two were pretty horrible. But come on, I can find decent HW's at several gyms right here in the NW with guys just dying for a shot. Season 2 had a bunch of big sloths, what they needed to get was more guys like Rashad, a bit smaller, but more athletic.
