Dana White officially announced the coaches for the next season of The Ultimate Fighter today on the conference call today for the UFC: Fight for The Troops 2 event.
The coaches will be Brock Lesnar and Junior dos Santos. Brock Lesnar will be fighting Junior dos Santos after the season is over. There will be no interim title fight. The winner of the Lesnar and Junior dos Santos fight will face Cain Velasquez when Cain is healthy and ready to fight again.

Oh wow! I heard Lesnar didn't want to face Cain again and was thinking of hanging up the UFC gloves. He must have gotten a good offer

I'm sorry I didn't respond earlier to this Champ.
Before he faces Cain, Brock has to fight JDS. And that should be a good fight but I think Brock wins it with his ground game. I think no matter who wins though Cain rapes them. That dude is for real.
This season should at least be interesting. Brocks camp has been known for keeping its training and strategies close to home and JDS can't speak English for shit.

I knew he had to win that fight first. I'm just surprised he's even in that position. I heard he was basically scared lol

I'd say the UFC is trying to build up the rematch. Give Brock a win or two before going in against Cain and it sells more. I heard the contract between UFC and Spike is coming up for renewal so they wanted to spike the ratings on UFC and Brock was a sure fire way to do that.

Brock does bring in ratings. The majority of people into UFC are also wrestling fans. The crossover is always good for both sides
