Haha, right? Like these divisions need to get any deeper. Well it's always good to add talent, but why not work on the divisions that might need it a little more...ie HW!

yorT · 03-26-2008, 10:56 AM

Have they ever done HW?

Fearless13 · 03-26-2008, 11:39 AM

Darnit! You have to be 21 or older.

Bummer about the lack of heavyweights, I think this is a division that seriously needs some more fighters. I am sick of seeing tim Sylvias flabby body fumble around the ring for 5 rounds.

narcotix · 03-26-2008, 05:58 PM

Wow i thought it was common sense the next TUF would be HW. Since its the division thats the thinnist for up and comers and even the "top" people in the division # very few.

Out of these shows usually only a handful make it to & stay with UFC so why they would want more people in some of the more stacked divisions is beyond me.
