Been watching The Ultimate Fighter on Spike TV
Right now I'm watching the second show of the third installment of
The Ultimate Fighter on Spike TV. So far I've enjoyed the 3rd season and its fairly different from the past shows. They've gone out of their way to get a cast of real characters in Tito Ortiz, Ken Shamrock and a bunch of whacky fighters.
A big plus is they picked guys that are hard and real fighters as opposed to too many quitters and weaker guys in the second. The show started really slow for season two and season three didn't have that problem. These guys are all here to fight. Cheers to Dana White or whoever is in charge of picking these guys.
They're ruining Tito Ortiz's image man!!! He's supposed to be a punk and he's coming off as a hell of a coach and a genuinely nice guy. It doesn't look to me like spin. They better watch themselves or they'll have a guy everyone wants to cheer for instead of against. I already like him better than Shamrock.
I'm liking
Spike TV's programming with the UFC. I'm not much of a wrestling fan these days but I see these TNA commercials and I might give it a look so good pairing there. This weekend is the UFC pay per view and I'll be watching. I haven't done any market research lately to see how its working out for the UFC and Spike but I imagine their viewership is up.
