Top 10 Stand-outs from Dana White’s Contender Series 2020
I saw all the Contender series fights this season, as I did in 2019. I rated everyone on their performance, and this is my top 10 list. Anyway these are based on their show performance, and is not an overall rating of the fighter.
Contender Series 2020 Weeks 8 and 9
They did a great job of taking the Tuesday out of that Dana White’s Tuesday Night Contender Series, because it wasn’t held on a Tuesday for week 8. I guess that they wanted to get around that pesky presidential garbage. Anyway, there were a lot of mismatches on week 8. On week 9 there were a lot more even contests
Fighters that got contracts were:
Jared Vanderaa, Luis Saldana, Ignacio Bahamondes, Carlos Ulberg, Luana Pinheiro, Nikolas Motta and Natan Levy
Here are grades of the talent on the show. These grades are only based on their Contender Series performance, and not their performance before, in other organizations.

Round 5
Same, stagnant.🚩 Willis wins by Unanimous decision
It was a pretty stagnant fight. Willis ate a lot of low kicks, and was on the back foot all fight. Neither guy really wanted to clinch. de Jesus was coming forward, but not really offering much with the hands. This fight was basically two, average-to below average boxers, boxing. de Jesus has very strange fights, (case in point, his fight with Jerimiah Wells) I don’t know if guys just dont want to put hands on him, or if he just has a reputation for doing awesome things on the ground, but guys usually want to stay away from him. de Jesus has a great chin though… So there’s that. There is a case to make that de Jesus won this fight, but I didn’t really care, because neither guy really put their stamp on this fight. Pretty standard linear fight.
