I know it's boring but I hope the have at least one weight class of heavyweights....and not bloated lightheavyweights that will drop to LHW after the season, like a lot of the Brazilians

Didn't he refuse a potential deal with the UFC b/c KSW was paying him more? He'd probably need Kimbo+ money to do TUF.

I doubt it, there's not enough quality HWs over here.

He's been offered a UFC contract before & turned it down because he can make more in KSW, I doubt he goes after a TUF contract.
He may just be trying to leverage a better deal.
He did say "there initial offer"
30 G's a fight under his ksw deal
But he should consider the kind of money he can make if he gains popularity in the ufc

alot of guys won't take that chance...he's in a smaller talent pool where he's a big shark making good money
if he goes to the UFC he'll take less and face WAY tougher competition...for the potential to make more
Even if most of the guys are rather unknown, there is alot of talent coming out of Europe that could bring in a few decent fighters. I myself don't even watch TUF anymore

A lot lot lot more if he were to become a star here in the US.
But I get it . More just wishful thinking on my part.

I would be OK with more international TUF's. The US version I think has run its course here. There are enough regional shows for the UFC to scout from.

Lol I was just kidding. I actually like the international tufs, especially in Europe with so much untapped talent

It will help a lot with all the international shows the UFC has planned. Get guys some TV time, make fans like or hate guys and they will tune in to watch them fight.
P.S. I love you.

Love you to bby <3
Stevie Ray is interested in this, says he'd even go up to 185 for it. He fights at 155 but I've seen him at a couple local shows recently & he's a decent sized WW just now, would probably be one of the favourites if the show does LW or WW.
