Shane Carwin and Roy Nelson to coach TUF 16

I liked the 5 or 6 episodes of the Brazil show I caught, weird dudes but talent in the cage. But the whole 4 TUF seasons in one year, more of that too much, but I get it.

That dude with the Mohawk looks insane and I mean Tuco from Breaking Bad insane.

Quote :

“You just got remember that mine and Dana White’s relationship is like were a husband and wife. I do the man’s stuff around the house. I do the fighting, all the man’s stuff and he does all the woman stuff — all the yapping. He’s more the 21st century, he’s the one who goes out and probably makes more money. Where as I might make sure the house is clean, and all that, but at the end of the day I still do the man’s stuff — the lawn, the fighting, all the hard stuff… It’s one of those relationships were there’s love and hate,” Nelson said. “We’re in one of those things like a speed bump. I don’t know if we need a separation from one another.”

I'd be surprised if he's not cut after he loses to Carwin. I don't even know what he's trying to do

Dana's probably eager to cut Roy but the problem is Fatty is very popular with the masses.

I'm not sure he is really that popular.

Kimbo vs Country 2 could do better numbers on network TV then Frankie vs Aldo. How sad is that?

That is sad but a Kimbo special by himself would get more viewers than Aldo and Frankie vs Nelson. Comparing freak shows to MMA fights is apples to oranges.

It's not really that sad when you consider Frankie 99% of time fight for points, Kimbo and Roy always look for the KO.

Frankie is a point fighter now? try again.

It's very sad. People want the freak show factor over quality skill. It is apples to oranges just like GDP said. I was just making a random statement about how sad the general public is.

I call him a movement fighter. How ever you slice it, it's increasingly annoying.

The results of an out-of-competition drug test have cleared heavyweights Roy Nelson (17-7 MMA, 4-3 UFC) and Shane Carwin (12-2 MMA, 4-2 UFC) for their upcoming bout.

MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) requested and recently confirmed the test results with Nevada State Athletic Commission Executive Director Keith Kizer.

Nelson and Carwin headline The Ultimate Fighter 16 Finale, which takes place Dec. 15 at The Joint at Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. The event's main card airs live on FX following prelims on FUEL TV and Facebook.

The fighters were tested for performance-enhancers and diuretics as part of an out-of-competition testing program that was reinstated this past year. Their reps confirmed the out-of-competition test several weeks ago.

Nelson and Carwin, who serve as opposing coaches on "TUF 16" each Friday on FX, recently sparred online over the possibility of additional drug testing. Nelson forwarded to the media a letter asking Carwin to enroll in VADA, an independent, random drug testing program based out of Las Vegas. Carwin and his manager, Jason Genet, questioned whether the firm was truly independent and unbiased, though they didn't dismiss out-of-competition testing.

Genet later said his attempts to work with the Nelson camp to choose another testing program were unsuccessful. Nelson then enrolled in VADA on his own.

Carwin is currently rehabbing a minor knee injury suffered in training for the Nelson fight. He told MMAjunkie.com Radio that he's working with a world-renowned clinic to ensure he's as close to 100 percent as possible.
