Sorry folks for getting this recap out so late, but for me this work-week was like Royce Gracie/Ken Shamrock II, never-ending.

Episode 10 of “The Ultimate Fighter” opens with highlights of last week’s exciting Matt Brown/Amir Sadollah slugfest. We get to see and hear the other fighters’ reactions during that fight--- a lot of oohs and ahhhs and holy *hits. Matt Riddle talks about his jaw dropping, but as usual doesn’t add much useful insight in to the fight.

In fact, Riddle seems willing to try anything to stay relevant to the show. For the fourth episode in a row Matt Riddle’s changed hair colors. This week’s Doo- devil red. Way to make your face-time count Matt!

We also see Jeremy May acting like a petulant punk once again. After Brown’s hard fought battle, while recovering after a devastating loss, May decides it’s time to make Brown feel worse.

Instead of congratulating Brown or consoling him, he tells Brown of his wish for a rematch. He goes on and on about how he wished he had attempted a choke-hold like Amir did when Brown was pummeling him. May in pure punk form is relishing Brown’s defeat.

So, before we get to the final two quarterfinal matches: CB Dollaway vs Cale Yarbrough and Tim Credeur vs Dan Cramer- it seems Spike has some more Jeremy May drama in store for us.

TUF HOUSE (Jeremy May Gets His Comeuppance)

The drama begins in the kitchen with Matt Brown telling Jesse Taylor, one of the semi-finalists, and a couple of other teammates what May had said to him after his loss to Amir. Taylor is pissed at May’s lack of respect and begins to trash him,

“If he (May) is invited back to the UFC I will *hit in my hands and rub it on my face”

Then speaking as if May is right in front of him,

“You’re just a loser… dick, loser, broken nose bitch…”

The diatribe lasts a little longer, long enough for May to walk in on Taylor and his teammates. May heard enough that his facial expression looks like a soured pickle.

He confronts Taylor with indignation. This makes the other fighters laugh. May asks Taylor to be man enough to tell him to his face, instead of talking behind his back. That’s exactly what Taylor does. A physical confrontation is avoided for the moment (not sure why) only with the help of the Spike editors.

The kitchen is the same, but now May is sitting next to teammate Gerald Harris. May tells Harris how he is going to get under Jesse’s skin so bad that Jesse will take a swing at him and get kicked out of the house. Harris, who like the other fighters doesn’t really care for May takes a break from his cereal to warn him not to do that, especially since Taylor is in the Semis.
