the ultimate fighterYesterday, Seattle played host the TUF 10 tryouts. 250~ MMA fighters arrived to the venue to impress UFC brass with their skills. Some of the potential contestants for the upcoming season could surprise you.

Former NFL defensive lineman Marcus Jones, former running back Herbert Goodman and former Colt Rex Richards all showed up to try and earn their shot at a contract in the big time of MMA.

Additionally, former pro wrestler Bobby Lashley has said he is open to competing on the reality show. Satoshi Ishii, Olympic Judo gold medalist, has flirted with the idea of signing with the UFC over the past several months and may wind up on The Ultimate Fighter season 10. Of course, it’s just speculation when it comes Lashley and Ishii, as of now.
