Ultimate Fighter: US vs. UK

[drift9]

I was just curious: is this airing over in the UK at all? The new season of Ultimate Fighter?

[SlavikSvensk]

wait, so is the season actually defined as US vs. UK?

[drift9]

yeah, it's a team of US fighters coached by Dan Henderson (US) vs. a team of UK fighters coached by Michael Bisbing (UK). At the end of the season Hendo and Bisbing will fight it out as well. Pretty great concept. Only one episode so far but already looking good.

I like Bisping a lot, but Hendo's going to wipe the floor with him. Bisping has improved markedly, but he's not a knockout artist, which is what he'd need to be in order to win this fight, IMO. Dan Henderson has the massive edge in experience and strength, and he's not punchy like Wanderlei.
