UFC adds Bo Nickal to Dana White’s Contender Series this summer, manager says

Not many 1-0 fighters get the chance to compete for a UFC contract, but Bo Nickal will.

According to his manager, Malki Kawa of First Round Management, Nickal (1-0) will compete this summer on Dana White’s Contender Series, expecting to be signed to the UFC as a result.

“He’s going to fight on the Contender (Series) next,” told MMA Underground at UFC X on Friday. “He’s fighting on the Contender next, at 1-0. He’s signed to the UFC, though. You’ve got to understand what I’m trying to tell you. Do you know what I mean? He’s on the Contender, but you know how that goes. Once he wins, he’s in.”
