Is there a Dana White Contender Series API?

Yes. Cito API exposes DWCS events, bouts, results, and fighter stats through its UFC endpoints. Open a Contender Series card by its event slug to get every bout on it.

Can I test the DWCS API for free?

Yes. Create a free Cito API key and test with 500 requests/month before upgrading to a paid plan.

Does the DWCS API include fighter stats?

Yes. Completed Contender Series bouts include significant strikes, takedowns, control time, knockdowns, and round-by-round stat rows where available.

How do I find a specific DWCS fight?

Call /api/v1/ufc/events to list cards, then /api/v1/ufc/events/{eventIdOrSlug}/bouts for the bout list, and /api/v1/ufc/bouts/{boutId} for one fight's result.

Can I use the DWCS API with Claude, Cursor, or ChatGPT?

Yes. The Cito MCP server exposes the UFC and DWCS endpoints as tools, so any MCP-compatible client can look up cards, bouts, and fighter stats with your API key. Setup is one command in the MCP docs.

How much does the DWCS API cost after the free tier?

The free key includes 500 requests a month. Paid plans start at $15 a month for one game, with Pro at $59 a month for higher volume. See the pricing page for current limits.
