Nick Newell will get a shot at a UFC contract. Per Dana White, he'll be offered a fight on the Tuesday Night Contender Series in June.

 

Well... he gets his shot at a shot at the ufc. Still cool though.

cm punk?

Good deal, I think it’s all he wanted.

cool I guess, they should just sign him though.

Excellent 

Well deserved

Good for Nick. He deserves it.

about time.

It’s kind of a shot. He could win and look great and still not get in.

I’m rooting for him though.

Wat Nick Newell!

Dudes a winner and will win some fights. 

Wikipedia says Nick has a 74" reach. I find that hard to believe...

They better be careful not to match him against anyone decent

Obviously haven't watched nick fight before. 

Can Newell use the UFC's deep pockets and medical connections to get a cybernetic arm?

Yeah, he gave Gaethje a tough fight, and that's Nick's only professional loss.

Tuff dude for sure and deserves his shot but it’s hard to watch for me.

Did he? I didn't see that fight but read that it was a bit one sided. 

Still, no shame in losing to Justin!

He didn't, but he didn't get smoked either.

If Fallon fox can fight women I see no reason Newell can't fight with a cybernetic arm, with the addition of Doctor Octopus tentacles on his back. Seems fair.
