Maxim Magazine recently conducted a brief interview with the coaches of the third season of The Ultimate Fighter reality show on Spike TV. Here's a transcript of that interview:

MAXIM: Hey, don't kill each other yet - save that for your rematch at the end of Ultimate Fighter 3. Ken, how do you plan to avoid taking another beating?

KEN: I've had a lot of time to look at how he beat me and how to not let that happen again. I've been doing this too long to be surprised. I know he's worked on his stand up striking too, but he can't go with me. He can not go with me.

TITO: Our last fight against each other, I gave him everything I possibly could. At the end of the third round, he felt it - and he knew it.

KEN: And that's my strength. He hit me with everything he could. He didn't hurt me, he cut me. He bruised me. I took everything he had. They stopped the fight because of the cut.

TITO: I'm young. I fought in 1997 with only 6 months training. I'm only 31, but learning everyday. Ken's, what - 42?

MAXIM: Ken, do you think Tito is underestimating you a bit?

KEN: No. He knows there's still some fire left in me. I may have lost a step or two, but I can still take him out - and he knows it.

TITO: That's the one thing about my fighting style, I never rest. I'm a cardio machine. And as he's dropped a couple of steps, I've gained a couple of steps.

KEN: That should make us even then.

TITO: People should get their money's worth from this fight. And there'll be a doctor carrying him out.

MAXIM: That's your prediction?

TITO: It ain't going 3 rounds.

KEN: No, it's not going 3 rounds.

Man I want to see this fight so bad but I would be upset if I spent all that money on it and it only went 1 round or even shorter than that.

As big of a fan as I am of both of these guys I don't see Ken standing a chance against Tito. Tito looked good in his last few fights and I think he'll be more than ready for the rematch, I see this thing going two rounds with Tito getting the win again.
