Week 8 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.

Undefeated middleweight Torrez Finney will have a third chance at entering the UFC through Dana White’s Contender Series. Finney (9-0) was recently snubbed on a UFC contract offering from promotion CEO Dana White at DWCS 68 on Aug. 20. After winning a unanimous decision over Cam Rowston, White was not impressed with Finney’s second performance on the show, stating, “You get absolutely decimated in the UFC with the performance you put on tonight.” In addition, White criticized Finney for only taking one fight since his first DWCS appearance last October, where he submitted Yuri Panferov in the second round. However, all hope is not lost for Finney, as he will get another crack at earning a contract, joining Don’Tale Mayes and Jamie Pickett as three-time DWCS fighters. At DWCS 74 on Oct.
