TUF 22 kicked off on Wednesday, September 9th with a bevy of opening round action. Amid a lot of solid scraps, one performance outshone the rest as BJJ grappler Ryan Hall made short work of Johnny Nunez.
TUF is always a bit of a strange place when it comes to the fights fans get to see on TV. Fewer rounds, less preparation, and changes in training environment and weight cutting tend to bring out different things for different fighters. One of the big things fans tend to see is, just what is a fighter's go-to skill set. When they haven't had a full camp, aren't training for a specific opponent, what do they look for?
