Gabe Ruediger was that pathetic guy on TUF a few years back who whined, complained and quit on the show after he couldn't make weight. If he has actually won five straight fights then maybe he has turned his life around and maybe he will be back in the UFC someday.

RunnerFan50, welcome to Caste Football!

G301, Gabe said that he leveraged UFC TUF for fame/exposure and not to take everything on the show as to heart. I don't know if that's legit, but he's had some success.

I remember BJ Penn mocking Gabe's whinning why cutting weight (in the sauna)...how Gabe was acting as if he was on his death bed. That was pretty funny!

Also Hulk Hogan's nephew Dave Bollea won his second fight and is now 2-0. Colt Tooms is only 20 so he has a long career ahead of him. he was 4-0 as anamateur and he trains with team quest in oregon.
