The Ultimate Fighter 16 Finale in Las Vegas has added a second heavyweight fight to the mix, as MMAJunkie.com reports that a bout between Pat Barry and Shane Del Rosario will take place on the Dec. 15 card.
Barry was an assistant coach for Shane Carwin on this season of TUF, and Carwin will square off against fellow coach Roy Nelson in the TUF 16 Finale's main event. The entertaining Barry is in desperate need of a win, having lost three of his last four bouts. In his most recent bout, he suffered just the second TKO loss of his career against Lavar Johnson.
This will be the second fight in the UFC for former Strikeforce fighter Del Rosario, who lost his organizational debut earlier this year. Del Rosario entered with an undefeated 11-0 record, but was finished by Stipe Miocic at UFC 146 in May.
