Fans are divided over the coaching role of Colby Covington after the return of 'The Ultimate Fighter'

Chael Sonnen ran the controversial star with Colby Covington last year for his fight with Joaquin Buckley in Tampa and has reimbursed the controversial star the favor.

'Chaos' will be part of Team Sonnen in 'Tuf 33' with the first episode that briefly emphasizes the role of the former interim -welterweight champion.

Sonnen spoke very high about Covington during a segment of the debut episode in which he was shown to give advice to the flight weight and welterweight participants.

“Each of these guys admires Colby. They look at Colby, they strive to be as a Colby. Colby chose to be hands-on coach. He is the dominant power in the room, they want to be like him. Colby could not be better, he is worth his weight in gold.”

Fans were divided over Covington's involvement in the show, where some people choose to praise the work that they have seen him as a coach do in this opening episode, while he shared some knowledge from experience.

“He's doing it [a] Well done. “

“What a great coach.”

“Colby brings the heat, this season will be wild!”

Others were less enthusiastic about the idea that the often criticized veteran took on the role of mentor for the coming weeks.

“Do not listen to this loser, CC talks a lot and cannot support it.”

“All the more reason not to look.”

“Oh Gawd. Learning from the decision -making device of the pillow -frosted fist.”

Several former UFC champions will also appear in this series

During the debut episode of the new season, it was revealed that various former 'The Ultimate Fighter' participants who have achieved every success in the Octagon will also appear in the show.

Robert Whittaker, Carla Esparza, TJ Dillashaw and Rashad Evans all started holding UFC gold after they had cut their teeth on the realities series.

They will now return to the 'Tuf' sports school in the coming weeks to guide the talent that hopes to follow in their footsteps.

Former 'Tuf' winner Michael Chiesa is also a mainstay of this season as one of the coaches in Team Cormier.
