On the eve of the premiere of the new edition of 'The Ultimate Fighter'(TUF), Dana White pointed out reasons for fans to follow the program. According to the UFC president, there was no lack of rivalry between Conor McGregor e Michael chandler, coaches chosen as protagonists of the reality show. The boss indicated a hostile atmosphere among the athletes during the recordings.
“There were moments when the climate got hot. It happened for a few days because what makes the 'The Ultimate Fighter' Exciting is the pressure between the stars. They (McGregor and Chandler) are not only competing athletes, but also coaches. There is a reputation at stake. If you are the coach, you want your pupil to win”, said White, in an interview with 'The Mac Life'.
Ahead of TUF 31, Conor and Michael have a fight planned and should face each other in 2023. The clash, however, has no confirmed date or location.
The debut of the new edition of 'The Ultimate Fighter' is confirmed for this Tuesday (30). Fans will be able to follow the chapters on 'UFC Fight Pass', the organization's platform.
