After recently confirming the possibility of the first-ever international edition of the Ultimate Fighting Championship’s reality series “The Ultimate Fighter,” UFC president Dana White said he now has a likely location in mind: the Middle East.

Back in November White said the UFC hopes to use “TUF,” which first
launched on Spike TV in 2005, as a way to enter and educate new regions
of the world about the UFC’s brand of MMA.

But with the organization’s UFC 112 show in Adu Dhabi now a reality with an April 12 event date, more MMA could be coming to the area via the reality series.
