Damn, would've liked to see Tim vs. Amir. With Tim going all the way. Amir will do it though, story of the year: No professional record, guy wins it all.
Expect to see Tim somewhere though.

I am suprised Dana spoke so great about this season and the fights when very few are even getting a chance at fighting during the finale and the season went by so quick with most episodes having two fights in them with less build up for each. Figured when the episode started with Amir and C.B. on fight day getting ready that it would be a good fight and that there would be another good long fight later as the show was extra long tonight. Feel bad for Jessie hopefully they guy gets some help to control himself and gets another chance. Glad to see the fight to decide a replacement and not just someone put in. I am really rooting for Amir as he makes not only this season better but makes the future season more interesting as now they can truely say anyone has a shot at making it to the finals as in most of the past season the finalist were two of the top three or four favorites at the start of the season but Amir cam in 0-0 in pro fights and really couldn't have been looked as a likely guy to be in the finals.

CB won the 1st 2 rounds untill Amir's class arm bar, its going to be a great match which i think CB will win this time.
I do hope Amir wins though, he shouldn't have to fight someone again who he has already beaten (and by submission) so in a way Amir is the true Ulimate Fighter anyway.

I think Jesse got screwed more because of his unexciting but effective style than anything else. Really is what he done that bad? Just Dana looking to make an exciting final

What Dana did was perfectly justified. Jesse went out in public and gave people the stereotypical impression that people usually first get about the UFC. He led them on to believe that UFC fighters and MMA fighters in general arent athletes, but theyre violent lunatics who cant be considered athletes. IMO Dana was just looking out for the buisiness.

I think he also rubbed Dana White the wrong way by telling the security guards "Do you know who I am? I'm a UFC fighter!" Think about it: If you're a true UFC fighter with multiple fights under your belt, sitting at home watching TUF, and this young punk who hasn't even earned a contract yet makes a public fool of himself, and then has the cajones to brag "I'm a UFC fighter?" If I were an established UFC fighter, I'd take that as a slap in the face. Jesse was in the finals, but honestly, he was NOT a UFC fighter yet. I think there are guys on the UFC roster who have done stupid stuff like that in public before, but they were given a second chance because they were already UFC guys. Jesse, in Dana White's eyes, probably committed a worse offense by boasting about being a UFC fighter DURING his foolish behavior, when in reality, he technically hadn't had a UFC fight yet. I actually expected Forrest and Rampage to be a little more upset about that, since those guys have paid their dues already, and here's this kid who hasn't paid his dues out in public giving the true UFC fighters a bad name.

Jesse got screwed alright, by himself. He's got no-one to blame but himself for getting kicked off the show. If he wasn't a ing drunk, he'd still be on the show. But nope. He doesn't know his own limit and he went way too far. You can't do that stuff in public and expect to get away with it. Like Dana said "That sh*t don't cut it." Jesse is an idiot and a drunk and blew a chance of a lifetime. End of story.

I see Amir vs. Jesse in the finals. They have ha a lot of air time, and it seems like they're pushing these guys down our throats. I don't mind, because they're both better (personality wise) than the 3rd person speaking CB Dolloway. I hate that smug prick. Amir will beat CB. Who called that crap?

Umm you said Amir vs. Jesse, and it wasn't... you were wrong.
A great season, nonetheless and can't wait until Season 8.

Glad that it looks like season 8 will be started like season 7 with people fighting their way into the house. I also hear Jesse is already starting to make the changes to get his life back on track and earn a chance back into the UFC and quit drinking. Hope he stays on this path and gets a shot in the UFC in the future.

I think I just wrote that a little badly. lol. But I watched some UFC today, and some WEC I think it was called? But In UFC i only caught the Sadollah v.s. Dollaway match.
