The TUF 20 Fantasy League - General Discussion & Analysis (Registered Players Only!!)

Funny you should mention voodoo and The Tiny Tornado together, because Magana told Helwani that she has some of her opponent's (now revealed to be Tecia's) clothing (from the TUF house) so that she can become "one" with her in order to defeat her (or some such voodoo-sounding malarky).

Pretty borderline, Jason Delucia painted a picture for Bas Rutten and signed it with his own blood and put some voodoo shit on it in an effort to up his chances of winning back in Pancrase.
 
for me, it was rose's only way to win. i just didn't see rose being better in any form, other than her submission techniques...then she goes out and wins a round vs. jo jo! :eek: credit to rose, her improvement is obvious. :)

if there is a rematch, i'm taking jo jo...and i think jo jo will be champion...sadly, just not the first one. :icon_sad:

You think Jojo could beat strong wrestlers like Esparza or Jag?

I don't think so, Jojo looked physically bigger than Rose and Rose was able to use technique to scramble and throw a bunch on subs on her.
 
Question: Are the semi final matches scheduled for the full 3 rounds, or is it still 2 rounds plus the 3rd only if tied?

Semi-final fights should be full 3 rounds like the previous seasons, so try not to bet on "Round 2 Decision" this week! :D
 
Is next week the final week or will the title fight at at the TUF Finale be it?

The SW title fight at the Finale is the last fight on the tournament bracket.

That means there are 6 more points next Wednesday, and 3 more points at the Finale next weekend. Goodluck, folks!
 
And Im 3 points behind. Gonna have to get all 3 perfect and hope one of the 3 above me get a pick wrong.

I think we will see Carla and Rose in the finals. Just got to pick how they win perfect. And if that happens I see Carla taking it.

JoJo already beat Killer Bunny, and she has some of the best wrestling in the division. She even escaped a few submission attempts. I don't personally put a lot of stock in TUF losses, there's too many factors... short weight cuts, quick fight turnarounds, no hometown coach. Jojo will fight for the belt next year.

Jojo was a shell of herself because of the weight cut. This is the ONLY reason Rose won. It's the only reason Penne beat Aisling also. My "small fighters can't compete" theory will be proven true in real fights that count.


*nyah, nyah, nyah* *I CAN'T HEAR YOU!*

*STARTS DRINKING AGAIN*
 
The UFC announced six undercard fights for the Ultimate Fighter 20 Finale on Wednesday -- including one surprise debut.

Tecia Torres will take on Angela Magana
Joanne Calderwood fights newcomer Seo Hee Ham
Felice Herrig meets Lisa Ellis
Angela Hill faces Emily Kagan
Aisling Daly takes on Alex Chambers
Bec Rawlings fights Heather Jo Clark.

Jesus, these are all mismatches. So easy to pick. I've bolded my choices, anyone who picks otherwise must be nuts.

The theme continues from TUF 20: the SW ranking gets sorted out, and we'll get to see the top-tier fighters faces each other on later PPV/FOX cards.

That being said, most TUF 20 alumni should perform better at the Finale than they did on the show, now that they have real preparation and away from the house drama. The UFC just release the match-up to the general public now, but the ladies have probably been busy training this past two months for their designated opponents, with a few counter game plans according to what they have observed from the show. Don't be surprise if the results turn out to be different than what you're expecting :)

Agree on everything except Clark and Ellis winning. Christ Severian, how have you STILL managed to pick Heather Clark?!?

Felice Herrig against Lisa Ellis is an interesting one. Will Lisa perform better than she did on the show? Was she experiencing ring rust and home sickness? Will Felice's gym rat lifestyle show better BJJ? Both of these girls are on the downsides of their careers, one may likely retire with a loss.

the only REAL strawweight fights there are Tecia/Magana and Bec/Clark

otherwise its just the UFC trying to weed out the atomweights

I agree. I just don't understand why they would sign Seo Hee Ham just to kill her by feeding her to a giant angry Scottish woman.

me neither, I guess record padding to build future title challengers,

since it really will only take like 2 maybe even 1 victory to earn a title shot.

They need to end her win streak so she can fight a can when they go to Korea so she picks up a spectacular win. Next level mind games.

If not that I've got nothing :icon_lol:
 
Have you guys already forgotten how many 125'ers the UFC signed for sole purpose of feeding the BW during the first year?

Expect more notable Atomweights to be signed in the not-so-distance future for the same task, and if history repeat itself, most will flame out spectacularly, while an elite few will thrive and emerges as contenders in their new division after they put on some muscles.

Before these were announced, Angela Magana tweeted that whoever was getting Lisa Ellis would be getting an easy layup win.
