Yeah , hes gotten lots of complaints from fighters already. I hope Sefo dumps him before his name gets tarnished.

Maybe Lewis Gonzalez is a solid prospect but nobody has heard of him - he should not be leading the card. At minimum he should get an impressive win televised on WSOF.  Then at least fans will have heard of the guy and could be like "Oh that Gonzalez guy is headlining, I can't wait to see him again."

I like this card. In terms of name-value it is not very good, but it has some solid fights on it. This isn't a card that I will FORCE myself to make time to watch, but if I have nothing better to do, I will gladly watch it.

More often than not, the cards with the least amount of talent still end up being very entertaining. It's all about matchups.

A lot of times it seems like they stack some cards to the sky, and some cards, like this one, not so much. The UFC does that with PPVs too (177/178) but usually not this bad. Okami is supposed to fight for the title at WSOF 15 though, should be good.

Of course some cards will be better than others, but this one truly is dismal, with no top prospects and no proven commodities to speak of.

I'm thinking the winner of Palomino vs Lewis will get the winner of Gaethje vs Guillard so their trying to promote them in that area. Sounds about right to me.
