I think he made for a good show on TUF and I admit that I just wanted to see him get his butt handed to him on TUF and against Kaplan for that reason…but then I saw his post-fight response and read several forum posts where most other fighters in his camp had nothing but good things to say about him… and I actually met him in Columbus a couple weeks ago just walking the streets the night b4 UFC and had a conversation with him about what an idiot he was on the show and he was completely cool about it and apologetic.

*I meant…” …since the start of the show a few years ago, Junie gave everyone their moneys worth as well as anyone.”

I agree with the above comment… Junie made great tv… and that’s what the show is about, entertainment. Frank Mir made it very clear that Ultimate Fighter is not at all what the lifestyle and training of an mma fighter is really about, it’s about attracting and entertaining viewers, and since the start of the show a few years ago, Junie gave everyone their moneys worth.

I agree with him about Aoki. I’m a huge fan of Aoki’s, but I could name half a dozen or more UFC lightweights that I think would truck over him on any given day. Junie isn’t one of them though.

Junie made the show worth watching.

Its just entertainment. Allow yourself to be entertained.

Angry Mike, you’d be surprised at how much tail you can get from being a star in a reality TV show.

Junie has a lot on his shoulders. I just want to see him get his face pounded in. Guys like that don’t deserve opportunities like he has. I really do hope he has grown up. I really really really dislike TUF when they display acts like Junie Browning. MMA enthusiasts are always talking about “bad for the sport”. Well TUF contestants don’t display “good for the sport” as a whole. I know they are all different people and each of them has their own issues but still it doesn’t mean that they don’t look like animals on TV when they act like assholes. I love MMA but I seriously could do without the BS childrens play on TUF show.

Junie has sex three or four times per day? Somebody needs to explain to Junie that it doesn’t count if he’s by himself, and then ask if he needs to revise his number.

No excuse for someone to grow up?

I never hated Junie, I did not like how he acted however. The way everyone was on edge when he was in the room and/or drinking, did make it quite uncomfortable even to watch. But given the guidance from Xtreme Couture there is no doubt in the talent he does posses.
I hope for continued improvement and and a tell-all book on how Junie is the love child from Dana back in the day!

I am in the love to hate camp, I can not look past his behavior on the UFC reality show, no excuse for that kind of reckless behavior
