Would this be a possibility? With the two facing each other in a rematch? It woud be a fantastic show, maybe USA vs Brazil like USA vs UK in TUF 9.
Give me your thoughts on this, I'm really curious...

Eh I'm not a fan of having the title wrapped up for month because of a tv show.

ufc would never risk loosing ratings by putting silva on that show.. ed sores would have to translate all his interviews! lol american fans want to hear the fighter.. not ed or captions at the bottom.

I would watch that, for sure - although I fear it might become "The Chael Sonnen Show, featuring The Ultimate Fighter" - and I think the US vs Brazil idea is great. Like Auto says, however, I'm also not too keen with having title fights delayed like this - not keen on GSP/Koscheck doing the new TUF and so that fight doesn't go down for months.

Plus, I still think Vitor will get the next shot and then Sonnen again (assuming Anderson beats Vitor).

I know we're only supposed to vote once, but what's a little election rigging between friends? :P

I would totally be down with Nog v Couture for Brasil v US. That would be an awesome show :) Hell, Couture should be a coach no matter what :P

A Chael Sonnen (R-OH)-coached TUF would be the greatest season ever.

Make it happen, Spike!

I wouldn't want to see Anderson and Sonnen on TUF. Editors will make this just about who talks what and I think the show should be a little more about training and the guys who are there without all the drama. I like however the idea of Brazil vs USA but I would rather have Wanderlei as Coach for Brazil and someone other than Sonnen for the USA.

Wanderlei vs Couture (Brazil vs USA) would be great as well!!! Had not thought about that one!

I would not mind a rematch between Sonnen and Silva in the future but not via TUF.

I think there should be rather experienced well trained guys in TUF who speak English, so we will not get some translator talking through the words of someone like Silva. I am not sure how well Wanderlei's English is but I think it is a lot better than Silva's. Plus the bonus would be that Wanderlei is a well respected experienced fighter. Couture as well so I would not be against that.

That is also why I do not like Koschek to be the trainer. He at times showed that he does not take all the rules seriously and acted his way to a win a few times. That to me is not a role model and thus should not train others on worldwide TV. Randy is the best role model for UFC ever and I think Wanderlei is indeed one of the better fighters as well so I really like that idea. Maybe at times they can let Sonnen and Silva do a workshop ;)
