Admittedly there are a few I have never seen fight but it seems like mostly well connected regional level talent, mixed in with some fun action fighters, but not many fighters with a chance of hitting the rankings let alone becoming champion.

I think its pretty telling of the actual talent level appearing on DWCS, in recent years, that only 2 of the last 100 fighters awarded contracts are currently ranked fighters.

It seems like Sean and Mick are totally phoning it in at this point.

Nah this year is pretty loaded so far. I would say Austin Bashi, Icaro Brito, Mario Pinto, Talisson Teixeira, Rizvan Kuniev, Saygid Izagakhmaev, Lon'er Kavanaugh, An Tuan Ho, Jose Ochoa, Navajo Stirling, Diyar Nurgozhay, Alain Van Der Merckt, Quillan Salkilld, Kevin Vallejos, Louis Lee Scott, Mansur Abdul Malick, Cody Haddon and Sean Gauci all have a solid chance of being ranked fighters one day.

Pleased to see Nargozhay for 205lbs, his opponent doesn't seem bad either.

I've seen him fight a couple of times in LFA. Don't really remember much about him TBH.

@Hellowhosthat would know better. Camacho isn't in the Hype Train thread, so I assume he is unremarkable.

Yeah, Camacho seems like a standard 6-0 Brazilian HW that could go either way but usually doesn't look good when they get a step up. Think Pinto should handle him.

Apparently he is fighting Logan Woods. He's 5-1 pro, 8-0 amateur.

I think the only time I saw Woods fight was when he got smoked by Ozzy Diaz, his only loss. But the rest of his record is solid and he has a wins over the very tough Adam Vigil and our Sherbro Big Tuna.

Luke Riley being a heavy favourite over Vallejos is crazy

I really like them. There are a whole bunch of episodes and a while back I made a thread about it.

Media - DWCS: Next Level

CJ Vergara Part 1 CJ Vergara Part 2 Slava Borshchev Jack Della Maddalena Jasmine Jasudavicius This is exactly the kind of content the UFC should be producing IMO. Fights are more interesting if you know a bit about the fighter, but Contender Series doesn't tell you enough about them, and...

I had meant to keep it updated and put every episode in it, but I very much did not do that. I think all the links are dead now and I can't be bothered to update the thread. Maybe I'll make a new one for the new batch of episodes.
