Last night's episode of The Ultimate Fighter season 8 saw the victory of Team Mir over Team Nogueira as Vinny Magalhaes defeated Jules Bruchez by armbar submission. While the bout still offered some action, it was deemed quite boring by most UFC fans.
Vinny Magalhaes, for those who are not familiar, is a native of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil who currently trains with Team Quest and UFC star Dan Henderson in Temecula, California. He has spent the last 10 years perfecting his martial arts skills while also studying English, Spanish and Portuguese languages.

It's official. UFC and SpikeTV announced today that season 6 of The Ultimate Fighter will feature Team Serra against Team Hughes. This amounts to current Welterweight Champion Matt Serra leading his team of Ultimate Fighting hopefuls against past champion Hughes' team. In what has become a prevailing theme of The Ultimate Fighter, a future match between the coaches has already been booked for November, 2007.

The Ultimate Fighter has become a gem among the typical dredge of reality television. Smartly conceived, well-produced and playing completely to the large UFC fan base, The Ultimate Fighter brings it's SpikeTV viewers an eclectic collection of cast members every season.

After last week's drama when Jeremy Jackson was booted after he broke the rules by sneaking out of the house to hook up with a lifeguard, this week Shonie Carter's clowning around put him in the spotlight. At least, the spotlight outside the octagon.

The Ultimate Fighter 4
The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is, if you haven't heard, taking over the world. Well, maybe not the whole world, but the sports world for sure. At the very least the UFC is swiftly stealing away professional boxing's former audience. The Ultimate Fighter 4 is a reality show that acts as two separate 8-man tournaments, one for welterweights and one for middleweights. The beauty of The Ultimate Fighter is that, for an hour-long show, almost half the episode is always dedicated to that week's fight. It's a perfect second-tier reality show; the drama of different personalities living in the same house followed by a full-fledged octagon UFC match.

It's only been two episodes, yet I believe I've heard an off-camera Matt Serra yell, "Hamm-ah Fist Elbow" about 8,000 times. If you don't like blood this is not the episode for you.
Team Mojo has good team chemistry and are feeling confident after stealing the power with Shonie's episode one victory. Over a couple fire-pit meetings, Mojo gameplans the rest of the first round, creating match-ups they think they'll win.
