the thing i LOVE about the blogs, are that they show backstage footage. It's amazing

Good to see Vaughan Lee of UTC signed to the UFC for 138 in the UK. He's the guy in yellow breaking the submission record at about 6:59 in this video blog. He can also be seen at FIGHT UK MMA you tube page last month putting on a submission in one of the bouts in his current win streak that may have contributed to this.

@UFCUKSTYLE Wasnt it a shin to the jaw? i thought it was a knee first but in the replay its his shin colliding with Shoguns Jaw.

i love this blog man... while watching this video.. i felt like.. a part, or working inside UFC . inside ring, before and after fight,.. and all.. i love this blog

Some amazing content in here, hope you make a point of putting more of that post fight hallway content onto dvd's or somewhere. Also the TUF tryouts were interesting enough to make it into the show somewhere. Would love to see the next phase where they use gloves.

Live the vlogs dana. Keep them coming because it's great for the sport

@carlsongracieteam What was that Brazilian guys record? im sure there's a few guys that have good references to get ahead but I remember Jon Fitch not getting picked for the first show and I think the second as well. Who knows, maybe the Brazilian guy only fought submission comps not mma fights.

Damn I wish we got to see a little more behind the scenes action for TUF on TV... i love this stuff.

@gunfighterdrummer THANK YOU! Finally someone knows what MMA is all about! Its not just stand-up brawling back and forth. Yeah, thats fun to watch and all, but where is the "Mixed" part of Mixed Martial Arts in that?

tryouts were friggin sick...you should record more of them.

Yeah more tryout vids please, that was good stuff.

i loved the tryouts they looked awesome

Nice Blog, keep'em coming(:

Very cool to see TUF pre-show. Thx Dana!

@DickDarlington85 What countdown video? I think you're thinking about the TUF 13 video, this is that TUF 14 tryouts and his name is Vaughan Lee.

Hmm J Lau coaching the next TUF? Thatd be sweet! Hope the next Vlog relates more to Saturday Nights Fights!

I really enjoyed this video.

Please, more out of the ring videos. reminds me of the pride days. those walks of shame were so emotional.

Dana, You should make your blogs an hour long!

Great vid! cant wait for TUF!!

Very nice to see Corey Hill!!! Hope he will get another chance in the UFC. I like his style a lot. Very unfortunate with that evil broken leg injury.

Great Blog..Cool to see Corey Hill, he always seemed like a cool guy. Guy in the yellow was showing some smooth floating jitz but then again we dont know how good his opponent was. Nevertheless he has skill....Wow!!! Clay Guida sleeping, didnt think it was in him.

what happened to nam phan vs leonard garcia? thought they were getting a rematch?

these blogs are awesome

Thanks Dana for sharing....looks fun n awesome!!!! :D

YEaaa!!! That's wassup man DANA WHITE is verry cool with us. He give us alut of free... I like that man. Keep it up please :)

where do u get the tickets for the weigh ins

AWESOME That ur showing us the swedes!

Very entertaining Vblog =D

is this tryouts for the ultimate fighter sesson 12?

The guy in the yellow rashgaurd is definitely making The Ultimate Fighter 14!!! Love him already!!!

@GBDazzler what exactly do they mean by record...cause he's he's 8-6? Wouldn't they have checked those before even calling them in to try out?

@carlsongracieteam is this true? where was the source of this information?

What channel is showing TUF in the UK?

Was that Benivedez and David Lauazo (can't pronounce his name)?

@MegaHorg I think he's not in the show. There is a countdown video that introduces all the fighters. One looks like him, but the tattoos doesn't match. Anyone knows his name by now?

@evkin117 what right do you have to see that? how many times have you defended the UFC title?

Prince Shogun, you are still the man! Be proud of what you have achieved in your career champ!

10:50 Is that Al Iaquitna from this seasons TUF? He's in the backround

holy shit any knows whos the guy in yellow in the first round for grappling? that dude was sick! LOL@ Clay Guida's excitement.

At 9:22 that is Jimy "The Kid" Hettes. His over all record is 11-0 with 10 1st round submissions and 1 in the 2nd round. I hope he makes because he is an absolute beast! Jimy also said that the guy he was about to grapple with was about 190 lbs. Dana asked him if he was 145 and he said ya. LOL. You can tell he is not.

Would love to see these try-outs as part of the TUF show, American Idol style!

at the start did he say the rematch between garcia and the korian zombie? did nam pull out? say it isn't so!

@SolomonSuperSoul that guy who pulled the 'record' number of submissions?

@sprays18 You mean Vaughen "Lee" Harvey (That what came up when I googled). Thanks for the name, I was about to ask for it. I expected his record to be near perfect, but I still hope he'll make it to the show.

@blood283 Wait, how do you know he didn't make it through? If that's the case there must be some very impressive guys there because Vaughn looked incredible!

@RatedRkoLegacy520 Things like the achilles tendon are really exposed in the leg and guys tend to put too much force into them just because a leg is stronger than an arm. The pain comes on really quick and tapping can be too late if you aren't careful.

sick free card Leonard Garcia vs Korean Zombie 2 alone is worth the watch everything else is gravy

is that a bong in the backround

may i ask what did dana mean when he about the people's records? like did he mean if there win and loss record werent that good that wouldnt cut for going onto the next round?

@intelDgamer Wonder if he made the show, he was great to watch

I don't really get it, what were they doing? Were they actually competiting or they were just demonstrating their BJJ with a trainer?

Is it just me, or was I the only one that noticed that Bruce Buffer said "It TIME! " hahahaha that was too hilarious lmfaoo

Was that Corey Hill in there?

What record are they talking about? mma, or grappling?

Woowww, the Swedish guy is a monster, I can't believe he cuts to 145. Like Dana said he should be fighting as a welterweight. And that guy in yellow is so sick!

@loves2sploosh because this is the tryouts four tuf 14. you watched tuf 13 which is 170lb not 145.

kid in the yellow was going for sick subs, excited to see him.

@MrWWEmatchesUploader Dude that's Vaughn Lee, he is fighting this week at UFC 138.

Would've liked captions to say who the guys were when they were rolling.

Are they exhibiting or actually full on sparring?

@kronker in a lot of grappling competitions your are not allowed to slam, and different rules apply to different organizations as well.. you gotta adjust... now this guys are also used to kick and hit, but they could hold themselves from doing it now, didn't they...

"you weigh 180 right now", "yeah with clothes" "oh with clothes I'm sorry" the level of sarcasm from dana haha

@SkyrimOwns the "onslaught" that you mention would not have happened if he would have thrown those kicks.

@signboyy its not about ignoring him i think its just not wanting to push someones buttons accidently or say something to somebody who probably doesnt wanna talk to anybody at the moment after you lose your belt..

Dana, more tryouts videos!

awesome grappling.. Dana you should do an ULTIMATE STRIKE FORCE FIGHTER FOR WOMAN.. since ufc and strikeforce are now together.. I'm sure there are plenty of woman fighters that would love to be come the next ultimate strikeforce fighter.. since there is no woman fighters in the UFC..

@youngflymista didn't it seem strange that Shogun didn't even make ONE leg kick!? one leg kick?!? Nothing that Jones did could've prevented Shogun from doing a leg kick (or whatever other kick for that matter)... Pretty strange..

@Azreck That's the weight they walk around at, both Silva and Alves probably diet down to about 200/185 respectively, and then cut that weight. The only guy I've heard of cutting 20+ pounds is Anthony Johnson, and he's been 5+ pounds over the weight limit twice because of it.

@TrannysoreassRex I love people like you, you brighten up my day and ease my insecurities about my own idiocy! Shogun is not a Pride failure, neither in Wanty, Nog, Mirko, Fedor.. & on, people get older, lose what they had in their prime, and hey in MMA fighters also lose! Shogun lost to a beast, he's as far removed from a failure as you'll find, Shogun is a Warrior and ten times the man you are buddy! God Damn I hate idiots who've blatently never fought degrading guys who deserv total respect!!

what is it with all the gun posters in the ufc office?

Lmfao at swedish guy "Yeah with clothes..." Never laughed so hard lol

Hardy vs Johnson - That's going to be an interesting one.

Who was that @ 8:45? He looks familiar.

Hey i hope the dude from sweden will get on the show :D

good blog

@signboyy I think they were being respectful and giving him space. It was a brutal fight for him i doubt he wants to stop and chat to people; just get to his locker room and take a breather. He'll be back though, anyone else would have been knocked out from that 1st flying knee or the shin kick to the face, but Shogun kept fighting! Heart of a champion.

Anthony Johnson vs. Dan Hardy!?? Hell yeahhhh

Guy in the yellow is Vaughan Lee. Trains at UTC Birmingam, England. BEAST!

@ThereIsAHeavenX oh, i completely agree that reach isnt everything. i was just saying what stupid reasoning it was that jones should move to heavyweight because he has such a huge advantage in the light heavyweight division. and its probably these people that believe that weight cutting isnt hard, its easy to knock someone out, bjj/wrestling isnt hard ur just laying there... (not u btw in case u thought i was insulting u).

anybody know the name of the guy in yellow, is he on TUF?

That IS a pretty damn decent Fight Night card.

we only want to see the Garcia vs Zombie rematch..my bet is best fight for 2011

@NarutoOwnsU Yeah, I'm trying to find who that guy is, his BJJ was unbelievable. I really hope he made the cut onto the show, want to see more from him!

@AndrewSkyMusic: He's been into MMA for years, trained at Xtreme Couture, done grappling, Muay Thai and Boxing believe it or don't. He's a huge fan and knows many of the fighters.

For those who talks about "the big 180 guy", here's some info for you. last 4 mma-bout took place @145 and 155lb. last run at the European sw cs was at 142lb. His name is Martin Svensson, google it or look him up on sherdog if you want.

thanks homie

@BigGee614 they do but they don't pay too much attention till after the grappling session, as dana said in the video after the grappling they'll send people off and then the people that make it through hit the pads then they'll get rid off more people then to interview ultimately the only thing that was holding him back was the record as he looked good on the pads as well.

Can't wait for TUF ....

is this his house? at the opening?

dana, your the man!

@MrWWEmatchesUploader Vaughan Lee is the guy in yellow and he's not on the show. He was clearly too good and is on the UFC138 card instead. Cant wait to see him live in action at NEC

@StuartJones3 Its great seeing him back and ok.

whats the yellow guys name im tired of everyone reffering to him as the yellow guy

i saw a guy in the background with a bc lions shirt..yeah represent BC baby

@sprays18 I don't know the guy so I can't truly comment but if he does then he will prob be a standout on this season of TUF

today is FRIDAY ???????

you guys should have gotten darren uyenoyama for tuf. droppin the ball tbh.

@intelDgamer Yes but he also only rolled with the same guy over and over again so.... Maybe his opponent's strong suit wasn't BJJ

I was just wondering.. Does the UFC provide free medical care for their fighters?
