The Ultimate Fighter Season 1 Participant Assessments

Now that all the fighters from “The Ultimate Fighter” season 1 have fought someone outside the show (Diego Sanchez made his UFC debut last Saturday, defeating Brian Gassoway by brutal second round knockout), it’s time to evaluate each one’s prospects at succeeding in the world of mixed martial arts.

While I believe that only two contestants have a realistic shot at winning a championship and two others have the potential to be top contenders, expect to see practically every fighter on this list hovering around MMA for at least another year or two.

I will start from the bottom (worst) and work my way up, including only the fighters that displayed some degree of merit during the series and subsequent UFC shows;

Chris Leben:

For whatever reason, I wanted to see this dyed red hair bed wetter succeed in all his matches.

With the exception of the Jason Thacker pasting, Leben disappointed me each and every single time, demonstrating a thorough inability to defeat even the most one-dimensional and limited of opponents.

In Josh Koschek, he fought a wrestler with horrible standup and mediocre submissions, a foe that was looking to take his opponent down and nothing else. I thought Chris would expose Josh’s laughable defensive stance standing up or catch him with a blow on a leg shoot.

Nope.

Against Kenny Florian, Leben faced a passive, inexperienced MMA (record of 1-1 before entering the show!) practitioner mediocre in every aspect of fighting; submissions, wrestling, and striking. However, Florian did have a tough chin and a very good elbow shot.

That was enough to open up a geyser of blood over Leben’s entire face.

In Patrick Cote, Chris fought a guy tailor-made for even the Crippler’s limited, crude attack. (Congratulations to Joe Silva, Zuffa’s matchmaker, for finding such a guy after weeks of searching) Cote had no wrestling and submission skills to speak of, standup technique and skills of the negative variety, but impressive punching power. Surely Chris would dominate such a guy, right?

Well, Chris proved he was exactly the same as Cote, and will certainly be destroyed against any half-respectable grappler or striker in the future.

Kenny Florian:

While he isn’t horrible at any part of fighting, the Boston native isn’t proficient in anything either. He can neither box, grapple, nor submit anyone who he will be fighting henceforth in the UFC. Florian is passive and seems to fight in a state of suspended animation; wait until Diego rushes me and has me on the ground before attempting any resistance.

Much of this can be attributed to his very late start in mixed martial arts and his small number of matches, all against limited competition before being on TUF. However, I doubt Kenny will get the necessary time to slowly progress, and will be thrown to the sharks much too soon.

Stephan Bonnar:

Why do I have this guy here?

Well, for one, he is one of the easiest possible fighters to sweep on the ground; Sam Hoger survived against Bonnar and even had him in serious trouble, all because of the American Psycho’s inability to do anything against the sweep.

By itself, this problem wouldn’t be so bad. However, despite being a Golden Gloves champ, Bonnar’s standup striking is shockingly poor. It’s questionable if he even beat Bobby Southworth in this regard.

While Bonnar is one tough son-of-a-bitch with an iron chin and demonstrated impressive ability to escape submission against both Swick and Hoger, he excels in neither standup nor the ground.

Expect him to beat a lot more guys via decision before finally running into either a dangerous striker or wrestler that beats him to a pulp.

Forrest Griffin:

Griffin has some of the most polished, clean punches and knees of any fighter on The Ultimate Fighter 1 in addition to good wrestling prowess.

Griffin’s problem is that he gets hit far too easily. Even against Hoger, Forrest was absorbing high kicks that would well have knocked him out had they been thrown properly. Griffin’s fights are entertaining as hell, but that’s because he gives opponents a chance at victory through Forrest’s reckless abandonment of any semblance of defense.

Raise your hands higher, cover your chin, cover your ribs, and move around a little more!

Unlike the previous fighters, Griffin has the most correctable flaws, although I still don’t think he ever becomes a top contender.

Expect to see him in a lot of exciting, close fights against second-rate competition….like Stephen Bonnar!

Mike Swick

How could I possibly rate this guy so high? Losing to Bonnar AND Leben by stoppage?!

While I haven’t seen the Leben KO, the fight against Stephen was completely one-sided in favor of Swick, who almost got a choke and landed some flush shots before putting himself in a bad position where Bonnar executed an armbar.

However, his dismantling of the previously undefeated Alex S. and Gideon Ray was extremely impressive, as Swick showed excellent, fast, combination punching in both affairs, a quality that will carry him far against the grappler-saturated UFC middleweight division.

His failings in terms of submission defense are very correctable. Expect to see this fighter contending in the Middleweight division before too long.

Josh Koschek:

As mentioned earlier, Koschek is an excellent wrestler and little else. Were he to fight at Middleweight, he would be below Bonnar in my rankings. However, fighting in the weaker UFC Welterweight class, which has just seen the departure of Frank Trigg, and has the world’s best (BJ Penn) fighting in Pride, Josh’s future looks bright.

His wrestling style is tailor made for the vast majority of guys in this division, and I doubt anyone will expose Josh before the latter makes it to the upper echelons of the mountain.

He will be around for at least as long as Trigg, probably longer.

Nathan Quarry:

Were it not for Quarry’s advanced age (34), he would be number one on this list. Unlike every single other TUF contestant, “The Rock” has already fought very tough opposition…and won both times.

After absolutely slaughtering Lodune Sincaid in the finale of the Ultimate Fighter (lest you laugh at this, keep in mind Sincaid KO’d Trigg in auditions for the show), Quarry systematically destroyed the celebrated Shonie Carter, prior to blasting out undefeated Pete “Drago” Sell, a fighter had beaten Phil Baroni.

Quarry, while a good wrestler, (he trains for Team Quest, which has Olympic wrestling silver medallist Matt Lindland as well as Randy Couture heading its ranks) really excels standing up.

He has a stiff, solid jab, which he can back up with combinations at the appropriate moment. While Quarry’s punches are neither exceptionally fast nor as textbook as a pro boxer’s, they are still more than enough to decimate virtually anybody he will face.

Add to this Quarry’s iron chin, sterling ring movement, and footwork, which allowed Nate to dodge several murderous shots from Pete Sell and absorb a few others, and one sees a rare UFC fighter; one with excellent standup who is also immune to takedowns and submission from wrestler types.

It is worth noting that Quarry’s lone loss was via decision and occurred several years ago.

However, he is thirty-four, so he needs to make his championship push in the next few years.

Diego Sanchez:

While a little bit worse than Quarry right now, “The Nightmare” is extremely young and very capable of further improvement.

Diego is a very good wrestler, an excellent submission artist, and has an iron chin to back that up. While his punches and overall standup game are only average, that doesn’t make him a whole lot worse than many current welterweight contenders. His stamina and resilience against Josh Koschek was also very impressive, a good indicator for any tough fights Diego may have in the future.

Diego’s one problem, besides the so-so standup, are his rather risky shoots, ones that could potentially land him in trouble. Against Kenny Florian, there were several instances where if Florian had been able to kick at all from the ground, he would have knocked out Diego with a kick a la Ivan Salaverry against Joe Riggs.

Sanchez really has to watch out for this if and when he faces Georges St. Pierre, as the Canadian is absolutely lethal with his kicks and leg submissions, especially when someone attempts an over-aggressive shoot.

Nonetheless, if Diego isn’t thrown to the wolves too soon and develops his skills further, expect him to become welterweight champion, sans the return of BJ Penn to the UFC.

Update

Since I enjoy discussing both basketball and mixed martial arts, two new sub-sites have been added to the links.

I will make one post about each topic here first prior to confining all further writings to their appropriate niches.

The majority of visitors here can ignore this, as they probably don’t care about either one.

This especially goes for the four different visitors who accessed this site via Yahoo! Search for “how to have sex with a horse” or the Berlin person looking up “wild crazy German sex freaks”.

Template Change

Entering several unique search queries into Yahoo! to see if this site would be listed, I instead encountered a completely different blog several times. While it matches this site in terms of anonymity, it's quite decent, especially the movie reviews.

I also recently discovered the hilarity that is Gawker. Appropriate changes have been made to the Links section.

On a related note, traffic here became temporarily respectable after I posted the horse sex story. (About fifty unique visitors per day)

Of course, it's nothing compared to the number of hits this place got from Saudi Arabia with queries of "Arab sex" when I posted this; http://kingofkillers.blogspot.com/2005/05/homosexual-israelis-thirst-for-sex.html

I love thinking of how many people reading this were expecting hardcore pornography instead.

The Online Sex Punking

The set-up:

Grant is an individual who I've seen in passing twice in my entire life. Each time he was shamelessly making out with some girl.

I didn't even know her name.

Fortunately for me, Grant has a Xanga page. On his blog, Grant describes the entire relationship with the girl (Julia); the good times, the low point, and the eventual ugly break-up.

His AIM screen name was also there.

Do I even need to state what happens next?

df: Hello Grant
Planescape1: hmmm I dont recognize this username
df: Julia gave me this screen name.
df: We're presently dating.
Starscape: oh......what is it...ed?
Starscape: suffice it to say, I did not expect you to contact me

Starscape: or if you did, I expected it to be at some level of immaturity and anger from all the horrible things julia has told you
Starscape: (this has happened to me before)
df: Sorry dude.
Starscape: not a problem, you were polite...that wins points
Starcape: so whats up?
df: I just wanted to know a few things about your and Julia's relationship.

Starscape: yeah no problem, I'd be happy to help
Starscape: all I ask is that you keep an open mind
Starscape: Tatsu was not able to do that and assumed every single thing I said was a lie
df: No problem. Julia just seemed really upset, and didn't really want to go into the specifics of the affair.
Starscape: she's still getting upset about it?

df: Julia isn't very open about it.
Starscape: yeah, she....isnt very interested in talking about a lot of things when they arent exactly "happy" experiences
df: So, you and Julia dated for about eight months, no?

Starscape: I think it was closer to 11, but that might just be my flawed memory
df: What caused the relationship to go downhill?
df: Just you attending UC Santa Cruz, or something else?
Starscape: are you asking for the specific events where it died...the overreaching theme that killed it... the events leading up to it...what?
df: The specific events.
Starscape: I went to UCSC and julia and I both agreed to allow for hte potential of seeing other people, but in her mind that never really registered...she never thought it would happen and thought it was nothing
df: You saw someone else?

Starscape: we maintained our relationship or whatever for a while with me there
Starscape: until one day I came to her
Starscape: and told her that I couldnt get this girl out of my head
Starscape: i just couldnt stop thinking about her

Starscape: and I thought it was her right to know this
df: While you were at UC Santa Cruz?
Starscape: yes
df: Did you do anything with that girl, or was it just a thought?
Starscape: i didnt actually do anything

Starscape: it was a thought
Starscape: but it was impure
Starscape: so I thought it best to let julia know
Starscape: I refused to cheat on her, in mind or deed

df: What happened next?
Starscape: much screaming exploding crying stuffs
Starscape: and her leaving me

Starscape: it really was my fault though
df: After eleven months or so, it just took a phone call or two to break it up?
Planescape1: yeah it was pretty abrupt
df: No reconciliation, no getting back together?
df: Was this the first fight you two ever had?
Starscape: no we definiately had other fights
Starscape: usually about hte fact that her dance was 100x more important to her than I was

df: I'm pretty shocked; I've had fights with other girls, but we often made up and went back together.
Starscape: and that she would never take time out of her day to see me
Starscape: she wanted to get back together
Starscape: but i wouldnt

Starscape: until eventually I caved
Starscape: and came back to her asking if we could try
Starscape: and when I humbled myself and asked if we could try or whatever
Starscape: she was already starting things with tatsu
Starscape: we met one last time

df: Was this after you told her about the girl?
Starscape: after
Starscape: i think her words were something along the lines of "if you kiss me i wont be able to be with anyone else for at least a month or something"
df: And she immediately started with Tatsu, or after that?
Starscape: noooo of course not
Starscape: she started this thing with tatsu a couple weeks after the initial breakup

df: Tatsu was after your admission, right?
Starscape: he was after
Starscape: we did meet that final time
Starscape: we did fool around
Starscape: it was a "finalaizing" thing to her

Starscape: which it certainly was not for me
Starscape: and things ended up the other way around with *me* trying to get back with *her* but yeah
df: Can I ask you a personal question?
Planescape1: go ahead

df: Did you ever actually have sex with Julia, or was it just puppy love making out?
Starscape: the farthest it ever went was fingering, or her doing the opposing female-male thing to me ( handjob)
Starscape: we did not have sex
df: That's all?
Starscape: ...yeah...why?

Starscape: (im curious if you have gone that far or not now)
df: I've had oral sex with her.
Starscape: ahh
Starscape: yeah she wanted to do that and nearly let me
Starscape: but decided against it
df: Both ways. Me and her.
Starscape: we were close to that step
Starscape: hmm ok

Starscape: im guessing that my time with her opened her up sexually somewhat
df: To be perfectly honest, we even had intercourse once.
Starscape: she was very very afraid of ":doing something wrong"
Starscape: wow
Starscape: im surprised
df: But it was definitely an exception and took a lot of convincing....

Starscape: because im serious, she was hideously afraid of doing something she shouldnt do
Starscape: even though she wanted it
df: ... as well as an ambient, party atmosphere.

Starscape: and thank you for being honest with me
df: Yeah, you too.
Starscape: you have definately earned respect, though I dont think that really matters much to you :-P
df: I just wanted to know a bit more about Julia, since she doesn't like to talk about her past relationships.

Starscape: i have a question
Starscape: she never had sex with me
Starscape: but she did with you
df: Yes.
Starscape: are you saying she wasnt a virgin when you had sex>
Starscape: ?


df: She assured me it was her first time.
df: But it's impossible to tell for certain.
Starscape: then why ask me? :-P
Starscape: well
Starscape: yeah I guess

Starscape: it actually is possible to tell for certain assuming she hasnt broken her hymen before
Starscape: but ok
df: I didn't pay attention.
Starscape: yeah, it doesnt matter
df: I was a little drunk...
Starscape: ugh
df: By the way, do you know how I could talk to Tatsu?
Starscape: he wont talk to you about this really
Starscape: unless he changed since last we talked

Starscape: i just know that tatsu was never right for her
Starscape: and he was completely rebound

df: Are you seeing anyone now?
Starscape: yes
Starscape: have been for ~3 months
df: Cool, do you have any pictures.

df: I'll show you one of my past girlfriends...
Starscape: actually no, I dont have any on my computer at the moment...im sorry =(
df: I like Julie, but she oftentimes seems possessive.
Starscape: julia? =P
df: Typo.

df: Did you ever sense that about her?

Starscape: yes I did very much
Starscape: in fact
Starscape: ive sensed it even since we broke up
df: Here's my girlfriend before Julia;
df: http://www.tuckermax.com/britt.gif
df: What do you think?

Starscape: i cant tell a whole lot from a picture
Starscape: but at the very least
Starscape: shes pretty
df: She ended up being a bit too superficial and loose for me.
df: But she was also very nice, we're still friends.

Starscape: too loose?
Starscape: thats good
Starscape: i wish i could still be friends with julia
Starscape: she really wont talk to me anymore
Starscape: she kinda does

Starscape: but its really superficial
df: Yeah, her name was Alice.
df: Damn, have to go.
df: See you.

Cool Movie

http://www.dvdcult.com/images/MOTFG.jpg

"Master of the Flying Guillotine"

A seventy year old blind man lives by himself on a chicken farm. One day, he gets really mad, so he takes out a "flying guillotine" and beheads all his chickens.

Then he goes around towns terrorizing inhabitants, destroying entire buildings, causing women and children to run around screaming hysterically, and beheading anyone who pisses him off.
This is unquestionably the coolest part of the film.

Only one man possesses the god-like power to stop the blind, senile, geriatric.

That man is a cripple. That man is the One-Armed Boxer, whose remaining limb has gained immense strength from having its partner cut off.

Other characters:

An Indian Yoga practioner whose arms stretch out to over ten feet long.

A fat Chinese guy with an obnoxiously long, Gengis-Khan moustache who gains fighting strength from being kicked in the balls.

A Thai fighter who shakes his ass prior to every fight and is constantly tripping on acid.

Summary: Great, marvelous film.

Apparently, the Seattle farmer died of a ruptured colon. The horse was screwing him, not the other way around.

His wife and family were unaware of the man's personal lifestyle.

The Greatest Countries in the World

Creating this list was infinitely more pleasing than I had originally imagined. Feel free to submit any of your own.

"Japan is the greatest country in the world for old men with weird sex fetishes, ugly, slanty-eyed sluts in sailor suits, anime, slightly diluted tapwater called "sake", and crazy shouting dudes."

"Australia is the greatest country in the world for furry animals, hats made out of them, and funny accents."

http://www.millerhats.com/productimages/336.jpg

http://www.conmicro.cx/~kturtle/diaries/mfm02/photos/fsp-kangaroo.jpg

"America is the greatest country in the world for foaming-at-the-mouth feminists, utterly useless jobs, Downs Syndrome university humanities professors, and elite geniuses."

"France is the greatest country in the world for extreme Muslim terrorists, ugly foul-smelling pigs/beasts politely refered to as "French women", dickless male wonders who eat snails, and
Yahoos dumber than Helen Keller."

"China is the greatest country in the world for rickshaws, rice, sneaky people, future kung fu movie stars, Communist government, crappy beer, and vicious Triads."

"Italy is the greatest country in the world for vegetablized, senile old men wearing tiaras, secret religious/sex societies, prostitutes outside churchs, and obnoxiously bad romantic singers."
