The Contender Series continued on Tuesday, coming off a week that saw the biggest upset in DWCS history play out.
Bella Mir’s loss to Alex Apodaca may turn out to be the biggest storyline of the season, but there’s still plenty of fights to come as part of Dana White’s Contender Series Season 10. Week 4 featured Patrick Rivera, a Shogun fighters welterweight, taking on Ireland’s Adam Darby, who had spent the entirety of his career with Cage Warriors. That clash promised to be one of several exciting match-ups, with lightweights, heavyweights, and middleweights also in action.
Tuesday’s returning fighters with Adam Livingston and Brandon Holmes, with Livingston kicking off the card opposite Hunter Smith at lightweight.
