The final installment of Season 4 of Dana White’s Contender Series is now official, as all 10 athletes slated for competition hit their contracted marks on Monday.
Buys has won four consecutive outings since falling to Joby Sanchez on Season 1 of the Contender Series in August 2017. Most recently, the 24-year-old Fortis MMA product scored a 73-second TKO of Cristian Rodriguez at LFA 78 in November 2019.
Silva, meanwhile, will be competing on his second Contender Series show of 2020 after dropping a unanimous verdict against Jeff Molina on Aug. 25. That setback snapped a six-bout winning streak for the former Fury Fighting Championship title holder.
