What will likely be the biggest Contender Series arrival of the year takes place in Week 3 this week, as Bella Mir headlines the third episode of Dana White’s Contender Series Season 10.
Mir is the daughter of former UFC heavyweight champion Frank Mir, and is someone Dana White himself as been singing the praises of lately, even suggesting she could compete for Zuffa Boxing and UFC BJJ as well (she has already turned up under the UFC BJJ banner, in fact). With the women’s bantamweight division badly in need of stars, Mir arrives at the perfect moment, assuming she can capitalize on her Contender Series opportunity.
Booked opposite Alex Apodaca, Mir opens at the biggest favorite among female fighters in Contender Series history, so if all goes according to plan, she’ll be UFC-bound shortly.
Weigh-ins for DWCS Season 10 Week 3 took place on Monday in Las Vegas, with no hiccups at the scale. Full results from the official weigh-in can be found below.
