Everyone of you are correct. I cannot tell you how bad Rampages team wanted to be coached by our coaches. These fights your watching now happend around week 2. So, they had 5 more weeks of Rampage being and ass to them. I will say this Rampage did care about Scott Junk but that was about it or so I was told in the house. They hated training so much that most of them didnt practice they sat around for two 2 hours practices doing nothing or lifting weights. But, Rampage could not get off Kimbos nuts.

I was wondering last night, gosh is Team Rampage EVER going to win one? No slam to the guys on his team but Rampage's coaching is just abysmal. I found myself asking out loud- wow, I wonder if Rampage will even win one? Then I remembered that Rashad has Greg Jackson, and Rampage is too busy giving Kimbo a tonguebath to think about the other guys on his team. Of course he's not going to win one. Edub, I agree!

I would like to see Kimbo come back and fight the British guy Rashad is in love with though, as that could be a good stand up fight.

Itd be funny because there would be no need for Rampage to be on the show anymore. Oh, and Demico Rogers definately deserves to come back into the tournament over Kimbo if an injury happens.

My criticism over Rashad has always been the manner of showmanship, it would seem that is indeed a show, where Quiton is all and only what we see. In his case, I really don't like what I see.

He obviously doesn't care at all about his fighters, and dumping his guy and not prepare him for his fight over going out to eat is disrespectful to say the least. On the other hand I never really understood why so many people hate Rashad Evans. There's times he's acted a little cocky but overall he seems like a decent guy. I personally thought that he was genuine in his concern over Marcus Demico, and I couldn't agree more with him on the comments he made after the fight. Rashad showed nothing but class in my books here and deserves far more credit than he receives. Maybe training with GSP has rubbed off on Evans in a good way.

It seems we saw what we saw, and what we saw is what was. I don't know how anyone can defend Quinton. Yes, he's a fighter, not a coach. Well, he was a fighter. Now he's an actor. Now he's an actor who was a fighter who said he was so game to fight Rashad that he was ashamed of his own dark imaginings of what he wanted to do to Rashad. But now he's an actor. Look, I think if you talk that much, if you self promote that much, that death itself, let alone any money making opportunity cannot dissuade you from the cage. If you talk as much as Quinton has, you show up for your fight as a zombie if need be. Rashad bugs me with his own self hype and showboating. But, uh, he shows up. Rashad shows up early, stays late, and is simply a better man on the show than Quinton. Neither men are coaches by career, but they both said they would coach these men, and only Rashad has coached effectively. So I guess this isn’t about editing?

That could be taken as a bit insulting. There are a few very talented fighters in the sport who clearly are not fighting for the money. Two of them happen to be current champions. While I'm certainly not comparing a very green Marcus Jones to either of them, they do show that you don't have to be a starving athlete to take your sport seriously or have a burning desire to compete. With that said Brendon looked great under fire, and we look forward to your first fight as well. This season looks like it might produce some good Heavyweights we'll all enjoy watching compete for years to come.
