UFC returns ‘The Ultimate Fighter’ to a taped format

TUF is going back to its “Taped” format.  Guess there wasn’t enough pre-recorded content for them to twist into “Real World” like drama.  As a fight fan, I liked the Live format.  It aloud for real fights, focused on what real training is like, and kept producers from making “Chopped and Screwed” the content to try and make better tv.

Apparently people would rather see more he-said she-said drama in the show.  No more live fights every friday :(.  Here’s Yahoo! Sports’ article.
