It's real hard to tell who is going to win this season. You could tell from the early stages of the last few seasons Bisping, Joe, and Diego were going to win, and it was either going to be Ed, Kalib, or Kendall. Everyone pretty much knew Matt Serra was going to win TUF4.
This season is up in the air, aside from Hill it's anyones to win.

You are right its anyones game. But I just am hoping Joe pulls it off. The kid is relentless. He never stops. I used to have this video of his, that had him fighting his brother in the grass. Like mma style. It had some of his fights, and a bunch of his submissions in grappling tourneys. I cant find it anymore. Its drivin me nuts. Here is a different HL of his though.
Joe Lauzon Highlights - Google Video
edit* here it is Joe Lauzon Highlight Video - Nov 2005 - Google Video
The guy at 3:09 is a friend of mine, who is a very good grappler.
Its crazy, check out how he leaves his lead leg out there baiting them to go for the single leg, and then scissors them into a leglock/heelhook

I really think that like others have said this season is a little more up for grabs than the others. Joe is an awsome exciting fighter, but being that agressive can also leave some holes in your game for an experienced fighter to take advantage off. I also really like the styles of Cole Miller and Manny. Cole has a great bjj backround through American Top Team and Manny has big judo backround through his cousin Karo. Any way these next few episodes go I think this season has brought out some excellent LW talent and the division is much better for it.

Let it be known that Joe will win the whole thing, and that Nate Diaz is a b or even c-level fighter. Lauzon VS Mat = Finals.

I dont know if you watched the second video in my last post. But Joe has this crazy way of making it look like he has left something open, and then capitolizing on his opponents eagerness to attack. Or maybe he is just a really good counter fighter. Either way he is dangerous. I hear what you are saying though. Its good that this show is going to produce a whole new crop of fighters to load up the LW division.

It makes sense to have Jens coach the show. Him and BJ have a history. They are trying to shine some light on the LW division. I think that was the plan to have BJ and Jens coach when they got Jens back. Joe wasnt supposed to win that fight. He shocked everyone. Even Dana. Someone made a bet with Dana that Joe gets to drive his Ferari if he beat Jens. Dana took the bet, but still hasnt paid up on it. Anyway, I think after Joe won they were like, shit, we mine as well throw him on the show to stir up things.

I predicted Joe to win it since I heard he'll be on the show. I remember seeing his highlight and grapping videos a while back and they were effin impressive.
Still think EVERYONE but a few is looking past Cole Miller. The sleeper pick.
