The newest international edition of the reality show The Ultimate Fighter, which will pit Canadian and Australian athletes face to face, already had its first important definition this Friday (14). The Ultimate organization announced that former middleweight title challenger Patrick Côté and former XFC champion Kyle Noke will be the program's coaches.
The division chosen for the edition was up to 77 kg, or welterweight category. Tests for the cast that will make up the reality show, which will air in 2014, will begin in September, in the cities of Toronto (Canada) and Sydney (Australia). From then on, competitors for places on the program will be eliminated stage by stage, until there are 28 fighters left who will participate in the TUF elimination phase.
Canadian Patrick Côté, 33 years old, was runner-up in the fourth season of The Ultimate Fighter. “The Predator”, as he is known, has a record of 19 wins and 8 losses. Like his rival, Australian Kyle Noke was also a participant in an edition of the reality show, the eleventh. “KO”, as he is nicknamed, has a record of 20 wins, six losses and one draw.
