Dana White's Contender Series, which is billed as the world's toughest job interview, is no normal MMA event.
During a 10-week season each year, the head honcho of the combat sports leader sits cageside and evaluates talent. If you impress White, the company’s longtime president, an official UFC contract could await at night’s end.
The stakes are high in this Tuesday-night live event series at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. The show is fast-paced, and fighters know they have to bring the action to impress the boss and secure a spot on the UFC roster.
Dana White’s Contender Series Week 2 (8 p.m. ET on ESPN+ ) doesn't seem to feature a massive slate of future UFC stars. However, the matchmaking appears likely to produce fireworks across the board.
