WSOF 16: Rousimar Palhares-Jon Fitch, Rick Glenn-Lance Palmer Title Fights Official

By FCF Staff

World Series of Fighting has announced that as expected, the promotion’s 16th event will feature welterweight champion Rousimar Palhares taking on Jon Fitch. In addition, the December 13th card will also see featherweight champ Rick Glenn face Lance Palmer.

The venue for the upcoming event has yet to be determined.

Palhares (16-6) laid claim to the welterweight title in March by quickly tapping out Steve Carl at WSOF 9.

Fitch (26-6-1), meanwhile, is coming off a unanimous decision win over Dennis Hallmann in July.

Glenn (15-2-1) will be competing for the first time since he won the featherweight title in June, by stopping Georgi Karakhanyan.

Palmer (8-1) rebounded from a submission loss to Karakhanyan in June, by tapping out Nick Lobosco with a first round, rear-naked-choke.

The main card for WSOF 16 will be broadcast on the NBC Sports Network.
