Who isn\'t into the UFC now a days? Just look at my signature ha hah. I first started watching it when the Ultimate Fighter first aired! Purchased UFC 52 right after it and been watching every Pay-Per-View since. This season of Ultimate Fighter has been real fun to watch especially since it\'s Tito Ortiz and Ken Shamrock as the coaches and their hatred for each other is as real as it gets. Can\'t wait till they face off in October. I was a bit dissapointed in Tito Ortiz\' performance agaisnt Forrest Griffin, as anyone who seen Tito fight back in the day i.e. Tito Ortiz vs Vanderlei Silva, Ken Shamrock, Evan Tanner, and Vitor Belfort exc exc, had Tito pratically walking through Forrest Griffin and winning in the first round, which he didn\'t. As for Matt Hughes vs Royce Gracie, Matt has his work cut out for him in my opinion. Alot of people think that Royce has been inactive for 6 years which just isn\'t true. He\'s fought in Pride and many other competitions with people twice his size and still won. I could see Royce pulling a submission from full gaurd fairly easy and submitting Matt. Last time I checked, Matt lost the belt to BJ Penn via RNC and a controvesial KO over Carlos Newton when Newton locked in a Triangle Choke on Matt, Matt fainted and dropped Newton on his head knocking him out. Tech. they were both out of it. So I don\'t think Matt will walk right through Royce Gracie and if he does oh well, not like its for Matt title belt.I could see it causing some major controversy if Royce did win cause if he did he beat the Champ hr will not get the belt even though Matt belt isn\'t his to begin with seeing how BJ Penn beat him for it but got kicked out of the UFC and they gave the belt to Matt. That\'s why Matt wants to fight BJ Penn so bad and not a rematch fight with GSP. Anyways my favorite fighter would have to be Randy Couture (even though he retired) and Rich Franklin, the guy is a beast. There\'s a BJJ gym about 40 minutes from my house, hope to get in shape and train there when I\'m old enough.
