| Post subject: | Reminder: "The Ultimate Fighter 13" tryouts slated for Thursday in Las Vegas |
As a reminder, UFC and Spike TV officials host an open tryout for the upcoming 13th season of "The Ultimate Fighter" on Thursday in Las Vegas. "TUF 13," which begins production in January with a tentative April debut date on Spike TV, features welterweight and middleweight fighters. The open tryouts take place at the Summerlin Ballroom at the Red Rock Resort (11011 Charleston Blvd.). Registration takes place from 8-9 a.m. PT (local time), and fighters will grapple and hit pads as part of the audition process. MMAjunkie.com will be on scene with a report from the tryouts. Whether trying out or going through the traditional application process, which is set up on UFC.com, fighters must be 21 or older and have at least three professional fights. UFC officials have not formally announced any other information about "TUF 13," including potential coaches and the tournament format. However, recent seasons have used a 28-man, 32-slot tourney. The initial 28 is reduced to 14 official cast members through an elimination round of fights, and two fighters who then lose in the following round earn second life in the quarterfinals as wild-card picks. "TUF," which debuted in 2005 and quickly became a driving force for the UFC's move into the mainstream, had launched the careers of more than 100 UFC fighters and has produced past champions such as Rashad Evans, Forrest Griffin and Matt Serra. The current 12th season features welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre and "TUF 1" semifinalist Josh Koscheck as coaches. The season also features lightweight fighters. "TUF" most recently featured middleweights in the 11th season and welterweights in the ninth season. Source: http://mmajunkie.com/news/21232/reminde ... -vegas.mma |
