The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) kicked off the welterweight portion of the show’s 33rd season with an entertaining slugfest.
Team Cormier Sought First Victory In TUF Competition
Coming off the heels of a dominant performance in the opening contest of the season in last week’s TUF episode, Team Sonnen secured the lead over Team Cormier when Joseph Morales handedly submitted current Legacy Fighting Alliance (LFA) champion Eduardo Martinique in a single round.
Seeking to put themselves further on the board in Tuesday’s TUF, Sonnen chose his own Richard Martins to combat Cormier’s Daniil Donchenko in the first welterweight clash of the season.
