Looks like the 115 division will be debuting earlier than expected with Cláudinha clashing heads with the Jellybean at UFC Fight Night 45 in Atlantic City.

I'm officially stoked! (Especially as Cláudinha will fight for the belt sooner rather than later).

It's strange to me that Gadelha won't be in the first women's strawweight title fight, she's easily top 3 if not the best. Does the winner of the TUF tournament also win the inaugural belt? I'm confused how this works out.

Yep. Winner of TUF 20 becomes the champion.

Yup, as @Mike here said, finale is a title fight, which, as if even needed, puts the final stamp on this being the most awesome TUF season ever.

We got the cream of the crop talent-wise, some serious fan favorites, Showtime and Gil coaching leading into an epic title fight and a brand new division starts off with a bang. Perfect season to use to put TUF to rest (especially with that nice round season number).

Sadly, the UFC still think it's the best way to market new talent and fighters.

Yes.




The Ultimate Fighter: Team Pettis vs. Team Melendez (also known as The Ultimate Fighter 20) is the upcoming twentieth installment of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC)-produced reality television series The Ultimate Fighter.

The series was officially announced by the UFC in December 2013.[1] The coaches were announced in February 2014 after Gilbert Melendez re-signed with the UFC and stated he would coach opposite the current UFC Lightweight champion, Anthony Pettis.[2][3] This move drew criticism from MMA critics and fans, as some felt it was establishing a significant delay in Pettis' first title defense.[4] This season will feature all female fighters[1] and will be used to determine the first Women's Strawweight champion for the UFC


Eleven fighters were initially announced as already having been cast for the show in December 2013;[1] however, Claudia Gadelha, Juliana Lima, and Paige Van Zant were eventually removed from the cast due to being unable to make weight, not speaking English, and being too young, respectively. They will get a direct contract with the UFC despite their removal from The Ultimate Fighter.[6] Auditions were held in April 2014 to find the remaining eight contestants.[6]

Just give Tecia Torres the belt early, she's amazing.

Yup, she's like a female TJ Dillashaw ... full package compressed into that tiny frame ...

That said, I'm blinded by my complete and utter Jojo fanboyism, so she's taking it for Scotland and the Dinky Ninjas! WAR JOJO!
