Jason vs Uchel. Joao Zeferino

Entering the World Series of Fighting decagon cage for the third time, y 5-droed-9, 34-year-old High of Kansas City, Chi. 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.

High followed up the victory with an inspiring comeback against fellow starMike Ricci. After taking punishment for the majority of each of the first two rounds, High went on the offensive and scored a devastating TKO on Ricci with an onslaught of punches in the second round (4:08) of their WSOF31 meeting on Mehefin 17.

The 5-foot-11, 30-year-old Zeferino of Middletown, N.Y.. via Florianopolis, Santa Catarina, Brazil has earned a remarkable 15 o 20 gyrfa yn ennill drwy gyflwyno.

The Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt finished as runner-up in the first-ever World Series of Fighting one-night, eight-man tournament on November 20, 2015, suffering a second round (4:51) KO (punches) loss in the event’s championship round at the hands of Brian Foster, whom Zeferino had handily defeated earlier that night in the first stage of the tournament, ar ffurf cylch cyntaf (1:46) cyflwyniad (bachyn sawdl).

Following the win over Foster, Zeferino notched another first round (1:24) heel hook submission, this time on Jorge "Macaco" Patino, in the semifinal stage of the tournament. The result marked Zeferino’s seventh consecutive victory.

John Howard vs. Abubakar Nurmagomedov

Mae'r 5-droed-7, 33-year-old Howard of Boston, Offeren. is coming off a successful World Series of Fighting debut on Mehefin 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, Neuadd Uriah ac 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 (punches) o 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 yn UFC 94 ar Ionawr 31, 2009.

Nurmagomedov of Makhachkala, Dagestan, Russia is a 6-foot, 26-year-old protégé of Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov, the father and trainer of UFC superstar Khabib Nurmagomedov, and a 2014 Combat Sambo World Championships bronze medalist.

When he faces Howard, Nurmagomedov will look for his fourth consecutive win in the World Series of Fighting decagon cage, and his fifth straight win overall, following his crushing, ail rownd (3:05) PWY (punches) oMatthew Frincu at WSOF30 on Ebrill 2.

Hyd yma, 10 of Nurmagomedov’s 12 career wins have come by way of either (T)KO neu gyflwyno.

Shawn Jordan vs. Ashley Gooch

The stocky, 6-droed, 31-year-old Jordan of Baton Rouge, Y. will make his much-anticipated debut for World Series of Fighting following a 10-fight stretch with the UFC, during which the heavy-handed fighter posted a strong, 6-4 overall record, with all of his wins coming by way of (T)KO.

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 ac 2007 national championship teams.

Gooch of Glendale, Ariz. earned his shot with World Series of Fighting as a result of his recent surge that has seen the 6-foot-3, 41-year-old emerge victorious in each of his last eight bouts, with all eight of the wins having come by way of (T)KO neu gyflwyno.

Gooch’s success of late has earned him the number one ranking in the heavyweight division in the New England region, as well as the number two ranking in the state of Arizona, according to Tapology.com.
