The Pearl At The Palms Casino
Las Vegas, Nevada

Two of the most celebrated alumni from The Ultimate Fighter® will finally meet inside the Octagon™ in the live finale of The Ultimate Fighter: Team Liddell vs. Team Ortiz on Saturday, June 19 at 9:00pm ET/PT. Emanating from The Pearl at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, the 'Dean of Mean', Keith Jardine (Season 2) takes on Matt 'The Hammer' Hamill (season 3) in a matchup pitting Jardine’s unorthodox striking against Hamill’s powerhouse wrestling, with the winner moving further up the ranks in the UFC’s ultra-competitive light heavyweight division.

Jamie 'chosyn-1' Yager vs Rich 'The Raging Bull' Attonito
John 'Guns' Gunderson vs Mark Holst
Brad Tavares vs Seth 'Polish Pistola' Baczynski
Kyle Noke vs Josh 'The Beast' Bryant

James 'The Hammer' McSweeney vs Travis Browne

I want Nick "The Promise" Ring vs Kyle Noke.


Picks?

[Lars]

James Hamortree has a nickname? Why? His last name sounds like it comes from Middle-Earth.

Court 'The Crusher' McGee vs Kris 'Savage' McCray- McGee takes this one easy unless McCray's cardio has gotten lightyears better since the end of the show. Should be a good fight anyway.

Jamie 'chosyn-1' Yager vs Rich 'The Raging Bull' Attonito- Attonito via pretty much anything he wants. Yager has no ground game and his standup is limited to flashy hail mary shots.

Brad Tavares vs Seth 'Polish Pistola' Baczynski- Baczynski via hideous-looking KO.

Kyle Noke vs Josh 'The Beast' Bryant- Bryant via GnP, unless Noke's been doing a lot of work on his wrestling.

James 'The Sledge' Hammortree vs Chris Camozzi- Camozzi takes this easy. Hammortree kinda sucks at everything but having a cool last name.

GO NOKE

you can bet he's been working on the wrestling like a man possessed.

other than that i'm looking forward to seeing rich fight again. i thought he was one of the better guys in the house.

McGee by:

Beard Naked Choke

This moment will spark a revolution in the MMA world. Bring on the beards!

[Rath]

Mark "Boots" Holst for the fucking win. He is one of the trainers at my gym. Downright amazing guy. I'm calling him by TKO.

Court via fist behind beard.

Spoiler:

Results so far according to Sherdog for those not watching-

Camozzi def. Hammortree via unanimous decision in what reads like a boring fight in which they both gassed by a minute into the second round.

Noke def. Bryant via second round TKO. According to the play by play, he crushed Bryant's legs with low kicks so badly that wrestling never came into it. If the description is accurate, Bryant only landed one strike the entire fight. I'm really interested to see this one tomorrow.

Tavares def. Baczynski via unanimous decision. Looks like it was pretty competitive and could have gone either way.

Attonito def. Yager via second round GnP skullfucking. Seems like a lot of the same crap we saw from him against Bryant. I'll be surprised if they give him another chance at this point. You can't really sell him as the guy that everyone wants to see put in his place if he's not any good to begin with.

Spoiler:

I totally called it.

Just look at the replays. You don't actually see the arms making the choke. McGee took the opportunity to use his beardwork to its full potential.

McGee by beard naked choke.

Was out of the house for part of it.

Chuckled when Yager lost, he didn't look too interested in that fight. Congrats to Rich 'The Raging Bull' Attonito.
Leban looked sharp, did all the right things at the right time, waited for the openings to come instead of going berserk.
Jardine seemed to be winning, until he accidentally gouged Hamill. Then he lost his game plan, got cut, lost. Blood on the camera lens for a good minute was amusing too.
Did the TUF final look weird to y'all? Few people in the seats for the McGee vs McCray fight.
Congrats to Court McGee for his win, I love the hard working grinders

lol @ Travis Brown eating the blood off his gloves. He really took advantage of McSweeny's relaxed attitude when backing up. I'm sure they'll be lots of armchair analysis regarding the sex of the referee in this fight, but she seemed to do a solid job.

Like to hear Kenny Florian commentating, he's much more calmer and doesn't seem to burst out of his seat every time someone gets rocked.

[Big Dozer]

I am sad my school mate wasnt there to do it, but I am glad that big mouthed asshat got KOed
