World Series of Fighting 1's four-fight main card, seven prelims set

The lineup is set for World Series of Fighting's debut show.

In all WSOF 1 features 11 bouts, including four that air on NBC Sports Network (formerly Versus).

As previously announced, the heavyweight headliner features Andrei Arlovski (17-9) vs. Devin Cole (20-9-1), and light heavyweights Anthony Johnson (13-4) and D.J. Linderman (14-3) meet in the co-headliner.

Rounding out the main card are bantamweights Miguel Torres (40-5) vs. Marlon Moraes (8-4-1) and welterweights Gregor Gracie (7-2) vs. Tyson Steele (8-1).

The event takes place Nov. 3 at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas.

WSOF 1 initially was slated to go head to head with a Strikeforce event in Oklahoma City. However, following injuries to Showtime co-headliners Frank Mir and Luke Rockhold, officials scrapped the event this past week.

In the featured WSOF 1 preliminary-card bout, Tyron Spong, a veteran kick boxer with a 68-6-1 record, makes his MMA debut against light heavyweight Travis Bartlett (7-2). Additionally, Rony Torres (25-4) meets fellow UFC vet and lightweight Brian Cobb (19-7).

The rest of the prelims feature notables such as Gerald Harris, Gesias "JZ" Cavalcante, David Branch, Waylon Lowe and Steve Carl.

Sweet card. Glad they are not going head to head with SF card. I hope they do real well in the ratings and attendance with a card as solid as this. Hopefully they promote this well.
