UFC Vegas 35: Barboza vs. Chikadze - Unofficial Awards

Uncle Dana probably thinks I’m going to eat my words about TUF given both of the crowning TUF matches were fun scraps (at least he would think that if he knew I existed), but I’m not backing off. I still think TUF should have been left in the graveyard after the UFC transitioned over to ESPN. I’ll offer my congratulations to Ricky Turcios and Bryan Battle, but I’ll wonder why they opted to go that route when DWCS involves winning a single fight, utilizing their own coaches, and not being secluded for weeks at a time with multiple weight cuts in a limited window.
