The upcoming 12th season of “The Ultimate Fighter” reality-competition series today begins production in Las Vegas in anticipation of its Sept. 15 debut on Spike TV.
Officials today announced the start of the show’s taping.
Additionally, they confirmed that – as with the current 11th season of the show – the lightweights-only season of the show features 28 fighters for the 32-man tournament.
Touted as a surprise format change with “TUF 11,” the field of 28 assures that two eliminated cast members get a second opportunity to reenter the tourney as “wild card” picks.
