LIVE! Contender Series Results, Streaming Updates TONIGHT

It’s that time of year again!

Contender Series is back with 10 straight weeks of mixed martial arts (MMA) action. This week’s show starts at 7 p.m. ET on ESPN+ for the first two weeks (because of The Ultimate Fighter 32 final episodes), and then things switch back to the usual 8 p.m. ET time slot moving forward.

In the main event, undefeated powerhouse Mansur Abdul Malik (5-0) takes on fellow finisher Wes Schultz (6-1) in a Middleweight matchup. The rest of the card is filled with fun fights as Rami Hamed (12-3) steps up on short notice to fight knockout artist Meng Ding (34-8) in the co-main event. Light Heavyweight sluggers Bruno Lopes (12-1) and Mikheil Sazhiniani (13-2) collide in the featured bout. Jose Delgado (7-1) takes on Ernie Juarez (8-0) in a Featherweight bout. And finally, two of the best Flyweight prospects in the world kick off season eight as An Ho (6-0) takes on England’s Lone’er Kavanagh (6-0).
