NEW YORK – Dana White thinks Bo Nickal needs to slow his role after UFC 309. Nickal (7-0 MMA, 4-0 UFC) remained unbeaten when he outstruck Paul Craig (17-9-1 MMA, 9-9-1 UFC) on Saturday’s main card at Madison Square Garden – the first time he goes to the judges’ scorecards.

Nickal was heralded as the UFC’s next big superstar after back-to-back quick finishes on Dana White’s Contender Series. After Nickal finished his first DWCS opponent in just over a minute, White opted to give Nickal another chance to gain additional experience, submitting Donovan Beard in his second DWCS showcase.
