Season 9 of Dana White’s Contender Series is now on the sweeping final turn that precedes the home stretch, with Week 6 having delivered four more new additions to the UFC roster on Tuesday night, bringing the total for the season up to 25.
It has been a wildly entertaining year featuring a number of intriguing prospects, including record-setter Baisangur Susurkaev, who earned a contract on the opening week, collected his first UFC victory four days later in Chicago at UFC 319 and is already scheduled for his sophomore appearance, which comes against Eric McConico at UFC 322 at Madison Square Garden in New York City.
