Another season of The Ultimate Fighter reality show comes to a close this coming Saturday, December 3, and there’s a Brazilian in the running to be one of the champions of the show’s 14th season.
A native of the Brazilian state of Amazonas, Diego Brandão has been turning heads with his performances on the program. The featherweight, who boasts 13 wins in his 20-fight career, knocked out three opponents in the first round. He will take on the USA’s Dennis Bermudez in the grand finale this Saturday. The veteran Yves Edwards is another of the evening’s attractions.
In the lightweight final John Dodson takes on TJ Dillashaw, while the coaches of the blue and orange teams, Michael Bisping and Jason Miller, will do battle in the world’s most famous cage.
