Key ‘Ultimate Fighter’ producer Craig Piligian named to 2025 UFC Hall of Fame class

Craig Piligian UFC Hall of Fame

The UFC has its first 2025 inductee into its Hall of Fame, and the honoree will go into the Contributor Wing.

Craig Piligian, an Emmy Award-winning TV producer, will be a member of the UFC’s 2025 HOF class and will go into the Hall at an induction ceremony during International Fight Week in Las Vegas this summer. The promotion announced Piligian as an inductee Saturday at UFC 311 in Inglewood, Calif.

“Craig Piligian is one of the most influential and respected executives in the history of television,” UFC CEO Dana White said in a news release. “Craig was instrumental in shaping ‘The Ultimate Fighter’ into one of the most important unscripted television shows in sports and helping make UFC a global phenomenon. It will be an honor to induct him into the UFC Hall of Fame this summer.”
