WSOF 27 results recap: Video highlights, gifs and more for 'Future Champs'

The latest event for World Series of Fighting (WSOF) took place earlier tonight (Sat., Jan. 23, 2016) inside the FedEx Forum in Memphis, Tennessee, airing live on NBC Sports Network. They called this edition WSOF 27 'Future Champs'.

The main event was a crucial Lightweight showdown. 'The Future' Caros Fodor brought a 10-4 record into his Decagon debut, but late replacement opponent Luiz 'Buscape' Firmino was a seasoned WSOF veteran at 18-6, undefeated inside the Decagon against tough fighters like Jacob Volkmann and Tyson Griffin.

Firmino executed the strategy we've seen him use successfully in so many fights - get takedowns, get some more takedowns, and do just enough on top to not get stood up.
