Dana White reacts after 8-1 underdog scores wild upset finish on Contender Series: “I love this sh*t”
White hands out more deals
“I mean, do we even have to do this one? You [Danylo Voievodkin] were an 8/1 underdog! 8/1 underdog! I love this s***. I love when guys come out and beat the oddsmakers. Oddmakers don’t determine heart, determination, how bad somebody really wants something, you do. You did it tonight my friend, welcome to the UFC.”
There’s something special about the Contender Series and that’s been the case for many years now. While The Ultimate Fighter can be a good way to put your name on the map, it doesn’t have the same appeal that it once did. Therefore, if it’s a case of winning one fight in impressive fashion in order to get your foot in the door, a lot of fighters will want to pursue that.
