“The Ultimate Fighter” is back for its 32nd season, marking 19 years since its debut in 2005. While the concept has evolved, the format has stayed largely the same.
This season features 16 fighters across two divisions, split into teams coached by two UFC champions. From the first episode to the finale, these fighters will eat, sleep, and train together, all vying for a chance to compete in the UFC Octagon and secure a six-figure contract with the promotion.
The 2024 edition, filmed at the UFC APEX in Las Vegas, highlights a riveting flyweight rivalry between Alexa Grasso and Valentina Shevchenko. These two have already shared the cage twice, with Grasso stunning Shevchenko at UFC 285 in March 2023 to claim the flyweight belt. Their rematch at ‘Noche UFC’ ended in a draw, setting the stage for a thrilling trilogy bout.
Tune in to witness the next generation of UFC fighters rise through the ranks under the mentorship of two of the sport’s biggest stars.
