The Ultimate Fighter: Brazil

The Ultimate Fighter: Brazil represents a unique installment of the reality TV series produced by the Ultimate Fighting Championship known as The Ultimate Fighter. This particular season was distinct as it was the first to be entirely filmed outside Las Vegas, with 12 episodes leading to a live finale held in Brazil. The finale was broadcast on pay-per-view in June 2012, after filming commenced in February of the same year, and it was conducted in Portuguese. Brazilian production company Floresta produced the season, and it was initially aired on Globo, with each episode made available online at TUF.tv every Sunday night before re-airing on Fuel TV in a finale marathon.

During a pre-UFC 142 press conference on December 13, 2011, Dana White announced that Vitor Belfort and Wanderlei Silva would be the coaches for the season. Despite the usual format, Belfort went on to compete and secure a victory against Anthony Johnson at UFC 142 after the coach announcement, showing a different approach from previous seasons where coaches typically battled each other at the season’s close.

Open tryouts were organized by the UFC on December 14, 2011, for Lightweight and Middleweight fighters aged 21 and up with a minimum two victories out of three professional contests. From those who tried out, 350 fighters were invited to participate, eventually selecting Featherweight and Middleweight class contenders for the season.
