World Series of Fighting (WSOF) picks up possible Bantamweight title contender Jesse Brock

World Series of Fighting (WSOF) 32: "Moraes vs. Hill 2" comes to Xfinity Arena in Everett, Wash., later this month (Sat., July 30, 2016), featuring a rematch between former Featherweight champion Lance Palmer against Alexandre Almeida. In addition, Bantamweight standouts Josh "The Gentleman" Hill will get a second crack at Marlon Moraes in the NBC Sports Network-televised main event of the evening.

Speaking of Bantamweights, WSOF pulled a bit of a surprise by announcing the signing of Jesse Brock, a fighter last seen submitting Olly Bradstreet via rear-naked choke at Bellator 155. Brock (22-8) turned in a one-sided performance at that fight that clearly turned heads, taking down Bradstreet with impunity and angling for submissions relentlessly until his exhausted and badly beaten opponent tapped out in round three.
