This past week I missed the fact that due to the Thanksgiving holiday, The Ultimate Fighter was not going to air. Instead, we saw replays of the last two episodes. You’ll have to wait until next week to see back to back episodes. December 3rd is also WEC 37 with Manny Tapia vs. Miguel Torres.

Nope, but it will be up for public auction. MMAWeekly reports:
In a Securities and Exchange Commission filing dated Nov. 4, executives from Showtime Networks and parent company CBS Corporation announced that the assets of Pro Elite, Inc. would be sold to the highest bidder in a public auction scheduled for Nov. 17.
