McGregor responded “You become tired of them, you know. You want to see the guys do well but you only have a couple days and then you know you’re up for the first round so you don’t really get an impact. And if the guy is out of the competition, then maybe I’ve noticed after I go, maybe it’s not got an unfair result, they’re not getting the knockout result we wanted.”
The Ultimate Fighter Season 31 is being filmed in Las Vegas, Nevada with 16 fighters – 8 on McGregor’s team and 8 on Chandler’s team.
The fighters from each team will face off against each other to determine the season’s champion.
TUF 31 takes place in Las Vegas, Nevada, with Team McGregor and Team Chandler each consisting of eight athletes.
Despite feeling tired during coaching at TUF 31, McGregor is known for his dedication to the sport and his athletes.
The new season premieres on Tuesday, February 1st at 10pm Eastern on ESPN and ESPN+ in the United States. Each episode will air on Tuesday nights for the duration of the season.
