The Ultimate Fighter is back on June 1. Season 29 (!) features UFC featherweight champion Alex Volkanovski coaching against Brian Ortega. Those two are expected to fight, with the title on the line, later this year.

It’s been almost two years since the 28th season, named ‘Heavy Hitter’. In the time in between, there had been murmurings that the UFC’s flagship reality show could be shelved indefinitely. However, that’s not the case as UFC President Dana White seems to still be in love with the show that pushed MMA into the mainstream back in 2005.

To celebrate the forthcoming TUF season the UFC released a compilation of some of the show’s greatest hits. Check the video above to see their ‘best finishes’ from the previous 28 season.
