While UFC president Dana White insists that Fox execs are more than happy with the TV ratings that The Ultimate Fighter: Live is drawing on Friday night’s, the series continues to sag in comparison with its tenure on Spike TV.

Episode 8 of TUF: Live this past Friday drew just 929,000 viewers, a new series low. It marks the second time this season, and in the series’ history, that TUF has dipped below one million viewers for an episode

Episode 8 saw Team Faber take the lead once more as Chris Saunders nabbed a split decision win over Sam Sicilia. They now lead the series 4-3.


This is The Ultimate Fighter’s first season on FX, which happened as part of the UFC’s new television deal with the Fox family of networks, of which FX is a part. Friday night is also a departure from the show’s run on Spike TV.

Ratings are back down for the show, the fight that was on the latest episode was pretty good. Dana white also came out and said that he and FX were going to change things up for next seasons TUF. Hopefully he doesn't bring in Bantamweights this time. CHAEL NEEDS TO BE ON TUF.
