The UFC president has sent out an Instagram post where he hints at the coaches' challenge for Conor McGregor and Urijah Faber as the pair go head-to-head on this season of The Ultimate Fighter.
Filming is almost complete for TUF 22 which sees McGregor's Team Europe go up against Faber's Team U.S.A. and the annual coaches challenge was filmed yesterday.
Previous examples of the coaches' challenges have included the rock-wall climbing contest between Rousey and Tate, the air hockey game between Bisping and Mayhem and the penalty shootout between Lesnar and JDS.

But the UFC have upped the ante this year as the giant target pictured from the sky that by Dana White yesterday would lead you to believe that Conor McGregor and Urijah Faber took part in a skydiving challenge to see who could land closer to the target.
Would the UFC really risk the safety of two of their biggest names by having them jump out of a plane?
We'll have to wait until TUF 22 airs in September to find out.
