The final of the UFC’s Japanese version of “The Ultimate Fighter,” which goes by the moniker “Road to UFC,” took place as part of UFC Fight Night 75: Barnett vs. Nelson on Saturday night, but left a sour taste in everyone’s mouth when it ended in a split draw. That’s not something that happens under the rules of The Ultimate Fighter, and it’s something that shouldn’t have happened under the rules of Road to UFC. When the final of either tournament-based reality series ends in a draw, there is supposed to be an additional sudden-victory round to declare a definitive victor.
