The only episode that reached this average was the premiere. Globo shared the lead with SBT, which registered 23% at the same time. The unofficial data was recorded in São Paulo.

The American version continues to establish new negative marks. Now called TUF Live, as the fights are shown live, the reality is in its 15th edition in the USA and has changed houses this season: the FX channel, part of the FOX group, replaced Spike TV, responsible for previous editions.

TUF Live airs on Fridays. The last episode, the 11th, had an audience of just 821 thousand viewers, the worst record in the history of American TUF. Of the 11 episodes so far, in five the audience was below one million viewers. It is worth remembering that the average per episode on Spike TV was 1,7 million.
