9. Jon Fitch vs. Josh Burkman
Gary A. Vasquez-USA TODAY Sports
When: June 14
Where: World Series of Fighting 3
Two UFC veterans main event the third installment of World Series of FIghting, when recently-released Jon Fitch takes on WSOF veteran Josh Burkman.
Fitch was released from the UFC following his latest outing which was a loss to Demian Maia. He has won just once since 2011, going 1-2-1 in that stretch.
Since Burkman's departure from the UFC, he has stayed busy going 7-1, including WSOF wins over UFC veterans Gerald Harris and Aaron Simpson. Burkman now gets a chance at redemption, as he lost to Fitch at UFC Fight Night 4 in 2006.
Both men are wrestlers, so that may cancel out into a striking battle. Otherwise it could be a grinding, hold-them-against-the-cage fight that elicits boos.
