TUF 31: Veterans vs Prospects
A report by CBC journalist Cole Shelton earlier this month suggested that the theme of TUF 31 will be veterans versus prospects. The season’s contestants will be split equally between combatants who haven’t yet competed in the UFC and former UFC fighters who have been let go by the company.
Torres noted in a series of tweets that Chandler’s team appears to be veteran-heavy, given the presence of numerous former UFC fighters. It includes Cody Gibson, Austin Hubbard, Roosevelt Roberts, Kurt Holobaugh, Jason Knight, and Brad Katona.
According to Torres, MMA prospects vying for their first UFC contract are part of Team McGregor. Nate Jennerman, Rico DiSciullo, Carlos Vera, Trevor Wells, Mando Gutierrez, and Aaron McKenzie are a few of the fighters on Team McGregor.
However, many other names of the TUF 31 contenders in the video have yet to be made public. The UFC still needs to make an official announcement about it.
