Champ Steve Carl meets Rousimar Palhares in WSOF 9 headliner

Was hoping they'd make him fight once first to earn the title shot but oh well.
 
hmm. Title shot on his first fight huh. It does make sense because Palhares beat a fairly high ranked WW in his debut.

They're putting a lot of trust in Palhares. Better hope he doesn't rip off Carls leg and then get kicked out of WSOF.
 
would like to see Carl win for personal reasons but don't think it happens. solid card though.
 
Palhares is too much for Carl to handle, he's losing his belt. Fitch and Burkman were nice wins for Carl but neither of them is as dangerous of an opponent at WW as Palhares is.
 
Damn, that's awesome. I have to admit I am a Palhares fan, dude is terrifying to watch.
 
I'm cool with it, I don't know the roster of WSOF but is there anybody else really?
 
Palhares via bonebreaking submission! Let's go Toquinho...and let the fuck go when you're told.
 
I figured they'd go with Fitch. Didn't they say they weren't going to give title shots to guys making their debut? There goes that notion. I still like this fight a lot though. Palhares is a dangerous fight for anyone.

Didn't Fitch refuse this fight before it was even offered?
 
Don't see Carl hurting him with strikes so I think we see the belt change hands.
