The heavy touted scrap between Chael Sonnen and Wanderlei Silva is supposed to happen on this episode. Here’s our Ultimate Fighter: Brazil 3 Episode 6 recap:
It really is amazing that Team Silva is undefeated in challenges and fights.
Wanderlei is late to the next fight announcement. When he showed up, Chael said he smelled like he was drunk. The heavyweight fight is Rick vs. Job.
Wanderlei says Job is the weakest heavyweight.
Wanderlei says he was late because he was at a doctor’s appointment.
Wanderlei says they are winning because their workouts are tough. They try and simulate real fight scenarios and throw many guys at each other. Jollyson was grappling with Rick and took a knee to the forehead and was cut right above his eye. He needed stitches. Wanderlei told his team to not mention it to the other team.
Their team challenge is called the typewriter. Using a contraption, they have to write TUF: Brasil legibly. The are all holding a separate rope which centers on a writing instrument. Finally, Team Sonnen won something. Team Silva has to stay locked in the house while Team Sonnen has a pajama party with the Octagon girls.
The Octagon girls are in semi-night gowns with shorts, while the fighters are wearing actual pajama tops and bottoms. Peregrino is the life of the party. You know it had to turn into a pillow fight.
Gabi Garcia came to Team Silva’s camp to help them train. She’s a jiu jitsu champ and she’s an enormous woman. She dwarfed Wanderlei.
Chael says that Job is tops in heart and determination, which might also mean that he’s not great with technique. Rick says all his fights have ended in the first except for one.
At weigh-ins, Wanderlei starts taunting Chael and spits on the ground near him. Chael says he’s been challenging him for years and only now is Wanderlei interested in the fight. Wanderlei says he knows the date of their fight, but Chael doesn’t. Chael said he’d like to know and wishes they could talk and say hello to each other. Wanderlei says that he doesn’t want to be his friend and gives him several big FU’s. Wanderlei says they’ll fight now instead and claps near Chael’s head. Chael pushes him and it’s on. By the way, Chael’s fighting in jeans and flip flops. Wanderlei throws a slap punch and Chael ducks underneath it and shoots and takes him down. Both teams swarm and there’s several guys who try to take cheap shots at Chael since he’s on top.
Chael’s shirt got pulled off him. Someone jumped on Wanderlei to protect him after Chael was pulled off him. Wanderlei wanted to keep going, but left.
Dida on Team Sonnen is the one who took the cheap shots at Sonnen and took his jersey. He said it was priceless to be able to hit him. Wanderlei says he preaches non-violence, but everyone has limits.
Rick is 223 and Job is 250 at the weigh-in.
Richardson “Rick Monstro” Moreira vs. Job “Cabo Job” Kleber
Rick nearly lands a haymaker right off the bat and the force of it knocks Job back, just enough for Rick to take him down. It was really his bicep that caught him. He got side control and then mount and started to land shots, but Job turned giving up his back. Rick missed the opportunity and Job was on top. The second he started throwing punches, Rich grabbed his arm and tapped him out with an arm bar. Completely mismatch.
Winner: Richardson “Rick Monstro” Moreira by way of 1st round submission.
Job broke his finger seconds into the fight, but fought with it. It was popped in after the fight.
Silva’s team is still undefeated and Chael says that he wouldn’t change anything. His guys come to fight and they fight hard.
