This season of Dana White’s Contender Series has absolutely flown by, with Week 7 of Season 7 arriving on Tuesday.
What does Week 7 have in store for fight fans? Well, if the name Talita Alencar rings a bell, then you’ve probably got your eye on the grappling scene. The 32-year old might be just 4-0 since making her pro MMA debut in 2021, a bit of a late start, but she holds a treasure chest of gold medals in BJJ, with a laundry list of accolades saying ultimately one thing: do not go to the ground with this woman!
We’ll see if fellow strawweight Stephanie Luciano can manage that come Tuesday night.
At heavyweight, a pair of undefeated talents collide when 10-0 Shamil Ghaziev meets the 6-0 Greg Velaso, meanwhile.
Dana White’s Contender Series Season 7, Week 7 does down Tuesday, September 19, 2023 at the UFC Apex, with weigh-ins coming a day earlier and getting underway at noon PT on Monday. Full weigh-in results can be found below.
