Dana White’s Contender Series standout Luis Saldana has his first UFC assignment. The promotion is currently targeting a fight between Saldana (14-6 MMA, 0-0 UFC) and Jordan Griffin for the UFC Fight Night event on April 10, which takes place at an unannounced location and venue. Two people with knowledge of the matchup recently informed MMA Junkie of the targeted booking but asked to remain anonymous as the promotion has yet to make an official announcement. MMA DNA was first to report the news. Saldana earned his UFC contract with a vicious knockout of Team Alpha Male’s Vince Murdock on DWCS last November. Following two consecutive front kicks to the face, Saldana finished Murdock with punches in Round 3

LAS VEGAS — Luis Saldana ’s big finish on Dana White’s Contender Series 34 was quickly overshadowed just one fight later. Saldana (14-6) stopped Vince Murdock in the third round on Wednesday, where a front kick to the face, followed by a crisp right hand, spelled the beginning of the end for Murdock. The finish earned Saldana a UFC contract but, in the following fight, Ignacio Bahamondes landed a walk-off front kick knockout, for the night’s best finish. When asked if watching Bahamondes execute the same move in even more emphatic fashion annoyed him, Saldana laughed and nodded his head. “Yeah!” Saldana told reporters, including MMA Junkie, at the DWCS 34 post-fight news conference at the UFC Apex. “I saw the guy who fought after me, but I was like, ‘Oh, damn!’” Nonetheless, it was a slick and technical performance by Saldana who, after figuring out Murdock through the first two rounds, was able to put him away in the third to cap off an impressive showing
