Dexter, is that you?

Is it just me or does Jason Guida look like the serial killer detective on Showtime?

If the guy who played Dexter were a good bit goofier looking maybe.

no its not just you

Hmm.

Cagepotato.com reported a few weeks ago Jason Guida didn’t make weight and wouldn’t be on the show. . .he’s still listed, then?

Jason Guida is a creepy looking bastard. It would not surprise me at all if they found bodies in his basement and human flesh in his freezer one day !!!!!

Seriously

I was just thinking, “Who would have thought that Clay was the normal looking one…”.

by mythbuster on Sep 16, 2008 7:43 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

The Guida family has to be the best looking family in all of MMA and the universe.

I think we figured out a while back that he didn’t make it into the house (Guida), due to the Adrenaline fight date and the TUF filming dates.

Thats very true I did not even think about fighting at the Adrenaline show.

by Shocbomb on Sep 16, 2008 2:30 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Records?

Sherdog lists Guida with a 17-17 record. And Lance Evans as a 2-2.

I don’t know why these guys are getting listed as 26-13 and 4-2

by bloodmoney on Sep 16, 2008 2:12 AM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Sherdog isn’t exactly the official record keeper of the sport.

by Richard Wade on Sep 16, 2008 3:16 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I think Sherdog is more accurate than spike here

Guida had right at a .500 record when he fought Russow on the Adreneline show. It’s standard practice for spike/TUF to build up records. What was Corey Hill’s record supposed to be when he fought on TUF?

I could be mistaken but I’m pretty sure it was 1-0 pretty much the same as what Sherdog Fightfinder has it. It was less than 2 whatever it was and he was pushed as the TUFer with no prior training from the few shows I watched.

by natyong on Sep 16, 2008 11:34 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Corey Hill record

Corey inflated his own record, NOT Spike or TUF. During the season he ultimately admitted he was not 7-0 or whatever we was claiming and had really only had one professional fight prior to the show. (And it shows in his recent UFC performance.)

I’m sure Jason Guida could be a monster, but he is hilarious looking – in that picture at least.
