The last episode Dana White’s Contender series Season 10 went down without a hitch earlier tonight (Tuesday, October 13, 2026) on Paramount+ live from Meta Apex in Las Vegas, Nevada, but things didn’t go well for Aline Pereira, sister of former UFC champion Alex Pereira.
It seems like we’ve been talking about Pereira’s sister fighting her way into the UFC for a long time now, but on Tuesday night she officially had her chance to punch her ticket to the big show and join “Poatan” on the UFC roster. However, it was not going to be easy as Pereira was facing young prospect Smilla Sundellwho has looked like a wrecking ball in his first two pro fights.
Unfortunately for Pereira, he was unable to advance at all in this fight. Sundell’s forward movement, pace and high volume were evident as soon as the fight began. Pereira delivered some solid check left hooks and uppercuts that landed and did some noticeable damage, but nothing that stood out. He generally seemed limited in his offense and couldn’t mix things up enough to gain sustained momentum.
In the end, it was Sundell who did more than enough over three rounds to win and walk away with the biggest win of his career to date. Additionally, Sundell has earned a UFC contract with her win and is a welcome sight for a fresh-faced women’s bantamweight division.
