Nice post. I totally agree with you.

I think they should just do away with everything else and show Roman the whole time. I feel bad for him, but damn that guy cracks me up. I was almost in my floor rolling when he was at the doctor.

"I am no poossy."

The tide is turning! What's with all these rational Hughes posts?

I think they've put something in the corn. I had a nice roasted ear at the county fair and then next day I woke up pulling for Hughes.

I went looking for his outburst on youtube but couldn't find it yet.

"I don't need to see your diplomas, I know your a wiseguy" LOL

"I not trying to be A-Hole, I really a nice guy"

He will definately be on TUF finale I have no doubt

What would Roman say? I tink he iss a poossy!

Seriously, I don't think Scarola wants to fight again, and he's afraid that someone will drop out and he'll be back. He showed no heart in that fight, and the ending seemed to be exactly what Serra was expecting.

He should have decked the doc with his broken arm to show he meant it.

It didn't strike me as funny, more like totally irrational. He's a guy who's all emotion. Fighting in the octagon with a broken arm, talk about ridiculous. No one would condone that. One thing for sure, we will be seeing more of Roman.

Mutant · 09-21-2007, 11:08 AM

What about that guy that was Hughes first pick? That guy sounds like a lunatic... "Matt Hughes sees God in me."

I think that Mitichyan knew that he would NEVER be allowed to fight with a broken elbow. In my view of it, Mitichyan just wanted the cameras and the audience and especially Dana White to know just how badly he (Mitichyan) wanted to fight for the UFC.

As you stated, we will see Roman Mitichyan again after this season of TUF and after he has healed. Whether he does well or not remains to be seen. He reacted like that to send a message. And, I would have done the same, except I would have been nicer to the doctor. The doctor, after all, did not break the elbow and he did not want to do anything bad to Mitichyan.

Don't kill the messenger, LOL.

I disagree. I don't think he was acting. He was angry and overly emotional, and took it out on the doctor.

You could be right. But, this is reality TV. The drama has become the center. I would not be surprised, if the producers actually asked Mitichyan to provide an emotional outburst. If this happened without cameras and all of that mess, then it would be a totally different story.

I read the fighter bios on TUF6 website, and Roman's replacement seemed like he had a decent fighter resume together and he looks in good shape. Maybe Serra got luck with this one.

I agree about serras impression of hughes but he himself is getting carried away with it, probably for the 'good' of the show in his mind.

That's Hughes for you. Either he rubs you the wrong way or he doesn't.

I respect his fighting accomplishments, no doubt but I don't care for him. The frat boy jock guy who laughs-at-his-own-jokes guy - nah not for me.

I have no problem with Serra sticking up for Royce and calling out the trainer who doesn't even fight. I've said it before - Serra's a little much but he grew on me. I'm from NY so I know plenty of dudes like him (for better or for worse).

I doubt it. You must be a hopeless optimist.

Oh yeah, that guy needs help.

The clip we've seen in the promos where Serra says something like "I gotta go kick a bitch off this team"... my guess would be that he's talking about his bestman, Joey Joe-Joe Scarola.

And another fight at the house too.
Let's see if they get the same treatment as Sims and that Noah...

hughes doesnt seem like TOO much of a dick so far.

serra is the man.

hughes doesn't seem like a dck, but then there is editing. seems like Serra is the one doing all the complianing, but that aside, he is a good coach and i like the way he believes in his fighters.

Did he ever blow out his bicep?

RO3434 · 09-21-2007, 10:19 PM

i still chuckle every time i think or read about that guy. i hope to see him get his shot.

Don't forget, Sub thinks this is all scripted beforehand.

Jawshattera · 09-22-2007, 01:13 AM

roman wasnt acting, this isnt pro wrestling.

btw if serra lets his emotions get ahead of his decisions like he did in the first episode he will have no chance against hughes and his team
