Results from the Ultimate Fighter Finale

The following are results from the Ultimate Fighter 6 Finale:

Roger Huerta def. Clay Guida via submission (RNC), R3
Mac Danzig def. Tommy Speer via submission (RNC), R1
Jon Koppenhaver def. Jared Rollins via TKO, R3
George Sotiropoulous def. Billy Miles via submission (RNC), R1
Ben Saunders def. Dan Barrera via unanimous decision
Troy Mandaloniz def. Richie Hightower via TKO, R1
Roman Mitichyan def. Dorian Price via submission (ankle lock), R1
Jonathan Goulet def. Paul Georgieff via submission (RNC), R1

That puts me at 5/9 for this event. In my defense the only connection I had with this show was the event recaps on various sites. I might try and do something in the future with this tipping business.

Anyway, this show definantly seemed top quality from all reports. Due to me not being aware if Spike can even be broadcast in Australia I have not been able to see any of these fights. I am however very eager to do so.

P.S. I also stand by my decision not to choose Jonathan Goulet

Quick Predictions for TUF 6 Finale

I was originally going to attempt a full preview for the The Ultimate Fighter 6 finale but I’m tired right now and I won’t be on the computer tomorrow. So here are my quick tips for the event.

1. Roger Huerta to win by TKO in the 3rd round over Clay Guida
2. Mac Danzig to win by submission in the 2nd round over Tommy Speer
3. George Sotiropoulous to win by submission in the 1st round over Billy Miles
4. Jared Rollins to win by submission in the 3rd round over Jon Koppenhaver
5. Dan Barrera to win by unanimous decision over Ben Saunders
6. Richie Hightower to win by unanimous decision over Troy Mandaloniz
7. Roman Mitichyan to win by submission in the 1st round over Dorian Price
8. Matt Arroyo to win by submission in the 2nd round over John Kolosci
9. Paul Georgieff to win by whatever the hell he wants whenever he wants over Jonathan Goulet

Let us see how wrong I turn out to be.

TUF 6 Finale Finalised

The Ultimate Fighter 6 Finale’s card has now been finalised reports MMAjunkie.com. The news comes after today’s final episode in which both Mac Danzig and Tommy Speer won their semi final match-ups and will now duke it out for the multi-fight contract with the UFC and the tag of the “Ultimate Fighter”.

The fight that will decide this season of the Ultimate Fighter is a bit surprising. Not Mac Danzig’s part because that was to be expected but the man Danzig was expected to face, Australian George Sotiropoulous was upset by the Team Hughes fighter, Tommy Speer.

A remarkable comeback by Team Hughes who had only 2 fighters out of the 8 in the quarterfinals, now make up the final. Not without a bit of controversy though, as during the fight with Sotiropoulous, Speer apparently landed an eye gouge that caused significant problems to the Australian. Speer capitalised on the distorted vision to land a thundering punch that helped to knock his opponent out of and move himself one step further in the competition.

The TUF 6 Finale looks like this:
