LAS VEGAS – “The Ultimate Fighter” returned this week for its 27th season, and for the first time all the cast members are unbeaten heading into the show.

MMAjunkie recently sat down with all 16 cast members. Watch the video above to get to know lightweight Mike Trizano (6-0), a Tiger Schulmann’s Martial Arts student who always envisioned a fighting career and a “TUF” spot. And while other cast members are quick to declare that they’re not on the show to make friends, New Jersey native Trizano, who’s fought with ROC and Bellator, is perfectly happy to make network and make connections.

“The Ultimate Fighter 27,” featuring UFC heavyweight champion Stipe Miocic and light heavyweight champ Daniel Cormier as coaches, airs Wednesdays at 10 p.m. ET on FS1.
