Good point. And I've got the same impression about Tim. It's just too much, like they're role playing.

I thought the staredown was way too much. On one hand, Brown tried the 'captain intenso' stare for what seemed like an eternity. On the other hand, May couldn't look him in the eye, and kept making that douchebaggish face. I'm not really a fan of Matt, but I hope he shuts May the hell up. Quickly.

Did anyone notice on the clips for 'next week's episode' they showed Jeremy May throwing a huge bomb at Brown.
Americans are good at editing to tell a different story so perhaps they were trying to mislead us. I think Jeremy is going to get pounded out. He's a smug as hell but he made me laugh at times.

You would be a May fan.
Do you just sit around waiting for the next annoying fighter to come along so you can jump on his bandwagon?
J/K. I'm just giving you a hard time 'cause you like Tito.

Matt Brown needs to lighten the **** up. If he had a problem with May's antics then he could have pulled him to one side and told him. Instead he had to be a little bitch about it.
Thats why I was rooting for Riddle against Credeur so bad.

Under most circumstances I would be right there along with you. I hate when dudes talk a bunch of trash and act all hard(I was rooting for Riddle as well for just that reason).
But in this case, I really didn't sense that Brown was "putting on a show" like a lot of fighters do (like the guy Brown beat to get on the show did). I think the guy's just introverted and was extremely offended by what May did.
Once again, to me or you it might be extreme, but maybe where Matt's from, that's a genuine showing of disrespect or insult and he's just reacting in a natural way.
Or he could simply be a douche, I don't know  . I like Brown and haven't liked May since the "Mind ya own business" debacle with Rampage. I actually like Brown to the extent that I hope he wins the contract.

Brown had every right to be upset, I don't blame him for that. That May is immature and stupid is already clear from what little we've seen of him. However, the high school staredown/holding his fist up stuff is so unprofessional. Tell him he was out of line messing with your stuff and then beat him in the ring, that's all you have to do.

It appears to me that you have an affinity for shit-talkers lol: Tito, May, Riddle (to some extent).
But I do agree with you, that Matt Brown took the tobacco ordeal, FAR too seriously.

It is for sure, they put it on the grocery list.
Just like the kegs of beer in past episodes, etc...
It isn't like the guy is buying the logs of it himself or something.

Real tough guys know they are tough, they don't have to go out of their way to show everyone how tough they are. They don't do shit like that.

Go tell that to Wanderlei Silva. Some guys genuinly hate their opponents or there just a little crazy or something. Not all people who do that are trying to look badass, hes probably not even thinking about what he looks like, he just wants to hurt the guy hes fighting and it shows.
