WOW!!! Talk about turning it off to soon. As soon as Melendez tapped to Gray, I switched over to watch my Cavs take on the Pistons. Now I get on here and read that Diaz leaves Team Pulver. Never in a million years saw that coming. I'll have to watch the encore now.

He's still Team Pulver, I don't blame Diaz for switching, don't want to train with your opponent.
Oh, so he's just going to train with BJ's team so he doesn't have to train with his opponent, Corey Hill?

Nate goes to train with Penn next week (not switching teams just training). If he wins I think he stays with Penn because he fights Manny after that.

The week after that I suspect Lauzon will go to train with Pulver because he will be fighting Maynard. Just watch and see. There was a hint about this happening at the first episode. Also Joe praises jens and jens praises joe too much in their blogs for me to not think this could happen.

It would be a spoiler if I knew it was true. Im just speculating.

I did make it a little more difficult to read just in case some tard like you thinks I have a friend of a friend who knows a friend or some BS like that. I dont know **** just using my best guess is all.
Ah, everything is cool then. Can't be too careful..

he isnt leaving the team and goin with penns, he is training with penn for his fight cuz he is facing a teammate and doesnt want to train with him... which i feel is 100% acceptable

I don't know..........I think he leaves with some ill taste in his mouth about somethin. If you noticed in the preview Jens's team is walkin in callin him a traitor! It will be interesting to say the least!
Yeah I saw that too but how much of it was edited?? I saw Manny flipping someone off and they made it look like it was Nate but it doesn't show for sure.

Yeah I saw it, I still think they are just pissed he left to train with penns team, he didnt pull a Andy and switch, you can't.. if you watched last night Jens told that guy (cant think of his name) that he scouldnt just jump ships


Still support Nate

If you read Pulver's blog he kind of covers this very thing. He says you cannot train on both teams if you wanna switch then you switch and leave this team to go be on the other team which I guess Nate does. Pulver had a line like if you wanna see if the grass is greener on the side then go for it, but don't think you can come back here.

If you go back and watch the preview for the next episode, it shows Diaz training in Team Pulver's yellow shorts while he's with Penn. For me, that makes me think he's staying with Jens.

I don't think Nate switched teams, I think he just asked to train with Penn while Jens trains his opponent in Corey Hill. Who would want their next opponent standing 8 ft. away from them, watching everything they do? It only makes sense for this specific situation (two members of the same team fighting). I think the whole "traitor" talk and Manny flipping him off will turn out to be in jest.

With Gray and Lauzon already advanced, it wouldn't make sense for Nate to burn the Team Pulver bridge. Although, this time Nate's working with BJ, will give Maynard, Lauzon, and Wiman all a chance to scout him...

I don't think Nate would need any help for Corey though, Corey is just too raw. With two fights next week I assume one ends rather quickly, I'm guessing a quick sub from Nate. Though Manny/Wiman could end rather quickly as well.

Ok one week later. What do you think now that we've seen a preview into next week? Two things in that preview to consider.
Nate and Karo having words.
The coaches meeting with Dana on a speaker phone asking "Why dont we have the teamates fight".
I still think it's ludicrous. Nate will stay on Team Pulver and I don't think we'll see teammate vs. teammate. I think the matchups will go Manny vs. Joe and Nate vs. Gray.
