Hi SbgiDpekkanen,
Hello, and welcome to the forum! It's not being shown here in Australia, and it probably never will be given that nothing from Spike has ever been picked up in Australia, and they've even taken the UFC off our pay-tv! Are you Finnish? Cakegirl

^^ Agreed. I guess thats what people(outsiders) want to see.
That guy Chris is a complete f**kface. I was pretty happy to see him get cought in a choke. Even after that he was still talking about how hes the best fighter in the world. Those guys have a handful of great trainers, and I was in awe seeing their training facility. |

It's an interesting show. Like has been said already, I'd like to see more of the training then the home life aspect of it. I too can't stand Chris Leben, but he does have talent and grit, can't take it away from him no matter how much I don't like him. I also have to agree that some of them dont seem to be taking full advantage of what is in front of them. There has been some lacklustre training, and poor diets.

"There has been some lacklustre training, and poor diets." haha yeah alcohol seems to be a staple for them. I think the shows really cool, and I think it could be good for MMA. Alot of the people who think fighters are just bloodthirsty thugs will get to see that most of them are just good people with different interests than them. And yeah that Chris Leben is kind of an ass, but hes a good fighter so I guess well have to see what happens with him.

You guys didn't honestly think Chris Leben was going to get cut did you?
He is, after all, on Team Quest with Randy Couture. So, I don't think Randy was going to cut him from the show considering they fight on the same MMA team. |

I too really enjoyed it. I look forward to seeing where it goes.
I don't know, Leban seemed like a fun guy to hang around with to me. The guy just runs around acting a fool. Where is the harm in that? I thought the other fighters should lighten up a bit. He doesn't directly attack anyone in any horrible way - he just has some words. And when people play back, he doesn't get all upset. No big deal.
