According to MMAjunkie.com, the series will then continue for 10 consecutive weeks before it wraps up on August 20.
The Dana White Contender Series — which first launched in 2017 — has added a number of top prospects to the UFC roster like Maycee Barber, Greg Hardy, Sean O’Malley, Antonina Shevchenko, and Johnny Walker.
