I cannot really comment on the show yet (once it's done I will) but Kos is acting this way for television. If you had to guys like GSP on the show it would be boring and lame. Kos is just acting like a character, I assure you he is not like that in real life.

Well, I'm sure some of it has to be for the camera, but it has always been obvious Koscheck is an idiot.

If I;m on national television, I want to represent myself in a way that will make people appreciate me as a fighter. If he is acting out this way just for the camera, it's even worse.

yeah I don't really agree with the whole idea of Kos' "acting" like a douche...he doesn't need to do that sh** for the show to be entertaining...just show me some good fights and that is all I need...I don't need guys with colored hair and mo-hawks peeing in each others coffee and getting in pointless prank wars that end up leading to a brawl...that is some soap opera sh**. If I want to watch a soap opera aimed at males I would watch more WWE.

You have to remember you are watching a reality tv show. Where ratings matter. Put it this way the more people that tune into Kos beating GSP = More money on Kos's next fight. I remember when this forum was full of fans that wanted to know/love MMA. Now people are judging people for trying to make more money?

No way! That's just a crazy idea. Don't try to throw the book at us as fans of the sport because you buddy's embarassing himself on national tv. There have been other seasons that have done very well and built the coaches fight without one of the guys acting like a complete douche. In fact I've never seen any of the coaches act the way Kos is. Not even Tito. Not even Rampage. Picking out a member of the other team's staff who just so happens to have zero fighting skills. Why is it that he's the only person that Kos physically touches? Well, regardless of all the stupid things he;s doing on the show, he'd better put on an enteraining fight/victory or he's going to be the one with the egg on his face.

In all fairness IT'S ALL HYPE, I wish people would see that that's KOS is the way he is, he plays it. Also as far a picking on the Male Nurse dude(can't remember his name) everyone else KOS talks crap to just ignores it or says something back while walking away, he brings it on himself.

That guy did nothing to deserve that treatment. What, Kos is allowed to talk all the sh** he wants? But when he gets his card pulled about those bull**** prat falls he's pulled durring his fights he's allowed to be the one with the attitude? C'mon man. Not everyone can sit there and take constant crap thrown at them. Especially since the medic guy isn't fighting for any sort of contract.

I get what Kos is trying to do on tv. Obviously controversy sells, and he's doing his best to run with the opportunity he's been given. And lets be realistic, it's very unlikely that he goes around treating people that way 24/7. Still, I thought Kos was a bit of a dick long before the show. Most likely that's a small part of who he is as a person, but whatever.
And there's no defense for a fighter picking a fight with some untrained medic. If that was a legit altercation, Kos is an idiot. If it was some staged fight, then the producers are idiots. Fighters are always mis-labeled as hot headed, blood thirsty neanderthals. To see something like that happen, it's flat out ridiculous.

I remember when this forum was full of fans that wanted to know/love MMA. Now people are judging people for trying to make more money? errrrrrmmmmm... I never said I wanted to see more fights during the season..I said just show me a GOOD fight. The quantity of fights in the show is completely fine with me. But there is no reason for the show to play into the basic consensus upon conservative america that mma fighters are glorified bar room brawlers. destroying the house, throwing eggs at each other, pissing in each others drinks, trained fighters picking on an EMT? Come on man...that sh** is cool for you? You ARE a representative of the sport..you don't mind it being represented like this? I understand it is a reality tv show..but when it first started Dana White promised that it would not fall into the typical reality tv show... I know Dana promises a lot of things...but the first two seasons he was right, and I don't think I am alone on thinking this...those were without a doubt the best two seasons to date...

All I will say is GSP is not as innocent as he seems. Why was the medic sitting in the middle of the bleachers during weigh ins? I don't recall seeing Greg Jackson their, Camarillo, any other trainers. So why was this guy who is not a coach at all sitting in the middle with all the fighters? Why does GSP need his own medic? That medic would not be able to help the fighters, the athletic commision's state medics would help. So why was he their? What was his purpose?

I like how out of all the people in the house for him to mess with, he picks on the ONE guys who has no type of fighting experience. Way to go Josh....douche This, lol. I suppose you've got to hand it to Koshcheck though... he knows that most people think he hasn't got a chance against GSP, so he's trying to hype up the fight any way he can. It's making the series very entertaining!

Man, Brookins is something else. I remember thinking about how tough the guy was back when Aldo battered him for 3 rounds. Kind of cool to see him doing pretty well thus far on the show after that. Looking forward to the Nam Pham/McKenzie fight.

Cody is begging to be blasted into oblivion with the way he keeps his chin up.
And there ya go. Brutal body shots.

Nam Phan was actually my pick to win. Even though he's lost a few, he's lost to top, top guys like Omigawa, Thomson, and JZ.

Brookins looks so f***ing good. I don't know if it is because the guys he is going against aren't that good or if he really is THAT good.
