DETROIT – Though the tryouts for Season 13 of “The Ultimate Fighter” took place earlier this month, and the show is scheduled to begin taping in January, UFC president Dana White said no decisions have been made yet about the coaches.
“We haven’t decided who the coaches are going to be yet,” White told a small group of reporters on Wednesday after the press conference for UFC 123. “I’ve been on the road for two weeks now and I don’t go home till Sunday. Then I’m back on the road again, like Wednesday. So I’ve got to get back in the office Monday and Tuesday and get some (stuff) done.”
Season 13 will feature welterweight and middleweight fighters. Candidates for the show went through tryouts in Las Vegas on Nov. 4. The Spike reality competition last featured welterweights in Season 9 and middleweights in Season 11.
