The story

Salhahuddin “Sal” Everett, 29, is set to compete on Week 9 of Dana White’s Contender Series on October 6, 2026, in Las Vegas. Everett previously worked within the UFC organization in various roles, including mailroom staff, security, and as a personal runner for CEO Dana White.

Everett, who holds a 4-0 professional record, will face fellow undefeated welterweight Ozzy Martin. Martin also enters the bout with a 4-0 record, having finished all four of his professional opponents by knockout. Everett has maintained a 100-percent finishing rate throughout his professional and amateur careers, with his most recent victory coming via a first-round rear-naked choke against Armus Guyton in July 2026.
