The World Series of Fighting is returning to network television in July, bringing a highlights show entitled "WSOF Unstoppable: The Road Ahead" to NBC on July 11.
The 4PM ET broadcast will highlight six of the organization's Champions. Middleweight Dave Branch and bantamweight Marlon Moraes will be in studio with hosts Bas Rutten, Renzo Gracie, and Todd Harris, while lightweight Justin Gaethje, welterweight Rousimar Palhares, featherweight Lance Palmer, and recently crowned Heavyweight Champ Blagoi Ivanov will all be featured during the two-hour broadcast as well.
"We are excited to deliver another hard-hitting compilation of the most memorable, recent bouts featuring WSOF's collection of dynamic world champions and other superstars," said WSOF President Ray Sefo in a press release. "NBC has been an incredible partner and highly instrumental in building the WSOF brand over the course of the last two and a half years, and the 'Unstoppable' series is a testimony to their commitment to our company and the sport of MMA."
The program will serve as promotional material for their next event, WSOF 22, which comes to Las Vegas with a headlining bout between Rousimar Palhares and Jake Shields on August 1.
