The last episode of this season's Dana White Contender Series is finally upon us.

Dana White's Contender Series Week 10 Preview

It's been 10 straight weeks of fights for the UFC with prospects from every corner of the world competing for a chance at a UFC contract. Tonight, 10 fighters from 7 different countries get that very shot inside the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Fight Card

The main event of the evening is a middleweight matchup between Nick Klein (5-1) and Heraldo Souza (9-1-1), who have only seen the distance once in their careers. Fury FC alumni are in the co-headliner as Nick Piccininni (7-0) meets fellow undefeated prospect Luis Gurule (9-0).

Piccininni was scheduled to rematch Jack Duffy after winning by split decision on a previous episode in August but Duffy withdrew, leaving Gurule to step in on short notice - an opportunity of a lifetime.

Another fighter from Fury FC's booming regional scene is "The Cuban Problem" Yadier DelValle (7-0), who's been on a tear, never having lost in 11 fights from the amateurs to the pros. The 28 year-old takes on Brazil's Antonio Monteiro (17-4-1).

Week 10 of #DWCS is HERE 👊

Don't miss the final fights of Season 8!
