I is 6 is wayyyy too much. But if thatd the cost of getting grappling out of the sport then it's a net benefit I suppose
Must not be working because all the fights tonight were boring grappling matches. I hope no one was awarded a ufc contract
Most of them do that before they get an offer to be on the contender series.God that's a joke. What happened to people building themselves up on the regional scene?
This show is meant to get us to care about low profile fighters
Have you seen the level of some of these guys? I highly doubt most of them did as much as people did before.Most of them do that before they get an offer to be on the contender series.
Can't be true because some have been axed like Bevon Lewis.
I mean it's hard to tell who is signed and who's isn't sometimes they just bring random cans out of nowhere for squash matches that you never see again.They've already released a shitload of DWCS alumni. I'm sure at least half of the 37 fighters they signed this season will be gone by the end of next year.

Good work! look forward to seeing the results .I'm right in the middle of compiling an exhaustive list of DWCS losers/winners that were not signed but brought back (either to DWCS or short notice UFC cards) and it's taking forever. The Wikipedia page leaves off a SHITLOAD of names. I've been at it for 2 hours now.
For example, Ricky Simon won but was not signed but ended up in the top 15 almost immediately.

I mean, your right for this year, but last year had plenty of regional bouts and yet Contender series was in full flight.What regional scene? Regional scene is shrinking and covid has pretty much stomped on its neck
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention a really important one: Giga Chikadze got choked stiff on DWCS, then went back to crushing cans in Gladiator Challenge, then got brought back to the UFC on short-notice (to fight DWCS contract winner Brandon Davis, who has since been cut) and has been dominating ever since.
This. Sherdoggers and math, man, I swear.A good number of them have been cut so I don’t know this is very accurate
Nice! I didn't know that, or that about Ricky Simon either, I'm wondering how many got signed to Developmental contracts and ended up fighting or disappearing too.
