Wes Shivers

This season of the Ultimate Fighter features heavyweights including superstar street fighter Kimbo Slice. Coaches Rampage Jackson and Rashad Evans continually argue before picking teams. The first preliminary fight takes place.

Street-fighter Kimbo Slice races to learn all he can before he takes on former IFL champion Roy "Big Country" Nelson. And ex-NFL giant Marcus Jones causes trouble for Rampage.

Rampage scrambles to teach Kimbo new skills, while Team Rashad's Roy Nelson is deemed "uncoachable." Team Rampage picks the next matchup, pitting size against skills.

A fighter keels over at the house, giving Kimbo hope for a comeback. A member of Team Rashad spills the beans on their fight strategy. And, two more heavyweights do battle as Team Rashad tries to extend its winning streak.

Matt Mitrione and Scott Junk return from their fight, battered and bruised. In the last preliminary fight, Jones faces Mike Wessel. The quarterfinal matchups are announced.

Zak Jensen faces mockery at the house and problems in training. Matt Mitrione tests Rashad's patience with an on-again/off-again shoulder issue. Rampage looks to break his losing streak in the fifth preliminary fight.
