Before TUF Live finalist Al Iaquinta even entered the Octagon against Michael Chiasa at tonight’s TUF Live Finale, the straight-faced lightweight walked away 50k richer. During the night’s preliminary card the UFC announced the TUF Live season awards, voted on by the fans.
Coming off the Miles Jury vs. Al Iaquinta bout last week that saw Team Faber secure their first win, Coach Urijah Faber selected Jeremy Larson of team Cruz to face Michael Chiesa of team Faber. Cheisa has been itching to fight since coming back to the house after attending his father’s funeral and looked to keep the control with team Faber. Larson was the last pick by Dominick Cruz and what better way to show it was a mistake then by winning back control for Team Cruz.
The 13th season of the Ultimate Fighter opens up with an introduction to coaches Brock Lesnar and Junior Dos Santos. The two will face each other at UFC 131 on June 11th with the winner getting a shot at Cain Velasquez and his heavyweight championship belt.
