The Ultimate Fighting Championship has revealed its 28 lightweight fighters selected for the upcoming twelfth season of The Ultimate Fighter reality series which debuts Sept. 15 on Spike TV.
TUF 12 will feature the two top welterweights in the world, current 170-pound kingpin Georges "Rush" St.Pierre and #1 contender Josh Koscheck. Both will battle it out on pay-per-view in December following the TUF 12 live finale on December 4, 2010.
This will mark the second-time for both Koscheck and GSP who previously fought at UFC 74 "Respect", where Koscheck lost by decision.
