The world’s “toughest job interview” continues this evening as 10 fighters “vie to fulfill their dreams of earning a UFC contract.”
Just three days after hosting the epic tussle between Frankie Edgar and Pedro Munhoz (watch highlights), UFC APEX in Las Vegas, Nevada, will once again open its doors for 10 Octagon hopefuls as Dana White’s “Tuesday Night Contender Series” continues its fourth season. Another four fighters put pen to paper last week: The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) veteran Josh Parisian and the Cosce brothers, Louis and Orion, scored impressive knockouts, while Cheyanne Buys put on a 15-minute show of dominance to claim a contract despite not finding a finish.
Tonight’s card, which kicks off at 8 p.m. ET on ESPN+, sees Ring of Combat Middleweight champion Jhonoven Pati (6-3) take on Jamie Pickett (10-4), the latter of whom returns to the Contender Series cage for the third time after two unsuccessful bids. The co-feature pits interim Titan FC Lightweight champ Rafael Alves (18-9) against Combate standout Alejandro Flores (17-2), while Jeffrey Molina (7-2) takes on Fury FC Flyweight titlist Jacob Silva one fight prior. Finally, unbeaten Canadian Lightweight Anthony Romero (7-0) fights LFA vet Mike Breeden (8-2) and Minnesotan Middleweight finisher Collin Huckbody locks horns with Kyron Bowen (9-4).
