Background

The main event was originally scheduled to feature a middleweight fight between Yushin Okami and WSOF Canadian Welterweight Champion Ryan Ford.[1] However, Ford was forced out of the bout due to an injury and the pairing was scrapped.[2]

The main event was then changed to a WSOF Featherweight Championship fight between champion Lance Palmer and WEC & Bellator MMA veteran Chris Horodecki.

The co-main event featured a WSOF Heavyweight Championship fight between champion Smealinho Rama and Bellator MMA veteran Blagoy Ivanov.
