Contender Series 2022: Week 3 preview, weigh-in results
Nope. Still sticking with this logo.Bo Nickal (1-0) is in a bit of an unusual situation here.
An accomplished and decorated wrestler, he’s suddenly main eventing a Conteder Series card in what is only his second professional MMA bout. A win here — especially a very decisive one — could land him in a very nice spot on the main roster of a middleweight division that could use some bolstering. His wins as a professional have come by a submission and the other two via strikes, so he’s not some one-dimensional wrestler or by-the-numbers wrestleboxer. This kid could be a massive threat in short order, but you get to see him here first.
