I assume his management would prefer to have him sign a contract

straight off, rather than going through TUF, but Mamed Khalidov would be a sweet addition (and a heavy favorite) to the show.

Does he speak English? I’ve never seen an interview of his before.

Mamed is signed with SF, I believe.

Emmanuel Newton should try out for sure. I think he’d do well, if not win the LHW part of the show.

I’m curious what grounds the creator of this list had for choosing some of these people.

A 205 pound Ricco Rodriguez should make his way onto the show.

Exactly what I was thinking...

He would rape the season dry.

Get a bit of Glover Teixeira action happening

This shirt is "dry clean only", which means it's dirty.

LOL, if Glover gets on the show…. he’ll wipe out the show. His grappling is unbelievable.

People have been waiting on him to break out for two or three years now.

lol I have no problem with this and he also knocked out Soko. I’ve been high on him for a while.

ANTONIO MCKEE....

The man has a personality that would totally rub people the wrong way, and he’s a beast. Haters of the man already will tune in to hope he gets owned while I’ll rejoice.

MELVIN MANHOEF PLEASE!

Too bad he’s already contracted to MFC.

And he’s champion on top of that.

Ah no to McKee. I’m sitting through this season of boring ass fights, I don’t want another if I can help it. They should just bring McKee into the UFC, give him to Gray Maynard make him lose. Give him to Gray Maynard again, make him lose. Send him home.

lol they can bring in Manhoef on the condition they have a shot of him in his pitch black room where you can only see his silohuette and those scary fucking eyes…pacing.
