    I'm looking forward to the new Ultimate Fighter. The last few seasons have been a bit lackluster, but the tournament could possibly help make it a good season. I'm hoping for some fights like the Griffin Bonnar fight from the season one finale.

    That in my mind is still one of the best fights in UFC history! Even though I still think Bonnar won that fight, you could tell both guys gave 100%.

    Well you can argue that, but you can go back to many fights, seeing as Griffin is already in the equation, for example Griffin vs Ortiz, the fact is that the judges panel are poor.

    I think Griffin got screwed in the Ortiz fight. It is debatable who won the Bonnar/Griffin fight, but there is no debate that Griffin has had the best career so far. He stepped up to the plate and took down Shogun.

    Griffin has had a clean run apart from a staph infection that kept him out of a fight last year, but you can not compare it to the bad luck that Bonnar has had.
