It's all about the ratings and captions/subtitles for half the show just wouldn't cut it.

Maybe something like Chuck Liddell or even Forrest Griffin as the US coach, and Anderson Silva as the Brazil coach? It also wouldn't suck IMO if they could somehow cobble together a USA vs Japan TUF, with Lyoto Machida as the Japanese coach, and his next scheduled American opponent [Evans, Jackson, Griffin, whoever] as the US coach. Finally, I would love to see TUF always be 2 fights per episode. This would somewhat minimalize the "Real World-ness" of the show, and allow the UFC to feature more talent.

They could show 2 fights an episode. The BEST way would be to have 24 guys in the house, from 6 different countries (4 from each country). They could show 2 fights an episode.

There has to be a thousand potential superstars down there just waiting for a chance to be the next A. Silva or Machida. Maybe the language would make it tough, but I watch for the fights, not the grade school drama. While it could possibly be a blowout, the best idea for a season would be Brazil vs world or USA.

And he went the distance with those guys...maybe it was the accountant like appearance, the rat-looking goatee, or just being a total b%^&$ on the show that disguised it!

While I find Bisping abrasive as Hell to watch outside the Octagon, I have a lot of respect for him as an MMA fighter, and the way he's had to adjust to being the "face of MMA" in his home country. That's a Hell of a lot of responsibility to put on any man's shoulders, and IMO he's done pretty well so far. Hopefully next go round he'll bring over some middleweights and LHWs, and maybe it'll take place at a house somewhere in the UK. I think watching the TUF contestants run rampant thru one of those museum-looking British manor houses would make for great TV. I would welcome another US vs UK TUF.
