Entering the World Series of Fighting decagon cage for the third time, ang 5-foot-9, 34-year-old High of Kansas City, Ikaw. has been nothing short of spectacular in his first two starts.

In his promotional debut at WSOF25 on November 20, 2015, the UFC and Strikeforce veteran and 2009 DREAM Grand Prix tournament runner-up scored a highlight reel KO on Estevan Payan with a head kick-punches combination in the second round (:47) of their matchup.

John Howard vs. Abubakar Nurmagomedov

Ang 5-foot-7, 33-year-old Howard of Boston, Misa. is coming off a successful World Series of Fighting debut on Hunyo 17 when he earned a unanimous decision over Michael Arrant.

A 14-fight veteran of the UFC, Howard triumphed over the likes of Dennis "Superman" Hallman, Si Urias Hall ug Siyar Bahadurzada over the course of two different stints with the promotion, and earned “Knockout of the Night” honors for his first round (2:01) KO (kinumo) sa Daniel Roberts at the ‘UFC Live’ event on March 21, 2010, as well as a “Fight of the Night” award following his split decision win over Chris Wilson sa UFC 94 sa Enero 31, 2009.

A veteran of Strikeforce and Bellator action as well, Jordan is an accomplished athlete who earned a football scholarship to Louisiana State University (LSU) where he was a member of both the 2003 ug 2007 national championship teams.
