UFC.com:

UFC President Dana White announced today that former UFC heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar and number one contender Junior dos Santos will match wits as the coaches of season 13 of the hit Spike TV reality series.

Following the season, which begins filming this month and begins airing on March 30, Lesnar and dos Santos will then match fists in the Octagon later in 2011.

Wow...Dana pulled it off (Brock on TUF). It will be hilarious.

Season ends June 4th. Cain may be out through August so they want to jump at the chance to have a Brock fight and since JDS wanted to fight anyway....

soooo i take it the fight at the end of the season (Brock-JDS) will be for the interim title?

the schills will be up in arms over this one

Brock/JDS is confirmed for the stupid interim title. Winner faces Cain to unify in the fall.

I'd say Brock & JDS are the top two contenders, so any bitching is unwarrented.

Very interesting to say the least. I can't really see Brock being a great coach though, especially if his head isn't 100% into the game anymore.

That show was never about the "coaches" coaching. They bring in guys from their camps to do that. Its about hyping up a fight. Its a weekly infomercial to sell a ppv and build new stars.

Id also say that Brocks commitment to MMA can't really be questioned at this point, if he's fighting JDS and potentially rematching with Cain down the line. Those are obviously tough fights.

all he needs to do is break through a door (again) and the ufc will hype the shit out of it. doesnt matter if hes a good coach, hes mad and breaking through stuff so you better tune in cause you dont know whats next!

they might as well rename it TUF 13: Brock Lesnar cause JDS can barely speak english the majority of his dialogue is gonna be in subtitles.

I agree, but it was actually enjoyable watching last season because I enjoyed watching GSP coach his guys up.

If by "fun", you mean "like two crabby 8 years old arguing constantly in the back seat of the car on a long road trip", then sure.

So a guy with very little experience in the sport, and a guy who doesnt speak very much English, are supposed to "coach" up and coming MMA fighters? BRILLIANT!
