The midway mark of Dana White’s Contender Series Season 6 arrives this week, and how time has flown by.
From the instantly quotable warning from Dana White in week one, urging fighters to “be Joe Pyfer,” to a couple of five-contract weeks on the show, it’s been a busy season once again on DWCS. In week five, women’s strawweights right up to heavyweights were set to vie for UFC contracts, with a couple of familiar names in action.
Invicta FC fans would likely recognize Demise Gomes, who arrived in the all-female fighting promotion earlier this year. There, the Brazilian strawweight picked up an impressive third-round stoppage against UFC veteran Milana Dudieva — a win that no doubt landed her the Contender Series opportunity arriving Tuesday night.
Also set for the card was Amiran Gogoladze, yet another promising talent out of Georgia looking to break into the UFC.
Weigh-ins for the latest installment of Dana White’s Contender Series will once again take place on Monday at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, Nevada. Results can be found below.
