Another great week of Dana White’s Contender Series action last week saw all five winners earn UFC contracts. That makes it back-to-back weeks as such and brings the season total to 14 of the 19 fight winners having received a contract. There’s also been one fight loser receiving a contract on the season. We are back with another five-fight card this Tuesday with another exciting crop of young talents fighting for a UFC contract.
