Week 7 of Dana White’s Contender Series features a returning fighter whose loss on the show has aged like fine wine, two undefeated heavyweights facing off, and a number of UFC-ready prospects. That should give you plenty of reason to tune in to this latest instalment of DWCS.
The returning fighter in question, Kevin Vallejos, fell short against Jean Silva on the show. Silva, however, has made a quick rise in the promotion, becoming the first man to stop Charles Jourdain, then turning around on all of two weeks’ notice to defeat Drew Dober up a weight class.
Suddenly, Vallejos, who has won twice since that loss to Silva a year ago, looks more than ready for a second chance. As for the heavyweights in question, they include undefeated CFFC champ Bailey Schoenfelder, who will be taking on Danylo Voievodkin.
