DWCS 92 Staff Picks: Welterweight Finishers Clash in Exciting Main Event
The Meta Apex welcomes some of the brightest unsigned talent outside of the UFC for DWCS 92.
At the top of the card on DWCS 92, Ecuadorian standout Mayton Perea locks horns with the undefeated Zevan Hunt. In the co-main event, seasoned middleweight prospects Igor Cavalcanti and Oscar Ravello collide in a stellar striking matchup.
DWCS 92 Main Event
Logging all finishes in every single one of his wins, Perea has made it a habit to avoid the judge’s scorecards by any means necessary. Eager to join his countrymen Michael Morales and Marlon Vera in the UFC, “The Lion” is coming to put on a breakthrough performance at DWCS 92.
Perfect as a professional, Hunt first made a name for himself after almost exclusively competing in the Rage in the Cage organization as both an amateur and a professional, winning their welterweight title six times. Seeking to add a UFC championship to his collection, “Cheese” puts his seven-fight win streak on the line this Tuesday.
DWCS 92 Co-Main Event
Winner of two straight, Calvalcanti’s road back to the Contender Series has been a long one after losing his first appearance on the show to Seok Hyeon Ko back in 2024. With his last pair of outings to the cage ending in the first round, “Jacaré” wants nothing more than to set the record straight that he is worthy of entering the UFC.
Earning his opportunity to fight at DWCS 92 off the back of two title bout victories, Ravello has climbed his way into the international spotlight after a marvelous 13-3-1 run on the regional circuit. Possessing seven triumphs by knockout and three by submission, “The Punisher” is certainly must-see television for UFC fans expecting spectacular stoppages.
More Bouts on the DWCS 92 Card
Rounding out the card, Akbar Abdullaev faces off with Ednilson Santos. Then, Luis Hernandez takes on Hugo Guillon. Also, Tyshawn Williams comes to blows with Antônio Monteiro.
