Featherweight, Middleweight Cast Revealed for 'The Ultimate Fighter 32'

Featherweights and middleweights will take center stage when “The Ultimate Fighter 32” debuts later this year.

The Ultimate Fighting Championship announced the roster for the long-running reality series on Saturday, touting it in a release as “the most international cast ever assembled for the show, with 14 nations being represented by 16 rising prospects.”

The 12-episode season of “TUF 32” will air on ESPN beginning on June 4 at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT and will also be available to stream on demand via ESPN+. Reigning flyweight queen Alexa Grasso and rival Valentina Shevchenko will serve as opposing coaches on the show. Grasso and Shevchenko are expected to meet in a trilogy bout at the conclusion of “TUF 32,” but a date for that championship fight has not been announced.
