THE ULTIMATE FIGHTER®

EPISODE TWO RESULTS
 
Team Sonnen clinches first win as
Luke Barnatt dominates Gilbert Smith
 
Series continues next Tuesday on FX at 9 p.m. ET/PT
 
Las Vegas, Nevada –The Ultimate Fighter® returned Tuesday night on FX with the second episode of the season – “Ambush.” In the first preliminary bout, Luke Barnatt, from Cambridge, England, dominated Colorado Spring’s Gilbert Smith when they squared off in the Octagon®.
Using his significant height and reach advantage, Barnatt, 5-0 in mixed martial arts, dictated much of the fight before stopping the much smaller Smith (5-1) in the second round.
Before the bout, the fighters on Team Jones had voiced concerns about the match-up, but head coach Jon “Bones” Jones insisted on his selection and, ultimately, was proved wrong.
full recap is available at ufc.com.

Team Sonnen – coached by UFC light heavyweight Chael Sonnen (1-0)
Luke Barnatt (1-0, defeated Gilbert Smith via TKO in episode 2)

Team Jones – coached by UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones (0-1)
