    Probably quite a few fighters who get rejected based on their audition tapes who in fact should probably be on TUF based on their level of ability more than others who do get on there. But it's not solely about the level of quality. Vaughan Lee also didnt get on but was then signed by UFC. They might of done same with Henderson and signed him up to WEC after seeing the tape

    I was rejected last season. They said the competition was too easy for me.

    They usually need at least one Armenian to fill their quota on TUF. You could of been the next Sevak Magakian or Chivitchian

    They called me the next Mousasi, except with tremendous TDD. John Dodson, Johnny Bedford, and TJ Dillashaw refused to participate in the show if they cast me. F*cked up sh!t, yo. I still haven't forgiven those guys.

    Alot of good fighters dont make to the interview phase i know some good bjj bbs that rolled guys up in the grappling portion and werent even passed onto the mitts. Im still not sure what they are looking for but its clear its not the most talented fighters.
