Friday’s 11th episode of “The Ultimate Fighter: Live” features the
season’s final two quarterfinal fights, but the most newsworthy moment
of the night will involve one of the season’s coaches.
As expected, UFC president Dana White will on Friday announce Urijah
Faber’s new opponent for UFC 148, where “The California Kid” and the
soon-to-be-named foe will compete for the newly minted UFC interim
bantamweight title.
The replacement slot was necessitated when opposing coach and current
bantamweight champ Dominick Cruz was forced to bow out of the card with a
blown ACL.
