The Tuf coaches have just been announced;
The Smashes England v Australia - Ross Pearson v George Sotiropoulos
Im looking forward to the England series because hopefully I can relate to the fighters and get right into it. Hopefully there will be a good rivalry between us and the Aussies because theres no love lost between us lets be honest. But in terms of the actual coaches i'm not fussed about there choices. Sotriopolulos is ok and the more I see of Ross Pearson the less i think of him. He just doesnt seem to be kicking on.
TUF coaches - Roy Nelson v Shane Carwin.
I cant wait to see these 2 go at it. After the lack of banter and rivalry between Cruz and Faber the UFC has gone all out and put its biggest fool against the most serious guy in the UFC. These 2 already dislike each other and have been calling each other out for some time so hopefully we should see a return to exciting epiodes of TUF that arn't snoozefests...
Thoughts on the coaches and the series in general?

Yeah, agree regarding Pearson. Plus I don't get excited about fighters who don't finish and he's a UD man!
He's not got the biggest personality either so this might be a tad dull, but we'll see...
I said ages ago, that these are obvious choices for fighters in the same division and thought they would go with this, but I cant help but think there were better options...

When do these 2 start, and are they on FX / ESPN etc? More interested in the yanks show unfortunately, as Nelson & Carwin should be a lot more entertaining.
I gave the last TUF Live and TUF Brazil a complete miss, so hopefully this will be aired and it'll be decent.

Big country Nelson is probably one of the most underrated fighters he has great boxing and an amazing ground game
