In total, 10 athletes were chosen, distributed across different UFC categories. Men and women have a chance of reaching a title shot next season.

In flies (up to 56,7kg.), attention is to Deiveson Figueiredo e Alexandre pantoja. While the man from Pará already has a title fight scheduled, his compatriot has been talking about a fight for the belt.
