Dana White started a new MMA organization completely separate from the UFC that will be airing 5 fights every Tuesday on Fight Pass called Dana White's Tuesday Contender Series. Apparently it's for regional fighters and old vets to showcase their skills to maybe one day get called up to the UFC. Dana said winning doesn't guarantee a UFC spot though. Payouts for all fighters will be 5k show 5k win.

Feels weird that BJ's fighting in a few hours and I don't give two shits
I was live in the crowd when he fought Yair a few months ago and all I could think about was "fuck I don't want to be here in person to see BJ get butchered" then sure enough he got butchered lol


Hopefully he don't look as shitty against someone like Siver.
