Making the most of a second chance, John Gunther constantly came forward looking to engage, but it was Mike Trizano who advanced to the lightweight finals of The Ultimate Fighter 27.
Trizano took a unanimous decision after picking apart a relentless Gunther for three rounds, booking himself a spot on the live finale on July 7. He awaits the winner of the other lightweight semifinal matchup, which will determine who gets to compete against Trizano for a shot at a six-figure UFC contract.
“My hands are killing me. John’s got a friggin’ hard head,” Trizano said in a post-fight testimonial.
