Ultimate Fighter 5 casting question?

I know Joe Lauzon already had a fight in UFC against Jens Pulver of all people & beat him. So my question is why compete on this show especially since you would figure by beating Jens Pulver in his return he would've punched his ticket to instant stardom?

He did knock him out in the 1st round in less than a minute & I know they started filming TUF5 well after that fight took place at UFC 63 in September of '06. Would it be funny if he ended up on Jens team?

    Actually a couple of photos leaked out which showed the fighters and coaches wearing matching shorts and Joe Lauzon is on BJs team, it will definatly add to the drama of the show, and if I remeber correctly Nathan Diaz (Nicks brother) is on Jen's team. I only recognized a few others and I dont remeber any other teamates, but I know the I colors are different, Pulver's team colors are yellow and purple.

    The reason he is doing the show is for the guaranteed contract if he wins.
