Yeah, the last TUF class was very weak. Like fullonshred said, Speer is just not ready for the UFC and he made the final where he was thoroughly dominated by a 155'er (Danzig). Danzig is the only guy from that show who I think has an immediate future in the UFC and that's at 155 and I don't think he's going to be much more than a gatekeeper. Speer may develop into a good MMA fighter as he is still very young, has a good chin (unless Johnson broke it), and has a good wrestling base - it's just that his standup is beyond raw, it's nonexistent.
