UFC President, Dana White has ruled out any possibility of seeing TUF 1 veterans, Stephan Bonnar and Forrest Griffin square off for a third time as coaches on a forthcoming season of “The Ultimate Fighter Live”, adding that the fighters featured are usually champions or contenders at least.

White, speaking via MMAJunkie, said:

“I know that’s what he wants. No. Sorry, Stephan. We usually bring in guys that are champions. Stephan and Forrest, believe me, you guys know I love Stephan and Forrest. We celebrate Stephan and Forrest every day. But it’s not going to happen.”
