WORLD SERIES OF FIGHTING Returns to NBCSN Tomorrow

WORLD SERIES OF FIGHTING returns to NBCSN tomorrow, Friday, April 10, live at 9 p.m. ET, highlighted by a light heavyweight bout between David Branch (15-3) and Ronny Markes(15-3). Branch, the reigning WSOF middleweight champion, moved up in weight to compete in the four-man tournament for the inaugural WSOF light heavyweight title. The winner of tomorrow's bout moves on to faceTeddy Holder, who scored a KO win over Thiago Silva, for the belt.

The co-main event features Joe Condon (12-7) facing "Notorious" Nick Newell (11-1) in a lightweight bout. Newell, who fights with one fully-developed arm due to a birth condition known as congenital amputation, has won 10 of his 12 MMA career bouts in the first round. Condon comes off a third-round victory against Johnny Nunez in WSOF 17 in January.

Saturday's card also features bouts between Ben Fodor (aka "Phoenix Jones," 5-0-1) and Emmanuel Walo (7-2-1), fighting at a catchweight of 175 pounds; Juliano "Banana" Coutinho (6-1) and Steve Mocco (4-1) in the heavyweight division; and Ozzy Dugulubgov (6-2) and Lucas Montoya (8-3) in the lightweight division.
