“The Ultimate Fighter”, Season 32: Results Team Grasso vs. Team Shevchenko

After perhaps the most successful season in the history of “The Ultimate Fighter” – which saw MMA’s biggest star, Conor McGregor, step in as a coach for the second time – the show returns in June for its 32nd season.

TUF was instrumental in the UFC's explosion in popularity in the early 2000s, spotlighting fighters like Randy Couture, Chuck Liddell, Tito Ortiz and Ken Shamrock, who trained MMA hopefuls in a seasonal competition that saw competitors share a house for several weeks.

Over the course of 31 seasons, all of which air on ESPN+, the show has featured several UFC champions: Forrest Griffin, Rashad Evans, Michael Bisping, Kamaru Usman, Robert Whittaker, TJ Dillashaw and Rose Namajunas, as well as stars Nate Diaz, Tony Ferguson and Diego Sanchez. Each season, the tension builds between the coaches as they prepare for a big fight of their own, and fans can watch it all from behind the scenes.

The 32nd season of The Ultimate Fighter will feature a coaching duel between flyweight champion Alexa Grasso and former champion Valentina Shevchenko. The two are expected to face each other in a trilogy fight for Grasso's title after the conclusion of this season. In the first fight, Grasso defeated Shevchenko by submission and took the title. In the second fight, the duel between the two ended in a draw.

This season's TUF competition, which will air on ESPN and ESPN+ beginning June 4, is at featherweight and middleweight. Results from this season can be found at the bottom of this story.
