This is it. The final week of Dana White’s Contender Series Season 6 is upon us. Bo Nickal is back. The stakes are high. Five more UFC contracts are on the line.
Nickal (2-0), a decorated collegiate wrestler and one of the hottest MMA prospects in years, appeared on week three of DWCS this year, picking up a dominant win over Zachary Borrego. Even more impressive, Borrego had missed weight, but Nickal didn’t even flinch.
He did not, however, have a contract awarded, and was instead brought back for a second fight. That might raise some eyebrows, given that UFC President Dana White signed a 17-year old just last week, but on the other hand, it was only Nickal’s second pro fight.
You can assume that with a win on Tuesday, Nickal will be in the UFC — though he gets his toughest test to date against Donovan Beard.
Beard is a CFFC veteran, and currently holds the promotion’s middleweight title.
