It was the finale of the tenth season of “The Ultimate Fighter.” The highest-rated season in the UFC reality program’s history, the buzzworthy competition was to be brought to a conclusion–with a winner crowned–at Saturday’s event. Would it be Roy Nelson or Brendan Schaub who walked away with a guaranteed UFC contract?
