Payout Perspective:
This week was a better ratings week for TUF, especially with M 18-34, which scored a 2.10. Episode 9’s fights were entertaining for two different reasons. First, Jonathan Brookins has stomped the competition. He will be in the UFC even if he does not win the TUF final. He has been very impressive and his win over Sevak Magakian was dominating. The Nam Phan/Cody McKenzie fight was very entertaining as Phan withstood a flurry of takedown and submission attempts to outlast McKenzie who gassed in the second round. An action packed match showing the spirit of The Ultimate Fighter: two young, raw fighters giving it their all to win.
