On E!'s The Soup, Mixed Martial Arts gets a flattering description, saying it involves skill and strategy, and how TUF is instead "one drunk dude asking another much bigger drunk dude to punch him in the face."

I saw that lol. I enjoy the Soup show, but I cringed when I saw TUF was on it. He can shred stuff if he wants, but he gave MMA a good defendin’.

I was surprised when he didn’t attack it for the tainted food – he’s made fun of TUF before, saying “What can go wrong when professional fighters get locked in a house with alcohol?”, but this bit was awesome – Clip of the Week!

hah I was thinking the same thing. I guess even they thought that was too much to even joke about.

The last time I saw them do anything about TUF was way back during the firs or second season, and it was the usual homo-erotic type thing. I think the guys were taking a bath together or something that made the joke really easy.

that clip still makes me laugh, such a nice clean punch with almost no effort. haha

I used to watch that when it was called “talk soup” and only made fun of talk shows…I need to start watching that again. Great show.
