By bringing together some of the top names that have not been signed with the company, the Contender Series seems to continue his search for the next most popular UFC outlook in DWCS 79. Headlining the Card, Trent Miller takes on Ryan Gandra, while Márcio Barbosa Damon Wilson draws.
DWCS 79 Main Event
Fighting from the accredited Xtreme Couture, Miller won his last two fights back in 2025, with his appearance on the Contender Series his third game of the year. Surrounded by some of the best hunters in the world in his home gymnastics, “The Terminator” did not have a shortage of world -class competitors to prepare him at the biggest moment of his career in the main event of DWCS 79.
Gandra lost in his second professional competition in 2022 and enjoyed an extensive stay in the win column and took six wins in a row. With four first round stops, it might not be a ‘problem’ at all to strengthen his place in the promotion with a different highlight role performance during DWCS 79.
DWCS 79 Co-Main event
A veteran of nearly 20 fights, Barbosa has claimed that he is being advertised as one of the best featherweight athletes in all Brazilian mixed martial arts. ‘Ticotô’ can get the chance to show his capacities on the biggest stage in sport, can make four triumphs in his last five if he would achieve this Tuesday at DWCS 79.
A common face for the American public of Cage Warriors, Wilson had started in the long term in the organization established in England, where he had registered ten trips to the cage under their banner. Apparently ready to test itself in a new more challenging environment, “The Nomad” is now trying to make his business the best mixed martial artists on £ 145.
