Some 400 hopefuls turned out today at the Newark Liberty International
Airport Marriott in Newark, N.J., to audition for the 14th season of
“The Ultimate Fighter.”
Seen in the crowd were a few familiar faces: UFC vet Din Thomas, who
appeared on the show’s fourth season, and WEC vets Wagnney Fabiano,
Micah Miller and Ian McCall.
“The Ultimate Fighter 14,” which begins production this summer and
debuts in the fall on Spike TV, is expected to feature bantamweight
and/or featherweight fighters. It’s the first time the reality show has
featured competitors in the UFC’s lightest weight classes.
