Forget about the “Quote of the Day” (no offense to Bloody Elbow!), but this deserves a lot more.

Coming from “The Prodigy“, a member of The MMA Boards in response to episode 11 of the Ultimate Fighter. In this episode, we witnessed a very drunk Jesse Taylor act like “Coco the monkey” as he urinated on himself and attempted to drown himself in the hot tub.

Thank god we have guys who can piss their pants, kick the windows out of limo’s, and completely trash a perfectly good house are here………if it wasn’t for guys like them holding the sport together, a guy like Kimbo would tear it all down.

Well said. Here’s the entire thread … beware of episode 12 rumors/spoilers!

I don’t tolerate crappy fighters. If I think a fighter undertrains, if I think they waste the time and money of the fans then I will say so, but I never thought that I’d type Gina Carano’s name in a piece about those kind of fighters.

Gina is, beyond the shadow of a doubt, the most beloved female fighter in mixed martial arts. People love watching her fight, they love her attitude and her charisma and, let’s face it, she’s a good looking lady, too. Not that that’s the be-all and the end-all in MMA, but it certainly has gotten her alot of fans.

Still, Gina is being given a free pass despite putting on an embarrassing showing for any fighter ranked #1 in their division. If she was in any way a controversial fighter, like Fedor (who’s #1 ranking is being called into question more and more often), she would have been booed from the arena for failing to make weight, and while she won her fight, she didn’t really come into that fight after training like a fighter.

I don’t know if Gina believes she can coast on her talent in this division, and maybe she can. There aren’t very many women in the 140 pound weightclass (any, actually) that can take her on. Still, it’s ridiculous that she would take a three week training camp and then say she’s really ready to fight.
