Dana White's Contender Series Season 10 Week 8 Sees Four Fighters Earn UFC Contracts

Week 8 of Dana White’s Contender Series Season 10 saw all four event winners earn UFC contracts, despite the card being reduced to four bouts after the Ilias Bulaid versus Erick Visconde featherweight fight was rescheduled for Week 10 due to illness.

In the main event, George Staines made history by securing the first slam knockout in the show's history against Loai Abushaar. Other winners included Aieza Bertolso, who submitted Camila Reynoso with a D’Arce choke, and Adama Diop, who earned a standing TKO against Zaurbek Sabanov.

Ian Escuza also received a contract after defeating Luca Borando via TKO in just 32 seconds. The result was reviewed by officials following an illegal knee landed by Escuza, which referee Herb Dean ultimately determined was incidental to the finish.
