Meet the ‘TUF 16’ Cast

Joey Rivera (7-1)

An Apex MMA stablemate of “The Ultimate Fighter” Season 8 semifinalist George Roop, the 32-year-old “Boom Boom” has never gone the distance as a pro. He last competed in July, when a technical knockout loss to Chip Moraza-Pollard drove him from the ranks of the unbeaten at Cage Fury Fighting Championships 10 in Atlantic City, N.J. He put away six of his first seven foes inside the first round, two of them in less than a minute.
