WSOF 22 weigh-in results – Palhares vs Shields
WSOF 22 weigh-ins begin today at 7 p.m. ET (4 p.m. PT) at the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas.
The main card airs on NBCSN following prelims on MyMMANews.com.
The main event is a battle of crafty jiu-jitsu experts Rousimar Palhares and Jake Shields going at it for Palhares’ WSOF welterweight title.
Palhares (17-6) is one of the most dangerous submission artists in the game while Shields (31-7-1) is no slouch on the ground either. Will the strength of Palhares be enough to submit a fighter with a pedigree like Shields?
In the co-main event bantamweight titleholder Marlon Moraes meets Sheymon Moraes. The champion is on a seven fight WSOF win streak while his opponent who bears the same last name is undefeated with four of his seven wins coming via KO or TKO.
