Fighting Fedor. Honestly? They had the season of TUF that led to a title shot that I thought was kind of lame. Pointing out to me that MMA is not yet a sport but a sideshow. But at least the show was in the biggest organization in the world. This is a show in obscurity. The weakest division in the world of MMA (though 185 is in competition) is going to have a show to determine the best Heavyweight. It is an embarrassment. Lets create a show in 1990 called fighting the champ staring Mike Tyson. It would have been just as big of a joke.
Fedor pound for pound is the best and I am his biggest advocate. I saw the fight when he beat up on a 7 footer Hong Man Choi when Randleman dumped him on his head and he won both fight with a straight up Sambo arm bar. But honestly a reality show is exactly what MMA does not need.
MMA needs unified rules and a ranking system. MMA needs a place to fight that is not copyrighted like the octagon is.
MMA does not need a show that puts it back with the bearded lady, and the guy that can eat a bunch of hot dogs in a short amount of time.
MMA needs to be in the spotlight with MLB and the NBA. Or at least the NHL and Arena Football.
