Mike Trizano part of TUF 27 Undefeated cast, season starts April 18

The cast for the upcoming season of the Ultimate Fighter has been revealed. TUF 27 pairs undefeated mixed martial artists against one another for a shot at a UFC contract. This is the first time in the history of TUF that all competitors have undefeated records. It is also the first time two current UFC champions will coach opposite one another and compete inside the octagon later in the year.

UFC heavyweight champion Stipe Miocic and light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier will coach TUF 27 and fight for the heavyweight crown during the 7th annual UFC International Fight Week (July 3-7) at UFC 226: MIOCIC vs. CORMIER at T-Mobile Arena on Saturday, July 7.

The Ultimate Fighter: Undefeated features a dynamic cast of unbeaten lightweight and featherweight fighters. Each tournament winner will receive a six-figure UFC contract. The season will air for 12 consecutive Wednesdays on FS1, followed by a live finale to be announced at a later date.  Filming for the show begins this week and premieres April 18 on FS1.

One fighter announced for the TUF 27 competition is Mike Trizano.  “The Lone Wolf” out of Tiger Schulmann’s MMA is undefeated at 6-0 and is the former Maverick MMA lightweight champion.  He has competed at Ring of Combat, Maverick, and most recently at Bellator 186 where he submitted Mike Otwell.
