UFC Saudi Arabia: Terrance McKinney now has 6 UFC first-round finishes – and 0 bonuses

BAD MMA News — Sat, 01 Feb 2025 20:50:46 +0000

The UFC handed out four bonuses after Saturday’s card, but once again passed over a fighter who always finishes his wins. Left off the list was Terrance McKinney , who had a first-round TKO of Damir Hadzovic on the prelims for his 12th straight first-round finish in his wins. Six of those have come in the UFC, including one in 7 seconds and one in 20 seconds – yet none of them, including Saturday’s finish, have been worthy of an official post-fight bonus. After UFC Fight Night 250, four fighters picked up an extra $50,000 for their performances in Saudi Arabia.

Dana White’s Contender Series 69: Grading the winners

BAD MMA News — Wed, 28 Aug 2024 15:09:47 +0000

Week 3 of Dana White’s Contender Series (2024) took place on Tuesday in Las Vegas, and we’re grading the winners from the five-fight card, which streamed on ESPN+ from the UFC Apex. With a simple but digestible format that has had the MMA fanbase responding, this series has shown to have legs in multiple ways while serving as a crockpot for contenders the UFC matchmakers can use to fill their roster for future events. With that trend in mind, I once again will be taking a look at the winning fighters, regardless of whether or not they won a UFC contract, and grading their performances in regard to their probability of returning to a UFC stage.
