Contender Series 2024 thread

Ares Black said:
I think he's gonna roll. His opponent has a very unimpressive record, and after the weigh ins the size difference has become apparent.

Teixeira is 6'8 and 259.
Lopes is 6'2 and 218.


I'm not sure I have ever seen such an obvious squash match on the Contender Series. I mean, it's HW so I guess that's something. I will be prepared surprised if it's even particularly competitive TBH.

I can't believe the guy's nickname is 'Jon Jones'. So fucking weird.
 
My heart almost stopped when Tallison got hit with some of those wild windmill overhands.

In other news, Finney got another chance because someone got injured in Week 8. Finney better channel his inner Igor and completely murk this other dude so the Pink one has mercy on him. Same Week Diyar will fight pretty excited for that one. Random Trivia I always have to think of this kid named Diyar in my elementary school. Henry Cejudo height little guy that looked nothing like this Diyar lol.

Week 9 is probably the card with the highest quality on it. Pinto,Dulatov and Vakhitov should get their contracts if they dont mess up. Vakhitov should be careful tho the other guy won a fight recently because his other opponent was acting cocky and got knocked out with a highkick 10 seconds in at HW.
 
WEEK 7 has best names so far this season, Vadim Kutsyi, Kevin Vallejos, Bailey Schonfelder, Cam Teague (hardest match up but he will earn contract next year) and Rose Conceicao...

Schonfelder's opponent looks like a pure can-crusher so he should easily win a contract but he belongs at 205lbs IMO and I hope that's where he fights in the UFC.

Voevodkin has kyokushin karate and some kickboxing experience, but Bailey will outwrestle him I think. Isn't easy fight definetly.
 
Is Elijah Smith (son of Gilbert Smith who has done TUF twice) the first second-generation UFC fighter since Randy Couture's son?
The Gracies in the UFC were not father and son, and I can't remember other guys who are the sons of ex-UFC fighters

He hasn't fought anyone with a pulse though, that's a big thing at HW. Those types of guys tend to crumble as soon as they get hit back for the first time.

Unfortunately Alain van de Merckt is out of his fight against Heraldo Souza on October 15. Wes Schultz will replace him for another shot on a UFC-contract.
I’m told Top Boy’s pullout had to do with visa issues @Hellowhosthat

He's immediately signed with KSW so he must have done some bad enough stuff in the past that the UFC told him "yeah, you're never getting a visa buddy".
