Of course after yet another loss Rampage wasn’t too happy. Despite the second round being close the fact still remains that Matt was landing small hits that even though they didn’t do any damage, they still scored him points. It’s interesting that the first time anything is destroyed this season it’s Rampage who is destroying a door. Putting his foot through it, then his first and head butting it. He finally ripped the door (or what was left of it) off the hinge and threw it to the ground. Dana laughed about it and said the worst part was it showed how cheap their doors are.
Rashad made a good point though of wondering why Rampage is so mad when the entire season he hasn’t seemed to really care about coaching. Is it that he’s mad at the coaches he picked and how they can’t seem to get the fighters in the right spot to win? At least Rampage felt stupid for his tantrum afterwards.
Once again back at the house the guys feel the need to pick on someone. This time the target is Marcus with a picture drawn and stuff written on it. It’s kind of no wonder the guys have been trying to provoke each other since there really hasn’t been drama in the house like some past seasons. Marcus ended up flipping out a bit about it.
At weigh-ins Rampage was attempting to be nice and make amends with Darrill. Which promptly went out the window when he decided to grab Darrill’s chest. A few of Darrill’s teammates stepped in to break the 2 up even though Rampage wasn’t mad about it even with Darrill getting in his face. It wouldn’t be Ultimate Fighter without some drama and tension between people on the show.
It’s either going to be 8 loses for Team Rampage or Marcus is going to pull off the win and save his team a little bit. The first round started with Mike actually rushing in on Marcus a bit and delivering a few punches. Mike was having no problem taking the fight to Marcus since he knows he has to get in close to take away the reach advantage that Marcus has. Marcus was able to grab Mike in the clench and throw him to the ground when Mike tried to go for a trip. The match turned into a small scramble on the ground with Marcus getting Mike’s back. Mike was then able to turn and get top position but left his arm in a spot where Marcus was able to put him in a submission and get him to tap.
Now Dana, Rashad and Rampage get the fun task of picking the fights for the next round. The fights for the next round are going to be Roy vs. Justin, Brendan vs. Jon, James vs. Matt and Marcus vs. Darrill. Rashad wasn’t too happy that Dana let Rampage pick who Marcus got to fight against. Now it’s time to see if Marcus can keep Team Rampage in it or if the semi-finals are going to be nothing but Team Rashad. Check it out next Wednesday at 10:00PM on Spike TV to see what happens.
