UFC President Dana White welcomes 16 promising Latin American Bantamweight and Featherweight fighters to Las Vegas to compete for a contract in the UFC. The men split into two teams, Mexico and Latin America, led by World Heavyweight Champion Caín Velásquez and number one contender, Fabricio Werdum.

After having won the first fight, team Velasquez celebrates their victory, and rubs it in team Werdum's face. Mexican Gabriel Benitez gets ready to face Chilean fighter Diego Rivas and is determined to do some damage, but he struggles to make weight. Benitez and Rivas meet in the octagon and have the bloodiest fight of the season.

Team Mexico has won two in a row and go for a third as Alejandro "Diablito" Pérez takes on Team Latin America's Olympic wrestling fighter Fredy "El Profe" Serrano. Mexican actor Salvador Zerboni surprises the fighters with a trip to a live UFC fight featuring UFC Bantamweight Champion Renan Barao and former Ultimate Fighter competitor T.J. Dillashaw.

After Team Werdum's third loss, Werdum trains his strongest fighter, Panamanian Humberto Brown to face the most technical Mexican fighter, Yair Rodriguez, both with the same motivation, to win the competition and help their families back home. When the food starts disappearing at the house, Team Werdum points the finger at Team Velasquez and decides to take action. Brown fights Rodriguez in the hopes to turn the tables and give his team the first victory.

Team Mexico celebrates its fourth victory in a row with a wild night under the stars and now it's up to Team LA's youngest fighter, Marlon "Chito" Vera to fight experienced Mexican striker Henry "Bure" Briones and give Coach Werdum the privilege of fight control. "Chito" opens up to his teammates and reveals the dark secret that motivates him to fight.
