Contender Series was postponed this year, as pretty much everything else in the world of sports has been. The new crop of fighters angling to get into the big show had to wait a bit, but the wait is finally over. Ten fighters will do battle in Vegas to not only win, but trying to get a contract in the process.
As we know by now, winning is not a guarantee for a contract. It’s simply the way business is done. We’ll get some good fights and some excellent prospects, but be ready for some heartbreak.
Ty Flores vs Dustin Jacoby
Dustin Jacoby (11-5) started his career in 2010, then transitioned to kickboxing after unsuccessful stints in the UFC and World Series of Fighting at middleweight.
