It’s all systems go for Week 4 of Dana White’s Contender Series.
All 10 athletes slated to compete hit their contracted marks without issue at Monday’s weigh-ins. That continues a positive trend for the 2024 iteration of the Contender Series, which has yet to see a mishap on the scales in its first four weeks.
The Contender Series takes place on Tuesday at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas an airs on ESPN+ at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT. The evening’s featured bout is a welterweight contest pitting Igor Cavalcanti (169.5) against Seok Hyun Ko (170).
Brazil’s Cacari has kicked off his professional tenure with nine straight triumphs. The Inside Fighters League 170-pound champion has finished all his victories inside of a round — seven via KO/TKO and two by way of submission.
A native of Busan, South Korea, Ko will take a three-bout finishing streak into the matchup with Cacari. The 28-year-old is coming off a 48-second KO win against Alwin Kincai under the Angel’s Fighting Championship banner this past December.
