Las Vegas, Nevada – The
Ultimate Fighter® semi-finals are set. The reality series
returned to FX on Tuesday night, with the 11th episode of the season – Vicious
- narrowing the field of middleweight competitors down to four. Josh Samman of
Tallahassee, Florida and New Yorker Uriah Hall won their quarterfinal bouts,
successfully securing spots in the final four alongside Yuma, Arizona’s Kelvin
Gastelum and Kiwi Dylan Andrews.
Ever the humble competitor,
Samman, 9-2 in mixed martial arts, used his opportunity in the Octagon®
to showcase his striking ability to once again submit grappler Jimmy Quinlan,
3-0, at 4:40 of the first round. Then, the spectacular Uriah Hall, 7-2, needed
only eight seconds to finish Bubba McDaniel, 20-6, by TKO in the very first
round.
