After four consecutive weeks of all five fight-winners receiving contracts, we had a small regression last in Episode 7. Last week, only four out of the five-fight winners received deals with the UFC. That’s still at a very high clip that brings the total to 28 contracts given out of 34 fight winners. Will we see a similar week as the last few, or will there be some sort of even more regression? This week is another one you don’t want to miss.
