The new season of Dana White's Contender Series is underway at the UFC APEX in Las Vegas. This show features prospects that hope to earn UFC contracts by showcasing their skills inside the octagon. Notable alumni of the DWCS include Sean O'Malley, Alex Perez and Taila Santos. Perez and Santos have already earned UFC title shots, and O'Malley could be next in line for a title shot provided he beats former UFC Bantamweight Champion Petr Yan at UFC 280.
Dana White's Contender Series airs on Tuesday nights at 8:00 p.m. ET on ESPN+. Last week featured one of the most exciting nights in the history of the show. Four of the five fights were finishes and five UFC contracts were awarded. The night was highlighted by an incredible comeback win by Chris Duncan. Charlie Campbell had Duncan in trouble early in Round 1, but after a series of failed Duncan takedown attempts, Duncan caught Campbell with his hands low with a 1-2 combo that put Campbell's lights out.
