Meet the ‘TUF 16’ Cast

Saad Awad (11-4)

Anchored at the Millennia MMA camp in Southern California, Awad finds himself on a three-fight winning streak. The 23-year-old has not fought since April, when he needed a mere 28 seconds to dispatch Matt Shorey on strikes under the Gladiator Challenge banner. A potent finisher, Awad has secured nine of his 11 professional victories by knockout, technical knockout or submission.
