Bo Nickal officially earned a UFC contract on Tuesday during Dana White’s Contender Series, making very short work of Donovan Beard.
Nickal is a three-time NCAA Division I National Champion and won the U23 World Championship and the US Open National championship in 2019. He has since transitioned to MMA, where he is 3-0 following his victory over Beard. He’s finished all three opponents in less than 65 seconds.
Following his victory, Nickal called out Khamzat Chimaev, but wasn’t sure if Chimaev could make weight, and Logan Paul, who he’d be willing to fight in a WWE ring if they can’t fight in the UFC octagon.

Paul has competed in boxing contests, but never in MMA. He is currently set to challenge Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at WWE Crown Jewel.
It is unknown when Nickal will make his official UFC debut.
