Season Three of Dana White’s Contender Series is upon us, with all fighters hitting the scale Monday. We’ve got the weigh-in results for you right here!
The third season of Dana White’s Tuesday Night Contender Series kicks off tomorrow, which means fighters hit the scales in Las Vegas today (Monday, June 17). It’s the seventeenth installment of the Consider Series, which awards UFC contracts to some of the show’s biggest winners. Oh, and there’s a little name change to get used to. No longer is the show called Dana White’s Tuesday Night Contender Series. Now, it’s simply Dana White’s Contender Series. A nicer fit for those of us writing headlines.
On the season three opener, it was heavyweights, featherweights, middleweights, and women’s strawweights vying for a possible UFC deal. The featured fight had middleweights Punahele Soriano and Jamie Pickett facing off.
Weigh-in results and highlights are below!
