Vendrede, Septembro 18

LASa VEGAS (#A?gusto 11, 2015) – World Series of Batalanta (WSOF.com) rising star and costumed crime fighter Phoenix Jones (5-1-1) will return to the decagon cage to take on Roberto Yong (2-2) in a 160-pound catchweight contest on the live, NBCSN-televised main card of “WSOF 23: Gaethje vs. Palomino II” at Comerica Theatre in Phoenix, Ariz. Vendrede, Sept. 18.

Headlined by a previously announced and much-anticipated rematch between undefeated, reigning World Series of Fighting World Lightweight (155 Funtoj) Senegala Justin “The Highlight” Gaethje (14-0) and hard-hitting rival Ludoviko "Baboon" Palomino (23-10), the star-studded event features a second title fight, the inaugural World Series of Fighting world light heavyweight (205 Funtoj) championship bout between David Branĉo (16-3) Kaj Teddy Holder (11-7).

Priced from just $39.99, tickets for “WSOF 23: Gaethje vs. Palomino II” are on sale at the Comerica Theatre box office and online at WSOF.com and Ticketmaster.com.

The 27-year-old Jones of Seattle, Lavo. has received national media attention for his heroic deeds as a volunteer crime fighter who patrols his local streets, clad in a full-body suit and mask, in an effort to assist others in distress and curb every day street crimes.

Jones made his World Series of Fighting debut on April 10, coming up short in a unanimous decision against Emmanuel Walo in a 175-pound catchweight contest. The upcoming bout will be contested at a weight closer to Jones’ natural fighting weight of 155 Funtoj.

Yong, De Glendale, Ariz. is a former professional boxer focused on establishing a career in MMA. The 31-year-old opened his professional MMA career with back-to-back KO victories.

Yong has since stumbled against longtime Veterana Estevan Payan and prospect Joel Champion Sed, like Jones, will look to return to the win column by dropping below the welterweight (170 Funtoj) limit.

The live NBCSN telecast of “WSOF 23: Gaethje vs. Palomino II” begins at 7:00 P.M. ET / 4 p.m. PT vendrede, Septembro 18.

Doors at Comerica Theatre will open for “WSOF 23” at 3:00 P.M. MT and the first preliminary card bout will begin at 3:45 P.M.

Additional bouts for the event will be announced soon.
