announced Friday morning. According to Brian Martin of the Los Angeles Daily News, the December 11 finale of The Ultimate Fighter's 22nd season will host a critical lightweight bout between Khabib Nurmagomedov and Tony Ferguson.
For hardcore MMA fans, this is an absolute treat.
Nurmagomedov broke into relevance at UFC 148, when he handily defeated sturdy veteran Gleison Tibau. He stormed his way into the top 10 in 2013 by thrashing Strikeforce import Pat Healy and seemingly lined himself up for a title shot with a dominant win over Rafael dos Anjos.
