5 reasons why the new Ultimate Fighter will be fascinating

#3 Garbrandt's age

Garbrandt has a lot to prove

Cody Garbrandt is 25-years-old and will be one of the youngest coaches in Ultimate Fighter history. As such, there's going to be a unique feel to this season as a lot of the guys he'll be coaching may well be older than the champion or have more experience. It'll be interesting to see how Cody adapts to this and tries to make the best of what is sure to be an awkward situation.

Some of the guys may choose not to listen, meanwhile, others will give him the benefit of the doubt. On the opposite end of the spectrum, TJ Dillashaw is 31-years-old and whilst that's only six years older than Cody, you'd have to imagine that there will be more respect shown to TJ in the grand scheme of the competition. His back is definitely against the wall in this one, and we respect the guy for taking on this challenge.

Now to a man who is a vital cog in the machine.
