After a month break, World Series of Fighting (WSOF) is returning with another free televised event, this time in Connecticut this Saturday night on October 17th. WSOF 24 will feature the number one welterweight contender match between former UFC title challengers Yushin Okami and Jon Fitch. Okami is dropping down to the welterweight division for the first time while Fitch is looking to continue his road to redemption after losing his title bout to Rousimar Palhares nine months ago. The winner of this bout will face Jake Shields for the vacant title sometime next year. The co-main event is a heavyweight title clash between champion Blagoi Ivanov and challenger Derrick Mehmen. Ivanov earned the crown with an impressive showing against Smealinho Rama earlier this year, while Mehmen has won three of four fights under the WSOF banner and is coming off a victory over former Strikeforce standout Brett Rogers earlier this year. The remaining WSOF 24 card features popular attractions like “Notorious” Nick Newell, a light heavyweight scrap between UFC vets Vinny Magalheas and Matt Hamill and even former featherweight champion Rick Glenn in the main event of the preliminary card.
