Contender Series 2021 Week 4

Richard

Worse week of this season IMHO

I think I understand what’s going on with the Contender Series this year. If you have a name and you’re supposed to be in the UFC already… All you have to do is win your fight, and you’re in. …If you dont have a name, and your call-up is premature, then you’ll have to win impressively
Guys that got contracts on this show were: AJ Dobson, Michael Morales, Kleydson Rodrigues, and Victor Martinez

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

  • Jacob Rosales
  • Victor Martinez
  • Santo Curatolo
  • Kleydson Rodrigues
  • Steven Nguyen
  • Theo Riayang
  • Michael Morales
  • Nicolay Veretennikov
  • AJ Dobson
  • Hashem Arkhaga
2.7

Summary

  • Martinez played a conservative striking game with Rosales. Got the contract anyway, go figure
  • Curatolo ran for Rodrigues all fight long
  • Nguyen looked good, based on the performances on this show, I thought he deserved a contract
  • Veretennikov did not fight like himself for some reason. Wanted the throw hand
  • AJ Dobson put on the most Contender Series Performance of the show, and Arkhagha matched him
