Dear Dana White,

Hey man it's your friend Dana White here.

So, you wanna be an Ultimate Fighter? Well back in the day I used to go out around the world and scout new talent. I haven't done that since my show, "Dana White's Lookin' For A Fight", last episode. So me and the guys at the UFC, my co-partner Dana White, our producer Dana White, and our matchmaker Dana White, we all got together a year ago and thought "We should have a show where we showcase new and upcoming talent with the focus on the fighters." So we created "Dana White's Tuesday Night Contender Series Presented by Dana White" to do just that.

Then, we had a even crazier idea. We'll have the fights on a Tuesday night in Vegas because there's not much else to do in Vegas on a Tuesday other than lines of cocaine and paying for broken limo windows. THEN, we had an even more crazy idea, we're gonna hire Calvin "Snoop Dogg" Broadus, Jr. to be our commentator we'll try to hide away. Let me tell you, the WME buyout of my former partners (Dana White & Dana White) has helped elevate myself to a great position to do this sort of stuff.

We're back for Season 2 of Dana White's Tuesday Night Contender Series Presented by Dana White where we have even more opportunities for guys to get hired for "being a heavyweight." Tune in on UFC Fight Passto catch the fights.

Week 1 - June 12
Heavyweight - Alonzo Menifield vs. Dashawn Boatwright
Welterweight - Chris Curtis vs. Sean Lally
Heavyweight - Greg Hardy vs. Austen Lane
Bantamweight - Montel Jackson vs. Rico DiSciullo
Middleweight - Will Santiago vs. Kevin Holland



Sincerely,

Dana White

Season one was good as poo poo, looking forward to this one.

Aside from the higher profile fighters (e.g. Hardy, Newell, Shevchenko) is there anyone else people are high on?

Bisping is going to be a commentator for Dana White's Tuesday Night Contender Series Presented by Dana White. I haven't heard anything about a Snoopcast, so thats probably not coming back.

I'm about to go into a meeting for about an hour and a half, so I'll catch the replay, but I just want to say here that I hope Greg Hardy gets his rotten loving face smashed in. Go Austen Lane. Namaste.

Menifield and Hardy signed

Should’ve signed Montel. Other than the fouls he looked like the most prepared fighter.

Curtis seemed very Sam Alvey-ish in his ability to do very little for 2.5 rounds and then land one dumb strike

So he should have gotten signed

the better Greg hardy does the more loving stupid it is that he was signed in the first place. it's not like this was some questionable poo poo back in the 80s. this was a brutal beating of someone 120 lbs lighter than him 4 ago and he's been arrested once or twice since. It's bonkers that he got off absolutely scot free but the narrative is "second chance, I've changed." what loving second chance exactly? he should get a shot after he goes five rounds with a Silverback gorilla.
second chance my rear end.

We live in a world where Floyd Mayweather is celebrated as one of the greatest in the history of his sport, and his long history of domestic violence is a minor footnote.

If Greg Hardy was a better player, he would still be playing in the NFL, but his production dropped and he was apparently a pain in the rear end in the locker room, so he was no longer worth it. All those articles that were written pleading with the UFC to not sign him are just silly. If he can fight and stay out of jail, then he's going to be on the roster until he can no longer fight.

That Dwight Grant KO was excellent, he knocked him into next week. I was gonna be real mad if he didn't get a contract.

I know he was signed but Dana made it sound like they wanted to help him keep training for a while before he fights officially in the UFC.

Plus this just happened
