The Ultimate Fighter: Team Jones vs. Team Sonnen is an upcoming installment of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC)-produced reality television series The Ultimate Fighter.[1]
The series was officially announced by the UFC in October 2012 with current Light Heavyweight Champion Jon Jones coaching opposite Chael Sonnen.[2] The two coaches are then scheduled to meet in a title fight on April 27, 2013 at UFC 159.[2] This move drew considerable criticism from MMA critics and fans alike, as many felt Sonnen - who had previously lost his last match - had not done enough to earn a title shot.[3][4][5][6]
This season will be the first to air on Tuesdays, after The Ultimate Fighter: Live and The Ultimate Fighter: Team Carwin vs. Team Nelson's failure to generate the desired ratings for FX on Friday evenings.[7]
Amped for this can't believe its starting so soon.
