A Champion Will Be Crowned

For the first time ever, The Ultimate Fighter competition will determine a champion. In a groundbreaking new season, 16 of the top 115-pound female fighters in the world will be hand-picked to form a new women's strawweight division in the UFC. The fighters will live together in the house, train under coaches Gilbert Melendez and current lightweight champion Anthony Pettis, and battle it out in a tournament-style bracket. In the end only one woman will be crowned champion, and earn the first-ever UFC strawweight belt.
