Thought??

If Rich loses again to Silva I don't think I'd want to watch a 3rd fight. I mean what would be the point? Even if he wins he'd still be 1-2 against Silva. I think Marquardt is a good choice, but don't know about the other. Maybe Hendo?

I'm no longer even interested in heavies except for Randy, and Fedor. If those two were to coach a TUF series, I'd piss myself.

How can you not be interested in Heavyweights? For me, it's one of if not the best division to watch.

I'm just not impressed with anybody at the moment. Especially CroCop. I love the guy, but I see his career ending soon. Arlovski is entertaining, and may have some exciting fights to come, but still not interested. Nog is good, I can't stand Sylvia, I hope Vera beats his ass... Uhhh, There's really not much I'm looking forward to with Heavies, and Randy's apparently out until February.

Well for me, fighting styles make exciting fights, not big names. I just think Heavyweights offer the biggest potential in terms of differnt fighting styles and therefore can offer really interesting fights.
But I also like watching Middle weights just because they appear the most 'normal' lol

I agree about the fighting styles, but honestly I don't see any more style in the heavyweights than in any of the lighter fighters. I do love to see a smaller, more talented fighter beat the crap out of the muscle-bound giant though. That's one thing you'd find in heavies as opposed to the rest.

I read on a thread here about two months ago that Joe Silva said they are unlikely to do another HW TUF due to the lack of real HW's. Evans & Jardine competed at HW during TUF then drop down as soon as they could who else from TUF 2 HW division remains in the UFC?
