Join Bloody Elbow every Wednesday night to discuss the latest episode of the Ultimate Fighter 12, featuring UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre and Ultimate Fighter 1 alum Josh Koscheck.
Well, now we know the 14 contestants on the show. But which team will they fight for? We’ll find out tonight.
In last week’s conference call, the coaches explained their draft strategies. GSP, who admitted to not knowing much about the fighters coming into the show, looked to pick guys he could help the most. Koscheck, meanwhile, claimed to have researched the contestants and sought out guys with heart and a drive to fight.
What else did we find out in episode one? Dana White still loves trying to recapture the magic of season one’s “do you want to be a f’ing fighter” speech. Koscheck likes to talk. And GSP can’t be bothered to show any sort of emotion. Looks like the beginning of another stellar season. Don’t stop now, boys.
