The Ultimate Fighter kicks off its historic 18th season tonight on Fox Sports 1 at 10 p.m. EST.  

With women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey coaching against bitter rival Miesha Tate, this season promises high drama and heated exchanges inside and outside of the Octagon. 

Also revving up the intensity this season is the introduction of a new format. Whereas previous seasons featured all-male casts, season 18 will showcase both men and women bantamweight hopefuls inside the same house. 

When you put a cluster of testosterone-filled men in a secluded house and surround them with women, imminent chaos looms. 

Check back here as the episode airs to see how the action unfolds.
