LAS VEGAS – MMA Junkie was on scene and reporting live from Tuesday’s Dana White’s Contender Series 49 event. Dana White’s Contender Series cards see prospects fighting for the opportunity to sign a UFC deal, with UFC president Dana White on hand to make the decisions. The third week of the sixth season saw 10 fighters compete for their shot at a UFC contract. In the featured bout, three-time Division I All American wrestler and MMA super prospect Bo Nickal (2-0) took on Zachary Borrego (4-1) in a catchweight bout after Borrego missed the middleweight limit by 1.5 pounds. Nickal dominated and earned a quick submission win, but was not offered a UFC contract by White. Instead, Nickal will be invited back for another DWCS fight, and White said if he wins that one, he will be in the UFC.
