Last night on TUF were the two semi final fights that determined who would be fighting on SpikeTV's TUF finale this Saturday. And rest assured, they were two very good fights.
Ramsey Nijem (Team Dos Santos) vs Chris Cope (Team Lesnar)
Chris Cope has been sort of the underdog this entire season, with everyone now realizing he could be a dark horse contender. He's kind of like Forrest Griffin, jack of all trades but a master at none, although he does have great takedown defense.
In this fight, Ramsey did a good job mixing between his striking and his takedown attempts. He was unsuccessful in fully taking Chris down in the entire fight, seeing as Chris popped back up after a takedown, but it kept Chris at bay. His striking was also more accurate.
He is constantly putting pressure on Cope the entire fight until he scores a combination that sends Cope to the matt and forces the ref to intervene. Ramsey picks up the TKO win.
Chuck O'Neil (Team Lesnar) vs Tony Ferguson (Team Lesnar)
This whole fight was supposed to be a grudge match for Chuck, after seeing how Ferguson acted when he was intoxicated. However, Chuck was never really in this fight, Ferguson was a crisper and faster puncher and spent 2 rounds softening up Chuck before dropping him in the 3rd round. Tony Ferguson wins by TKO.
