The Ultimate Fighter 10 | The Heavyweights Semi Finals
Opening the episode…Kimbo Slice turns down the fight against James McSweeny.
Risking his credability as a fighter because he says he’s only at 40 percent with his knee.
He says it wouldn’t be fair to his family, his fans or anyone that wants to see him fight because he wouldn’t be able to give 100%.
“I never thought Kimbo Slice would turn down a fight, but I respect him for doing it.”
–Dana White
Matt Mitrione decided to fight and the doc cleared him, so it’s on with McSweeny. James says he’s READY!
Scott Junk gets some bad news. The doc says he torn his retina and might not ever fight again.
DIZZZAMN! Marcus “Big Baby” Jones straight lost it. The nicest guy in the house felt like he need to defend his friend Scott Junk because Junk might not have the chance to fight again. When Junk fought Matt Mitrione he accidently got a poke in the eye and it tore his retina.
That’s why the Doc said Junk might not ever fight again because there would be a chance he could go blind.
Marcus wanted to put the Beat Down on Matt and stated he just wanted to choke him, let him come to and then start pounding on him and then break his arm. So he could feel what Junk was going through.
Marcus “Big Baby” Jones is a guy that you want to be your friend.
Junk finds out that the surgery was a success and that he can fight again, but its not recommended.
After the weigh-ins James McSweeny looked like he was going to rip Matt Mitrione head off. Very intense weight-in and then McSweeny shoves Mitrione and starts yelling…they are broke up by teammates and coaches.
James McSweeny vs Matt Mitrione
-James comes out throwing the leg kicks and Matt is a little standoffish. McSweeny finally lands a good punch and I think that wakes Mitrione up. Mitrione came back with some good hard combos that I think dazed McSweeny.
-McSweeny quickly came inside and locked up with Mitrione and took him down. Mitrione trys to get an ankle lock, but McSweeny gets out and sets in a guillotine choke and Mitrione stands up leaving his neck exposed even more and McSweeny drops and sinks it in tight and Mitrione taps out.
Marcus Jones vs. Darril Schoonover
-Marcus comes out with a vicious leg kick and Darril throws a few jabs and then Marcus throws him down with extreme force. Marcus Jones just dominates Darril on the ground trying to get a kimura and keeps getting his ground and pound on. He eventually lands two big blows on the ground and knocks Darril out.
After the fight Marcus is very happy…he says he wants to do this for a long time and live his dream. He can’t believe he’s here fighting. He said, “If you seen my trying to throw a punch a year ago, you would laugh.”
Once again, Rashad and Rampage starts getting into it..like always, but nothing new.
The pranks continue…
Team Rampage once again pulls a prank. They paint Team Rashad’s locker room completly pink and put tons of pink stuffed animals in there with a disco ball. Rampage actually really likes one of the stuffed animals and won’t leave it alone.
Team Rashad just laughs about it when they walk in, but then Brenden Schaub says, “I have to warm up in this damn room before the fight!”
so when he tries to get out he can’t. He pretty much loses it because he said he is claustophobic and him and James start throwing bows for real. James eventually gets him in choke and starts yelling, “Calm down man.”
James McSweeny vs. Roy Nelson in the first Semi-Finals fight.
McSweeny says right before the commercial break…”You do not want to turn off your tv sets, you’ll want to see this one. Trust me!”
-McSweeny comes out controlling the Octagon and setting the pace. He lands some good shots on Roy’s chin and starts motioning Roy to bring and gets a little cocky. Roy throws a big right and stuns McSweeny and then takes him down. Roy gets him pinned down and starts landing big shots on McSweeny’s head and the Ref stops the fight.
It’s gonna be hard for anyone to get out from under Roy “Big Country” Nelson if he gets you down and gets on top of you.
Roy Nelson is the first Heavyweight going to the Finale on Dec 5th, 2009
AND…..ONCE AGAIN Rashad and Rampage get into it again….These two better put on a good fight for the trash talk they’ve been displaying.
It will be nice if one wins in a dominate fashion..like a straight knocked out cold ending, like the Henderson and Bisping coaches fight.
The tension is building for Rampage Jackson. He says he really needs Marcus to win, because he feels like he wins too. That would stop Rashad from having both fighters from his team in the Finals.
Rampage really looks nervous and he’s not even fighting.
Next Semi-Final fight was Marcus Jones vs. Brenden Schaub
-They both came out throwing blows and Marcus slammed Brenden. Then he got side control quick and then full mount. Marcus wasn’t really wasn’t letting his hands fly when he had the full mount and somehow Brenden got out and stood up.
-Marcus slips and takes a hit to the chin and then responds with a huge knee, that looked like it should have dazed Brenden, but it didn’t. Brenden came in and landed a huge right and knock Marcus down and gets on top and starts landing big shots that kncocks Marcus out.
Marcus says that this day is probably the last day he will fight because he don’t want to put his wife through it anymore.
Well, after the show they announce he decides to fight again…and guess who he’s fighting….yep you guessed it! Marcus “The Darkness” Jones vs Matt “Meathead” Mitrione.
WHOA!! You DO NOT want to miss this Saturday DEC 5TH. It’s going to be off the hook with really big fights and THEY ARE FREE ON SPIKE!!
Until then… Stay tuned for the Fight Card for the The Ultimate Fighter 10 | The Heavyweights Finale
