Dana White speaks to the media following Week 7 of Dana White’s Contender Series Season 10, a historic night at the Meta APEX in Las Vegas that saw six fighters earn UFC contracts — including two who lost their fights.
Fight winners Alvi Dasuyev, Marcos Degli, Piero Guaylupo and Damian Piwowarczyk all earned their tickets to the UFC. But Dana wasn’t finished: Callum Connor and Jaden Ortega also received contracts despite suffering their first professional defeats.
Connor earned his opportunity after an incredible battle with Guaylupo that Dana described as a potential Fight of the Year contender, while Ortega’s toughness and performance against Dasuyev also convinced the UFC brass to bring him aboard.
Dana discusses the performances, his unprecedented decision to award contracts to two losing fighters, the six newest additions to the UFC roster and another memorable night in a record-breaking Season 10.
UFC contracts: Alvi Dasuyev • Marcos Degli • Piero Guaylupo • Damian Piwowarczyk • Callum Connor • Jaden Ortega
