The 31st season of ‘The Ultimate Fighter’ has finally come full circle. After the culmination of the quarter-finals, we have approached the last fight of the semifinals. Just when we thought Conor McGregor would be clean-swept by Michael Chandler‘s team, he survived, thanks to the last prospect on his team, Rico Disciullo.

Now, we have come to the last episode of the 31st season of TUF. With just one fight left on the show, let us look at what transpired in the most recent and final episode of TUF 31. Hold on tight as here we go!

Brad Katona and Cody Gibson get into a heated confrontation

Team McGregor’s most recent addition, Brad Katona, got in a verbal altercation with Cody Gibson. The drama took place in the kitchen of the TUF house. Katona found a note, which had some unsavory words directed towards him. He went on to ask something to Gibson, who proceeded to air his grievances about Team McGregor’s new fighter.

Gibson claimed that Brad Katona was the most self-centered person he’d ever met. This prompted the latter to ask why he hated him so much. Chandler’s teammate said, “I am going to hurt you in the finals. Because all you’re going to do is hug my leg because that’s all you do. You’re afraid to fight, Brad.” They continue to altercate with each other for some time before going in their separate directions.

Cody Gibson defeated Rico DiSciullo via submission

The time had finally arrived for the final semi-final bout between Team McGregor’s Rico Disciullo and Cody Gibson. Considering how Rico Disciullo saved Conor McGregor from a clean sweep with one of the best finishes of the season, the Irishman hoped to see him qualify for the finals. However, things didn’t work out that way.

Cody Gibson had the upper hand in the fight the entire time. He had an injured knee going into the fight. But that did not hamper his chances of grabbing the win. Gibson proved his mettle during the fight.
