TUF 18 Tryout Preview Pt. 3: Let’s Bring On the Men

For the past two weeks we’ve been taking a look at some of the women who will be trying out for the Ultimate Fighter’s 18th season, so I suppose it’s in the interest of equality to turn the spotlight on to some of the potential male contestants. What makes this a little difficult is that while we may only see 50 or so women try out, there will likely be 5 or 6 times as many men vying for one of only 8 spots. However, I was able to track down 3 men who will make their case to fight for glory, honor, and a six figure on the reality show’s latest edition. Let’s take a better look at this trio of bantamweights after the jump.

The Ultimate Revamp

What a Fall we’re having… The Ultimate Fighter’s ratings are at an all-time low, Dana White just said that we will “absolutely” see women in the UFC eventually, and everybody’s in a furor because  Chael P. Sonnen will not only be getting a TUF coaching slot opposite Jon Jones, but also a Light Heavyweight Title shot. Yes, everybody’s talking about something, but lets look past that.  Look past the attempt at hot-shotting The Ultimate Fighter’s ratings, look beyond what many see as a mismatch on the level of Bonnar Vs. Silva, and look to the 18th edition of The Ultimate Fighter.  There is a way to try to rebuild the franchise, and we’re going to take a look at it after the jump.
