The 16th season of The Ultimate Fighter titled The Ultimate Fighter Fridays: Team Carwin vs. Team Nelson premiered tonight with the 16 elimination bouts to finalize the cast of 16 fighters that will compete for the six figure contract.
Another 32 hopeful Mixed Martial Artists will once again step into the UFC Octagon for a chance at greatness and the six figure contract that comes with becoming the next Ultimate Fighter. The 16th domestic season of The Ultimate Fighter begins this Friday on FX and features fighters from the welterweights division.
The cast of 32 welterweights for the upcoming season 16 of The Ultimate Fighter dubbed “The Ultimate Fighter Fridays” have been released. Set to make its premiere in just two weeks and a day on September 14th special two-hour premiere will feature all 32 fighters in 16 elimination fights airing at 9pm ET/ 6pm PT on FX.
The two welterweights that will face off for the Maximum Fighting Championship’s welterweight title at tonight’s MFC 33: Collision Course made weight yesterday. Too bad the same could not be said for Edwin Dewees and Andrew Buckland.
Between Wilson Gouveia upsetting Dwayne Lewis and Antonio McKee’s missed weight debacle, the search for the next MFC welterweight champion got lost in the shuffle. Inside the Mayfield Conference Centre in Edmonton, Alberta and live on HDNet, MFC 32: Bitter Rivals featured two bouts that would determine who’d fight for the vacant welterweight title later this year.
Tonight Maximum Fighting Championship will hold their first event of 2012 with MFC 32: Bitter Rivals from the Mayfield Inn Trade and Conference Centre in Edmonton, Alberta. The event will also mark the promotions final card inside a ring as starting with MFC 33 they will begin permanently using a cage. The event was to feature a lightweight title fight in the co-main event but another fighter missing weight changed those plans.
