Dana White’s Contender Series, Season 6 roster quickly filling out, dates officially set

Dana White’s Contender Series, Season 6 is on the horizon.

Tuesday, the UFC-owned and controlled sub-promotion received licensure from the Nevada Athletic Commission (NAC) to hold events from July 26-Sept. 27 at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. If one episode is held per week, that would mean 10 episodes total for the upcoming season.

DWCS debuted in 2017 with an eight-episode inaugural season. Season 2 was held in 2018 with eight episodes, followed by a three-episode DWCS: Brasil. In 2019, DWCS was extended to 10 episodes for its third season. The length was repeated in 2020, 2021, and now the upcoming season.

Each season, the number of fighters signed has increased. Thus far, the show has produced UFC notables including Sean O’Malley, Maycee Barber, Geoff Neal, Ryan Spann, Sodiq Yusuff, Jamahal Hill, Taila Santos, Johnny Walker, Alex Perez, and Marina Rodriguez among others.

While the promotion has yet to make any official announcements regarding the upcoming season, various fighters’ participation has been confirmed.
