Fantasy TUF 10: Episode 4

After the biggest fight in the history of "The Ultimate Fighter" history, it's little surprise that Roy Nelson vs. Kevin "Kimbo Slice" Ferguson is still a hot topic of conversation on this week's fourth episode of "TUF 10."
After again watching Nelson smother Ferguson in the crucifix position and earning the TKO victory, their fellow cast members weigh in on the bout.
Matt Mitrione and Darrill Schoonover are impressed – by Kimbo. But as most of the fighters admit, Kimbo just had too much to learn about the ground game too quickly and couldn't overcome such an experienced opponent.
After cutting back to the action immediately after the fight, Nelson takes a victory lap around the cage and thanks a handful of guys for loudly counting out the unanswered blows that ultimately ended the fight. (Nelson, in fact, discussed the strategy before the fight and said that by audibly counting the blows, a referee has no choice but to stop a fight.)
The comment, though, infuriates rival coach Quinton Jackson, who says he "can't stand that fat mother [expletive]." You know, because if there's anyone who simply won't tolerate goofing around, it's the buttoned-up and straight-laced Rampage.
Now that the Kimbo show is over, Rashad announces that Brendan Schaub will fight Demico Rogers.

(Team Tammy's) Brendan Schaub (Coach Rashad) vs (Team Roy's) Demico Rogers (Coach Rampage)

The competitors head to the cage, get their last-minute pep talks, we check out the tale of the tape (both guys are 6-foot-4 with 4-0 records), Dana White handles the introductions, and then referee Josh Rosenthal gets things underway.
No touch of the gloves, and Demico shoots early for the takedown. Brendan locks in a guillotine while on his knees, rolls over but pops back to his feet and lets go of the hold. The fighters briefly clinch before heading to the center of the cage, where Brendan works his jab. The fighters swing wildly before Demico shoots and gets his takedown. Brendan, though, ties him up and prompts the referee to issue a warning to get busy. Demico postures up but lands little as Brendan defends from his back. Demico, though, gets through an elbow and then passes to half guard. Demico lands a couple nice forearm strikes from the dominant position but is bucked off his opponent when he tries to catch a breather. Brendan immediately takes the top position and delivers some ground and pound and a lunging right from the standing position. Brendan then swiftly locks in an anaconda choke and forces Demico to tap midway through the first round.
Sadly, no one from Team Rampage, Rampage included, enters the cage to tend to Demico. As he gets to his feet, Rashad and his coaches give him an embrace and let him know he was a game competitor.
"You know, all the things you're supposed to tell someone who lost to build them back up," Rashad says.
Rampage sits outside the cage and complains of his bad luck and criticizes Demico for getting tapped out. Rashad is really bothered by Rampage's complete disinterest in his own fighter.
"That's horrible," he says.
Rampage finally takes the time to talk to Demico and says "that's why I don't believe in passing guard and all that stuff." He then walks away and says he needs a meeting with his coaches.
Rampage, down 4-0, criticizes his coaches for telling Demico to pass guard since he's "too green."
Back in the Team Rashad locker room, the team is celebrating. Brendan, though, says he's a little disappointed that he wasn't more dominating but is happy he got the win without an injury.

-(Team Tammy's) Brendan Schaub def. (Team Roy's) Demico Rogers via Anaconda Choke in Round 1 for 10pts.
