We had another very eventful Dana White’s Contender Series episode last week with another five fighters receiving contracts with their wins out of the six total. Bringing the total to 20 out of 23 bout winners and one loser of a bout. Will we have a drop-off this week or is it more of the same from this season? We have a return back to a five-fight event, the full event preview is listed below.
