Anthony Wint Makes Weight For DWCS Debut

Former New York Jets linebacker Anthony Wint successfully made weight for his Dana White's Contender Series debut Tuesday in Las Vegas.

Wint, who carries a 6-0 record into his DWCS appearance, stepped on the scale at 234 pounds ahead of his heavyweight clash with Matthew Adams at the UFC Apex, Sherdog reports. Adams weighed 235.5 pounds for the Season 10 opener, which airs live on Paramount+ at 7 p.m. ET on Aug. 11.

Wint Brings Unbeaten Streak Into DWCS Headliner

The undefeated prospect has finished five of six professional opponents since making his MMA debut in 2023. Adams enters on a rebound after his five-fight winning streak ended with a submission loss in an LFA title fight against Arslan Bilalov. He answered that setback with a first-round knockout in March.

Four additional bouts round out the card. Fabrizio Escarrega weighed 156 pounds against Abe Alsaghir's 155.5. Bilal Hasan came in at 125 pounds, while Mridul Saikia hit 125.5. Tom Pagliarulo and Ananias Mulumba both made 145.5 and 145 respectively for their featherweight matchup. Jonathan Kunneman and Joseph Kropschot each weighed 185.5 pounds for the middleweight bout.

All ten fighters made their contracted weights with no issues. The Season 10 kickoff marks the tenth year of the promotion's developmental series, which begins its latest run of Tuesday night showcases from the Apex.
