Ultimate Fighter 11, brought to you by Mulholland Drive director David Lynch

Who the hell was the casting director for season eleven of The Ultimate Fighter? My guess is David Lynch, because this is the freakiest, douchiest, crash-test-dummiest group of fighters I have ever seen. I see at least one Dustin Hazelett, one Junie Browning and a couple of JT Taylors in the bunch. Not to mention a “published poet.” Seriously, read his and all the others’ bios over here. Although I suggest you skip that – most fight-related info is pretty meaningless at this point – and go over to Cage Potato, which has picked out a few humorous highlights, like this one:

Ben Stark was “a practitioner of the Orthodox Jewish religion until the age of 6,” which is about the most meaningless piece of biographical information one can imagine since it tells us about the religious choices he made before he was at an age where he was allowed to make choices about religion. He also breeds snakes though, and that’s pretty sweet.
