Four Fighters Secure UFC Contracts Following DWCS Season 10, Week 6
Dana White signed four fighters—Mayton Perea, Igor Cavalcanti, Akbar Abdullaev, and Luis Hernandez—to UFC contracts following the conclusion of DWCS Season 10, Week 6.
Dana White's Contender Series Season 10 continued its run this week, with four competitors earning spots on the UFC roster following their performances in the cage. UFC CEO Dana White announced the signings at the conclusion of the event, rewarding a standout group of athletes for their showings.
The four fighters awarded UFC contracts are Mayton Perea, Igor Cavalcanti, Akbar Abdullaev, and Luis Hernandez. These athletes impressed the UFC leadership team sufficiently to earn a promotion to the world's premier MMA organization.
The event featured a total of five winners, with Tyshawn Williams being the only victorious fighter on the card not to be signed to the promotion. White addressed the decision regarding Williams following the conclusion of the bouts.
The addition of these four fighters marks the latest talent influx for the UFC via the developmental series as the promotion looks to bolster its depth across multiple weight classes. While the specific matchups for their promotional debuts remain unannounced, these athletes will now begin their official tenures under the UFC banner. Further details regarding their first official UFC assignments are expected to be revealed in the coming months as they transition into the main roster landscape.
