TUF 12 Episode 4 Recap: Bruce Leroy Pushing Buttons
The episode starts off with a look at last week’s fight and then the fighters in the house give their thoughts. Team Koscheck fighter Sevak Magakain wasn’t too pleased with “Bruce Leroy” Alex Caceres yelling “Fuck him up” and beat the shit out of him” during the fight.
In the locker room of Team GSP Michael Johnson talks about fighting in front of Mike Tyson, who then give the team a talk on confidence.
Back at the house the fighters were gathered outside talking about Bruce Leroy and his action during the fight. Team Koscheck was obviously not happy and Jeff Lentz called it ignorance, while Magakain said it was disrespectful.
While all this is happening Caceres can hear them and he finally confronts team Koscheck. Talks quickly heat up between Magakain and Caceres, who gets more and more personal. Magakain stands up and says he’ll beat Caceres ass “in the cage” to which Caceres replies, “so pick me”.
Magakain sits back down but Caceres just won’t let it go, dropping several censored words and ended with “eat a dick” that send Magakain completely over the edge and charging. Nam Phan gets up in time to grab and stop Magakain and get him into the house to chill out.
Georges St-Pierre is now parking next to a fire Hydrant so Koscheck can’t prank him.
Koscheck calls St-Pierre a nerd that talks like a robot, questions how can they lose to him.
Fight Announcement time and team GSP choose Kyle Watson to fight team Koscheck’s Andrew Main. Josh Koscheck again think the match up is a good one for his guy……
Koscheck continues to try to get inside the head of St-Pierre as he came out in his underwear, claiming they were going to be training in Speedos like GSP today. St-Pierre just laughs it off and leaves, much to the displeasure of Koscheck.
