TUF 17, Episode 6 Results: Team Jones regains control with TKO win | UFC NEWS


The Ultimate Fighter returned to FX on Tuesday night with the sixth episode of the season – “Path to Greatness”. In the evening’s preliminary matchup, Josh Samman capitalized on Tor Troeng’s relaxed fighting style, winning via knockout in the first round.

Samman, a Floridian with a 9-2 mixed martial arts record, landed a body kick and followed through with a crisp 1-2 combo to finish the fight at 4:40 of the first round and earn the first-round TKO over the 15-4 Swede. With the win, Team Jones climbs back to within one as Team Sonnen leads the preliminary fights 3-2.

Results after episode six:

Team Sonnen – coached by UFC® light heavyweight Chael Sonnen – (3-2)
Luke Barnatt (1-0, TKO win over Gilbert Smith in episode 2)
Uriah Hall (1-0, KOd Adam Cella in episode 3)
Zak Cummings
Tor Troeng (0-1, lost to Josh Samman via KO in episode 6)
Jimmy Quinlan
Kevin Casey (0-1, lost a UD to Collin Hart in episode 4)
Kelvin Gastelum (1-0, submitted Bubba McDaniel in episode 5)

Team Jones – coached by UFC® light heavyweight champion Jon Jones – (2-3)

Josh Samman (1-0, defeated Tor Troeng by KO in episode 6)
Bubba McDaniel (0-1, submitted by Kelvin Gastelum in episode 5)

Collin Hart (1-0, defeated Kevin Casey by UD in episode 4)
Adam Cella (0-1, KOd by Uriah Hall in episode 3)

Team Jones regains control of the fight pick and sets up a classic clash of grappler versus striker, as Clint Hester takes on Jimmy Quinlan of Team Sonnen.

The series resumes next Tuesday, March 5, on FX at 9 p.m. ET/PT (check local listings for Central and Mountain Time). In that episode – “His Fist on My Face” – One fighter cuts loose and another alienates himself when the guys get a night out at Hooters. A fighter’s recurring leg pain lands him in the hospital. Then Hester and Quinlan square off in the sixth Preliminary Fight.
