The Ultimate Fighter 7 recap – episode 6

May
7

After watching 6 complete seasons of “The Ultimate Fighter” I have learned two things.

If the fight begins around the 43rd minute of the hour, the fight is going the distance. If the fight begins before the 30 minute mark, we are getting treated to a two fight episode.

Such is the case in week 6 of TUF7.

Because we are nearing the end of the opening round of fights, we know that Matt Brown and Jeremy May are going to square off. Matt Brown has it out for Jeremy May ever since May put lime juice in Matt Brown’s chew.

Everyone on Matt Brown’s team will vouch for the fact that he is a complete bad ass.

Amir Sadollah says:

“I am going to predict that Matt brown is going to win by….. murder”

Nick Klein comments:

You don’t know what he is thinking, you don’t know how he is feeling. Once in a while he will come out and say some things and they are usually pretty manly.

The quiet, yet intense, Matt Brown lets the viewer in on some events that have went on in his personal life which may have led to the development of his rough and rigid character.

“I used to get in a lot of trouble as a kid. I went to jail a few times. I’ve had some brushes with death. There was a lot of street fights. A lot of drugs, a lot of alcohol. You can definitely say that boxing and MMA really changed my life for the better.”

After watching TUF the past few weeks, I have grown to become annoyed with Jeremy May. He seems pompous and arrogant and generally gets on my nerves. In this episode we get a full dose of Jeremy May. In episode 6 I am not as much annoyed with him as I am amused. Jeremy May plays mind games with everyone in the house. I can’t describe the psychological games he plays in the house without giving them away, but I will let you know that I was pretty entertained with his antics.

The second fight of the night will prove to be one the biggest slug fest yet, and I found myself thinking over and over … “when is this going to end?”.

Both bouts are hard fought, and one ends in one of the cooler knockout in TUF history. Make sure you tune in and check it out.

The Ultimate Fighter 7 airs Wednesdays on SpikeTV at 10PM EST.

    Either Jeremy May is really a pompous “p-word”, or he’s playing it up because he knows it sells.

    Either way he showed (against Brown) that he can’t live up to the legend in his own mind. He fights like a hack when it comes to the caliber needed to fight in the UFC. That fight against Brown was lame—both of them. Considering May went down like a chump, it would make him super lame.

    May is not UFC material so the only way he’s going to be able cash in on his fleeting fame is by turning his moment in the spotlight into a spectacle ala WWE and Vince McMahon.

    Could anyone be that annoying? If that’s the real Jeremy May then he’s a pathetic human being who can talk the talk but can’t walk the walk. Just go away, May!

    Personally, I think there is a bit of Vince McMahon in Dana White and UFC creates a lot melodrama to sell tickets. Do you ever notice how the main event fighters will claim to hate each others’ guts and talk trash but hug, smile and go drink beers after the hyped fight is over?
