Are any of you ZONErs, watching The Ultimate Fighter?

I do and am hooked. Just to bring you up to speed in case you don't watch. The Ultimate Fighter18 fighters who are split up into two teams. Each week the teams compete in a compitition to determine which team chooses the two who will fight. The loser leaves the house. [which is in its second season] brings together

It's like The Contender on steroids.

The guys who compete in Ultimate Fighting are real life tough guys. They usually have a strong background in wrestling, boxing and the martial arts. Many are experts in more than one discipline. And...

They. Love. To. Fight.

I'm not talking about sparing. Or working out. Or where you knock a guy down and then back up until he's on his feet. I'm talking about fighting... you know, FIGHTING!

This sport isn't for everyone. It's not even a sport that everyone can watch, let alone compete in.

Still, I have to admit, I tune in each week.
