Yeah like I said, it’s a year and a half old so they’d need to be updated, and there’s been a third season. So trying to get more recent numbers
 
Obviously you have to consider what level of opposition they're facing in the Octagon, but most of these would have found their way into the UFC anyway so its a quick & inexpensive way to introduce potential future stars when compared with TUF which had run it's course so it's here to stay.

Didn't Tony Gravely just lose Saturday?

I’m working on current stats for the alumni. Season 1 & 2 have really begun to produce some stars. Season 3 hasn’t shown us much, but is off to the strongest start so far, though they will likely face harder fights as they progress.

Damn. That is legit work. I was wondering this exact thing myself, since such a high percentage were obviously running at full octane. Was curious how that would work out when they went through USADA.
