Ultimate Fighter 5 + website up!
Spike TV has the Ultimate Fighter 5 website up!
It has bio's of all 16 contestants (the cast includes Gray Maynard, Matt Wiman, Robert Emerson, Nathan Diaz, Noah Thomas, Marlon Sims, Cole Miller, Gabe Ruediger, Brian Geraghty, Brandon Melendez, Andy Wang, Manvel Gambaryan, Corey Hill, Wayne Weems, Alan Berubie and Joe Lauzon).
The NEW SpikeTV.com
I haven't heard of hardly any of these guys but this looks like it could be the best Ultimate Fighter Season yet!

I don't understand the Joe lauzon pick, he beat Jens Pulver in the UFC and this seems like a regression to me. He shoud get a fight without having to go through TUF5!

DO NOT
Under-estimate Nathan Diaz. I pick him as an early favorite. Kid is going to be better than his brother and his boxing is sharper.
And his BJJ?
Foregedda bout it!

TUF5 gives him a lot more exposure. Look what it's done for popular TUF fighters. They are as popular as the biggest names. |

I think Joe Lauzon could take it all, the guys an animal man. And as for him being on the show, I thinks it great. He gets a bunch of exposure and if hes on jens team, he's being coached by someone he KTFO!!! and if he's on penns then he can chirp knowing he KTFO the other teams coach! Win Win situation.

= good ratings. And i used to wonder why lauzon was on the show too but it actually makes sense. If he wins he will get money, sponsors and a MULTI-fight contract. |

Yeah I guess your right TUF isn't just for up and coming guys looking for a break anymore, it's a major show and a good way to get exposure.

I don't think it's any secret that Joe Lauzon is the early favorite. Jens Pulver was a little rusty probably, but Lauzon still dominated him. A win over Pulver will definitely make a fighter the favorite.
I'm excited to see all the LWs fight. This season is definitely shaping up to be the best of them all, and the main event between Pulver/Penn at the finale show should be awesome as well.
