Tonight (November 17th) is Week 10 and the finale of season four of Dana White’s Contender Series, which highlights up-and-coming talent as well as some former UFC fighters looking for a second crack at the big time. Winners aren’t guaranteed a UFC contract, but it certainly helps to both win and impress at the same time.
As usual, Dana White’s Contender Series streams live on ESPN+. For those outside of the USA, you can still watch it on UFC Fight Pass, starting at 8 PM ET/5 PM PT. By the way, Paul Felder is doing analysis for this card a mere three days after getting bloodied up in his short notice fight with Rafael dos Anjos. What a man! Anyway, the full fight card is as follows:
Main card (ESPN+ at 8 PM ET/5 PM PT)
JP Buys vs. Jacob Silva via submission (guillotine choke) – Round 1, 4:54
Nick Maximov def. Oscar Cota via unanimous decision (30-26, 30-26, 29-28)
