Being a drama-bitch aside- Junie is a TUF contestant which equals multiple undeserved opportinuties that aren't granted to other more talented fighters.
See past history.

I think Junie has a future, I think he is mentally unstable and needs to get his head screwed on (personally Id say professional help is needed) but it will be interesting to see what training at a real gym will do for him, he has stated himself that he thought his ground game was better than it really is because he trained with people below his level, he could have his way with all the guys at his old gym, that must give a guy both a false sense of confidence as well as a bit of and overwhelmed feeling when he stepped into the octagon against a higher level of fighters dont underestimate how much training alongside guys like Tyson Griffen and Gray Maynard will help him., I dont see how anyone can think Kaplan will take him though, seriously Kaplan was possible the worst fighter in TUF house.
Personally I think Junie will be like a Chris Leben, I think although he wont be a top name I think he will do good enough that his memorable stint on the show will earn him a long term back and forth tenure in the UFC,

I would guess he will be around for awhile after the finale as well, either with the UFC or WEC, especially with all the news about him training at Extreme Couture and totally changing his ways and how serious he takes his training now.

Is anyone really impressed with Junie? Everyone was saying how "Oh he's a jerk but he is a very talented fighter" but now with all the dust settled he doesn't even seem to be a talented fighter at all. He took Roli to a decision, and just caved in against Efrain. How is he impressive? He'll beat Kaplan, but aside from that I don't see any sort of future for him.

Here ya go sir  It was worse than I remembered:
"Jeremy Jackson, who appeared on season four of "The Ultimate Fighter," was arrested late last month and charged with seven felony offenses, including two counts of forcible ****. The 26-year-old Jackson was apprehended on June 30 in Oxnard, Calif., and is being held in a Ventura County jail, with bail set at $1 million. Officials with the Ventura County Sheriff's Department confirmed"

I've heard people say that, but I've definately never said that. I've hated Junie since his first outburst, and have seen him as a mediocre fighter (on a good day) since his fight with Rolli. I think before, people just thought he was good because of how much he hyped himself. People probably thought, "Wow, this guy is saying that he's gonna win the show, and that he'll be the most successful MMA fighter in the house. There's no way he's not talented." Junie put the carriage in front of the horse on this one. It's kind of sorry that he learned to talk shit and hype himself prior to being a talented MMA fighter. He's a tool. Done.
